10-58 Vehicle Care Vehicles with 245/45ZR20 103Y, P245/50ZR19 104W, 275/ 40ZR20 106Y, 285/35ZR20 (100Y), and 305/35ZR20 (104Y) size tires, have tires capable of high speed use. Make sure vehicles with 245/ 45ZR20 103Y, P245/50ZR19 104W and 275/40ZR20 106Y size tires are inflated to the recommended cold inflation pressures before operating the vehicle at speeds over 160 km/h (100 mph). See Vehicle Load Limits on page 9‑12 and Tire Pressure on page 10‑56. Make sure vehicles with 285/ 35ZR20 (100Y), and 305/35ZR20 (104Y) size tires are inflated to 300 kPa (44 psi) before operating the vehicle at speeds of 160 km/h (100 mph) or higher. Return the tires to the recommended cold tire inflation pressure when high-speed driving has ended. See Vehicle Load Limits on page 9‑12 and Tire Pressure on page 10‑56. Tire Pressure Monitor System The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses radio and sensor technology to check tire pressure levels. The TPMS sensors monitor the air pressure in your tires and transmit tire pressure readings to a receiver located in the vehicle. Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly.
