will sound. If the ignition switch is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, providing the system
fault still exists. The "Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light" will turn off when the fault condi-
tion no longer exists. A system fault can occur
by any of the following:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driv-
ing next to facilities emitting the same Radio
Frequencies as the TPM sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermarket window
tinting that affects radio wave signals.
3. Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or
wheel housings.
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM
sensors.
NOTE:
There is no tire pressure monitoring sensor
in the spare tire. The TPMS will not be able to
monitor the tire pressure. If you install the
spare tire, in place of a road tire, that has a
pressure below the low-pressure warning
limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, a
chime will sound, a "TIRE LOW PRESSURE"
message will be displayed in the instrument
cluster, and the "Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light" will turn ON. After driving the
vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(25 km/h), the "Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light" will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" mes-
sage will be displayed. For each subsequent
ignition switch cycle, a chime will sound, a
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message will be
displayed, and the "Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light" will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. Once
you repair or replace the original road tire,
and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the
spare tire, the TPMS will update automati-
cally and the "Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light" will turn OFF, as long as no tire
pressure is below the low-pressure warning
limit in any of the four active road tires. The
vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order
for the TPMS to receive this information.
Premium System – If Equipped
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses
wireless technology with wheel rim-mounted
electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure lev-
els. Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of
the valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings
to the Receiver Module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important, for you to regu-
larly check the tire pressure in all of your
tires and to maintain the proper pressure.
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) con-
sists of the following components:
• Receiver Module
• Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors
• Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light
• Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Messages, which display in the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC), and a
graphic displaying tire pressures
