affects vehicle handling and ride

comfort. Never load your vehicle

with more weight than it was

designed to carry.

When to Check

Check your tires once a month

or more.

How to Check

Use a good quality pocket-type

gauge to check tire pressure. You

cannot tell if your tires are properly

inflated simply by looking at them.

Radial tires may look properly

inflated even when they're

underinflated. Check the tire's

inflation pressure when the tires are

cold. Cold means your vehicle has

been sitting for at least three hours

or driven no more than 1.6 km

(1 mile).

Remove the valve cap from the tire

valve stem. Press the tire gauge

firmly onto the valve to get a

pressure measurement. If the cold

tire inflation pressure matches the

recommended pressure on the tire

and loading information label, no

further adjustment is necessary.

If the pressure is low, add air until

you reach the recommended

amount.

If you overfill the tire, release air by

pushing on the metal stem in the

center of the tire valve. Recheck the

tire pressure with the tire gauge.

Be sure to put the valve caps back

on the valve stems. They help

prevent leaks by keeping out dirt

and moisture.

Tire Pressure Monitor

Operation

This vehicle may have a Tire

Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).

The TPMS is designed to warn the

driver when a low tire pressure

condition exists. TPMS sensors are

mounted onto each tire and wheel

assembly. The TPMS sensors

monitor the air pressure in the

vehicle's tires and transmit the tire

pressure readings to a receiver

located in the vehicle.

When a low tire pressure condition

is detected, the TPMS will illuminate

the low tire pressure warning

symbol located on the instrument

panel cluster. If the warning light

comes on, stop as soon as possible

and inflate the tires to the

recommended pressure shown on

the tire loading information label.

See “Vehicle Load Limits” in the

owner manual for more information.

At the same time a message to

check the pressure in a specific tire

appears on the Driver Information

Center (DIC) display. The low tire

pressure warning light and the DIC

warning message come on at each

ignition cycle until the tires are
