Tire Pressure Monitoring

System

í

The tire pressure monitoring system

(TPMS) monitors the pressure for each

tire.

If tire pressure is too low in one or more

tires, the system will inform the driver via

the warning light in the instrument panel

and by the warning beep sound.

The tire pressure sensors installed on each

wheel send tire pressure data by radio

signal to the receiver unit in the vehicle.

Tire pressure sensors

NOTE

When the ambient temperature is low

due to seasonal changes, tire

temperatures are also lower. If the tire

temperature lowers, the air pressure

lowers as well, and the TPMS warning

light illuminates more frequently.

Inspect the tire pressure daily before

driving, and check the tire pressures

monthly with a tire pressure gauge.

When checking the tire pressures, use

of a digital tire pressure gauge is

recommended.

TPMS does not alleviate your need to

check the pressure and condition of all

four tires before you drive each day.

CAUTION

l

When the tire pressure monitoring

system warning light is lit, one or

more of your tires is significantly

under-inflated. You should stop and

check your tires as soon as possible,

and inflate them to the proper

pressure as indicated on the vehicle's

tire information placard. Driving on

a significantly under-inflated tire

causes the tire to overheat and can

lead to tire failure. Under-inflation

also reduces fuel efficiency and tire

tread life, and may affect the

vehicle's handling and stopping

ability. Each tire should be checked

monthly when cold and set to the

recommended inflation pressure as

specified in the vehicle placard and

owner's manual.

l

To avoid false readings, the system

samples for a little while before

indicating a problem. As a result it

will not instantan eously register a

rapid tire deflation or blow out.
