The TPMS is not a substitu te for prop er tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver ’s resp onsibility to maintain
correct tire pressu re using an accurate tire gau ge, even
if und er-inflation has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the “Tire Pressu re Monitoring Telltale
Light.”
The Tire Pressu re Monitor System (TPMS) consists of the
follow ing components:
•
Receiver Mod ule
• 4 Tire Pressu re Monitoring Sensors
Tire Pressu re Monitoring Telltale Light
•
Seasonal tem peratu re changes will affect tire pressu re,
and the TPM system will monitor the actu al tire
pressu re in the tire.

spare tire can be used in place of any of the four road
tires. A low spare tire will not cause the “Tire Pressu re
Monitoring Telltale Light” to illuminate or the chim e to

The Tire Pressu re Monitor System (TPMS) uses wireless
technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to
monitor tire pressu re levels. Sensors, mounted to each
wheel as part of the valve stem , transm it tire pressu re
read ings to the Receiver Mod ule.
The “Tire Pressu re Monitoring Telltale Light” will
illuminate in the instru ment cluster, and an au-
dible chim e will be activated when one or more of
the four active road tire pressu res are low. Shou ld this
occur, you shou ld stop as soon as possible, check the
NOTE: It is particu larly important, for you to check the
tire pressu re in all of you r tires regu larly and to maintain
the prop er pressu re.
