Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly. A Tire and Loading Information label, attached to your vehicle, shows the size of your vehicle's original equipment tires and the correct inflation pressure for your vehicle's tires when they are cold. See Loading Your Vehicle on page 307, for an example of the tire information label and its location on your vehicle. Also see Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 386. Your vehicle's TPMS can alert you about a low or high tire pressure condition but it does not replace normal tire maintenance. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 386 and When It Is Time for New Tires on page 393. The SERVICE TIRE MONITOR message, in the DIC, is displayed when the TPMS is malfunctioning. For example, one or more TPMS sensors may be inoperable or missing. Also, the active handling system will be affected, see Active Handling System on page 281. See your dealer for service. 391
