.
Tire Pressure
On vehicles with the Tire Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS), the pressure for each tire can be viewed
in the DIC. The tire pressure is shown in either
kilopascals (kPa) or pounds per square inch (psi).
Press the information button until LF ## PSI (kPa) ## RF
displays for the front tires. Press the information button
again until LR ## PSI (kPa) ## RR displays for the
rear tires.
If a low tire pressure condition is detected by the
system while driving, a message advising you to add air
will appear in the display. See
Inflation - Tire Pressure
on page 6-56
and
DIC Warnings and Messages on
page 4-43
for more information.
