Tires, Wheels and Loading replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly. The tire pressure monitoring system complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. 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. Changing Tires with a TPMS Note: Each road tire is equipped with a tire pressure sensor located inside the tire and wheel assembly cavity. The pressure sensor is attached to the valve stem. The pressure sensor is covered by the tire and is not visible unless the tire is removed. Care must be taken when changing the tire to avoid damaging the sensor. It is recommended that you always have your tires serviced by an authorized dealer. The tire pressure should be checked periodically (at least monthly) using an accurate tire gauge, refer to Inflating your tires in this chapter. Understanding your tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) The tire pressure monitoring system measures pressure in your four road tires and sends the tire pressure readings to your vehicle. The low tire pressure warning light will turn on if the tire pressure is significantly low. Once the light is illuminated, your tires are under-inflated and need to be inflated to the manufacturer's recommended tire pressure. Even if the light turns on and a short time later turns off, your tire pressure still needs to be checked. Visit www.checkmytires.org for additional information. When Your Temporary Spare Tire Is Installed When one of your road tires needs to be replaced with the temporary spare, the TPMS will continue to identify an issue to remind you that the damaged road wheel/tire needs to be repaired and put back on your vehicle. 246 2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 5th Printing USA (fus)

Each road tire is equipped

with a tire pressure sensor located

inside the tire and wheel assembly

cavity. The pressure sensor is

attached to the valve stem. The

damaging the sensor.

It is recommended that you always

have your tires serviced by an authorized dealer.

The tire pressure should be checked periodically (at least monthly) using

an accurate tire gauge, refer to

Understanding your tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS)

The tire pressure monitoring system measures pressure in your four road

tires and sends the tire pressure readings to your vehicle. The low tire

pressure warning light will turn on if the tire pressure is significantly low.

Once the light is illuminated, your tires are under-inflated and need to be

inflated to the manufacturer’s recommended tire pressure. Even if the light

turns on and a short time later turns off, your tire pressure still needs to

be checked. Visit www.checkmytires.org for additional information.

When Your Temporary Spare Tire Is Installed

When one of your road tires needs to be replaced with the temporary spare,

the TPMS will continue to identify an issue to remind you that the damaged

road wheel/tire needs to be repaired and put back on your vehicle.
