2010 Suzuki Kizashi Owner's Manual - Page 169

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE CAUTION • The tire pressure sensors can be damaged by the installation or removal of tires. When tires must be repaired or replaced, we highly recommend that you have them repaired or replaced by an authorized SUZUKI dealer. • Do not use liquid sealants for a flat tire as air pressure sensors can be damaged. • If the low tire pressure warning light comes on frequently, there may be something wrong with one of the tires or with the monitoring system. Have your vehicle inspected by an authorized SUZUKI dealer. NOTE: The information display shows the above warning and indicator message when this light comes on. Replacing Tires and/or Wheels If you get a flat tire, Suzuki recommends that you have an authorized SUZUKI dealer mount a new tire on the wheel that had the flat tire, and reinstall this tire on the vehicle in place of the spare. The TPMS is already set up to recognize the ID code of the original wheel, and normal TPMS operation will be restored. TPMS Limitations The tire pressure monitoring system may not function properly under certain circumstances. In the following situations, the low tire pressure warning light may come on and remain on or may blink. • When you replace a flat tire with the spare tire. • When you include the spare tire during a tire rotation. • When the TPMS sensor is damaged during a tire replacement or liquid sealants are used to repair a flat tire. • When the TPMS sensor's electronic signal is disturbed in one of the following ways: - Electric devices or facilities using similar radio wave frequencies are nearby. - A lot of snow or ice covers the vehicle, in particular, around the wheels or wheel housings. - Snow tires or tire chains are used. • When you use non-genuine SUZUKI wheels or tires. • When the pressure of any tire is too high. • When there is a problem with the receiver of the keyless entry/start remote controller. 57L31027 NOTE: The above message will be indicated on the information display if the ID code is not registered. If you need to replace original wheels on your vehicle, your dealer must make sure that TPMS sensors are installed in the new wheels and must set up the TPMS to recognize the new sensors. 57L31026 3-38
