Extended Mobility Tires Your vehicle, whennew, had Goodyear Extended Mobility Tires (EMT). There's spare tire, no tire no changing equipment andno place to store a tire in the vehicle. Extended MobilityTires perform so well without any air that a Pressure Monitor (TPM) is Tire used to alert you if a tire lost pressure. has The TirePressure Monitor (TPM) has a sensor on each road wheel thattransmits to a receiver on the instrument panel. The system operates on a radio frequency subject to Federal CommunicationsCommission (FCC) Rules and with Industry and Science Canada. Changes or modifications to this system by other than an authorized service facility could void authorization to use this equipment. If a tire'sinflation pressure is between 5 psi (35 kPa) and 25 psi (170 kPa), you will see a message on the Driver Information Center. This message will show which tire is underinflated and two chimes will sound. An example would be LOW TIRE PRESSURE-LR. This would mean that the inflation pressure in your left rear tire is between 5 psi (35 P a ) and 25 psi (170 P a ) . If the inflation pressure in the tire drops below 5 psi (35 E a ) , the message would read FLAT TIRE-LR and four chimes will sound. See "Driver Information Center" in the Index. The TPM will also alert you if a tire'spressure is higher than 42 psi (290 Wa). Themessage will show which tire is overinflated and two chimes will sound. An example would be HIGH PRESSURE-LR. This would mean that the inflation pressure in your left rear tire is higher than 42 psi (290 kPa). See "Driver Information Center" in the Index. If a tire pressure message appears on the Driver Information Center, stop as soon as you can. Have the tire pressures checked and set to those shown on your Tire Loading Information label. See "Inflation -- Tire Pressure" in the Index. This device complies withPart 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Extended
Mobility
Tires
Your vehicle,
when new, had Goodyear Extended
Mobility
Tires
(EMT).
There’s
no spare tire, no tire
changing
equipment
and no place to store a tire in the
vehicle.
Extended
Mobility Tires perform
so
well
without
any
air
that
a Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) is
used to alert you
if
a
tire has lost pressure.
The
TirePressure Monitor (TPM) has a sensor on
each
road
wheel
that
transmits to a receiver on the
instrument
panel.
The system operates on a radio frequency subject to
Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and
with Industry
and Science Canada.
This
device
complies
with
Part
15 of
the
FCC
Rules.
Operation
is
subject
to
the
following
two
conditions:
(1)
this
device
may
not
cause
harmful
interference,
and
(2)
this
device
must
accept
any
interference
received,
including
interference
that
may
cause
undesired
operation.
This device complies
with RSS-210 of Industry and
Science
Canada.
Operation
is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference,
and (2) this device must accept any
interference
received,including interference that may
cause
undesired
operation
of
the
device.
Changes or modifications to this system
by
other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
If
a
tire’s
inflation pressure is between
5
psi (35
kPa)
and 25 psi (170 kPa), you will see a message on
the
Driver Information Center. This message will show
which tire is underinflated and two chimes will sound.
An example would
be
LOW
TIRE
PRESSURE-LR.
This would mean that the inflation pressure in your left
rear tire is between 5 psi (35 P a ) and 25 psi (170 P a ) .
If the inflation pressure in the tire drops below
5
psi
(35 Ea), the message would read
FLAT TIRE-LR and
four chimes will sound.
See
“Driver Information
Center” in the Index.
The TPM will also alert you
if
a
tire’s pressure is
higher
than
42
psi (290 Wa).
The message will show which tire
is overinflated and two chimes will sound. An example
would be HIGH PRESSURE-LR. This would mean that
the inflation pressure in your left rear tire is higher than
42 psi (290 kPa). See “Driver Information Center” in
the Index.
If a tire pressure message appears on the Driver
Information Center, stop as soon as you can. Have
the
tire pressures checked and set to those shown
on
your
Tire Loading Information label. See “Inflation
--
Tire
Pressure” in the Index.
