yellowblue When the TIRE PRESSURE LOW: CHECK TIRES message appears on the Driver Information Center, you should stop as soon as you can and check all your tires for damage. (If a tire is flat, see "If a Tire Goes Flat" in the Index.) Also check the tire pressure in all four tires as soon as you can. See "Inflation-Tire Pressure" in the Index. Any time you adjust a tire's pressure or have one or more tires repaired or replaced, you'll need to reset (calibrate) the check tire pressure system. You'll also need to reset the system whenever you rotate the tires, buy new tires, install or remove the compact spare, and whenever the vehicle's battery has been disconnected. Don't reset the check tire pressure system without first correcting the cause of the problem and checking and adjusting the pressure in all four tires. If you reset the system when the tire pressures are incorrect, the check tire pressure system will not work properly and may not alert you when a tire is low or high. To reset (calibrate) the system: 1. Turn the ignition switch to RUN. 2. Press the GAGE INFO button on the DIC until TIRE PRESSURE appears on the display. 3. Press and hold the DIC RESET button for about five seconds. After five seconds, the display will show TIRE PRESSURE RESET. If TIRE PRESSURE RESET does not appear on the display after about five seconds, see your dealer for service. After you release the DIC RESET button, TIRE PRESSURE NORMAL will appear on the display. The system completes the calibration process during driving. During the first 10 to 25 miles (15 to 40 km) of driving, the system will not alert you if a tire is high or low. After 25 to 100 miles (40 to 160 km), the system will only alert you about pressure differences of 12 psi (85 kPa) or more. After about 100 miles (160 km) of driving, the system will alert you if one tire is 10 psi (69 kPa) different from the other three tires. 6-49
