UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 105 • If the light turns on steady while the engine is running, safely bring the vehicle to a complete stop as soon as possible, cycle the ignition key, and then restart the engine. The light should turn off. However, if the light remains on steady, see your authorized dealer for service as soon as possible. • If the light is flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is required. If this occurs, you may experience reduced vehicle performance, an elevated/ rough idle or engine stall, and your vehicle may require towing. Low Tire Pressure Telltale / TPMS Malfunction Indicator 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. 4
