Tyre Pressure Monitor
This vehicle may have a Tyre
Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The low tyre pressure warning light
alerts to a significant loss in
pressure of one of the vehicle's
tyres. If the warning light comes on,
stop as soon as possible and inflate
the tyres to the recommended
pressure shown on the Tyre and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits on page 9-14.
The warning light will remain on until
the tyre pressure is corrected.
The low tyre pressure warning light
may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
may be an early indicator that the
tyre pressures are getting low and
the tyres need to be inflated to the
proper pressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal
monthly tyre maintenance. Maintain
the correct tyre pressures.
See Tyre Pressure Monitor System
on page 10-44.
Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates
engine oil life based on vehicle use
and displays the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message when it is time
to change the engine oil and filter.
The oil life system should be reset
to 100% only following an oil
change.
In Brief
Resetting the Oil Life System
After you change the oil, the oil life
system will need to be reset. See
your dealer for service.
See Engine Oil Life System on
page 10-9.
