STARTING AND OPERATING 513 • Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressure, Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Tire Pressure and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressure in Warnings the tire. Base System The TPMS uses wireless technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings to the Receiver Module. NOTE: It is particularly important for you to check the tire pressure in all of your tires regularly and to maintain the proper pressure. The Basic TPMS consists of the following components: • Receiver Module • Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors • TPMS Telltale Warning Light The "Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light" will illuminate in the instrument cluster, a "LOW TIRE PRESSURE" message will display in the instrument cluster, and an audible chime will be activated when one or more of the four active road tire pressures are low. Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible, check the inflation pressure of each tire on your vehicle, and inflate each tire to the vehicle's recommended cold tire placard pressure value (located on the placard label on the driver's-side B-Pillar). The system will automatically update and the "Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light" will extinguish once the updated tire pressures have been received. 5
