What to do in an emergency
detect or signal low tyre pressure as
intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a vari -
ety of reasons, including the installation
of replacement or alternate tyres or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more tyres or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that
the replacement or alternate tyres and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
When the tyre pressure monitoring sys -
tem warning indicators are illuminated
and warning message displayed on the
cluster LCD display, one or more of your
tyres is significantly under-inflated. The
low tyre pressure position telltale light
will indicate which tyre is significantly
under-inflated by illuminating the corre -
sponding position light.
If either telltale illuminates, immediately
reduce your speed, avoid hard cornering
and anticipate increased stopping dis -
tances. You should stop and check your
tyres as soon as possible. Inflate the
tyres to the proper pressure as indicated
on the vehicle's placard or tyre inflation
pressure label located on the driver's
side centre pillar outer panel. If you can -
not reach a service station or if the tyre
cannot hold the newly added air, replace
the low pressure tyre with a spare tyre.
If you drive the vehicle for about 10 min -
utes at speeds above 25 km/h after
replacing the low pressure tyre with the
spare tyre, one of the following will hap -
pen:

blink for approximately 1 minute and
then remain continuously illuminated
because the TPMS sensor is not
mounted on the spare wheel.
