524 STARTING AND OPERATING
also increase as the vehicle is driven; this is normal and
there should be no adjustment for this increased pres-
sure.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure if
the tire pressure falls below the low pressure warning
threshold for any reason, including low temperature
effects, or natural pressure loss through the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low tire
pressure as long as the condition exists, and will not turn
off until the tire pressure is at or above recommended
cold placard pressure. Once the "Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light" has been illuminated, the tire pressure
must be increased to the recommended cold placard
pressure in order for the "Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light" to be turned OFF.
NOTE: When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may
need to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (30 kPa)
above the recommended cold placard pressure in order
to turn the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light off.
The system will automatically update and the "Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light" will extinguish once
the updated tire pressures have been received. The
vehicle may need to be driven for up to 10 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h) to receive this information.
For example, your vehicle may have a recommended
cold (parked for more than three hours) air pressure of 35
psi (241 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C)
and the measured tire pressure is 30 psi (207 kPa), a
temperature drop to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tire
pressure to approximately 26 psi (179 kPa). This tire
pressure is sufficiently low enough to turn ON the "Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light." Driving the vehicle
may cause the tire pressure to rise to approximately 30
