Wheels and Tires 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. Understanding the Tire Pressure Monitoring System The system measures the pressure in the four road tires and sends the tire pressure readings to your vehicle. The low tire pressure warning light will illuminate if any of the tire pressures are significantly low. If the warning light is illuminated, one or more of the tires are under-inflated and need to be inflated to the correct pressure. When the Temporary Spare Tire is Installed If one of the road wheels and tire needs to be replaced with the temporary spare wheel and tire, the system will continue to identify a defect. This is to remind you that the damaged road wheel and tire must be repaired and refitted to your vehicle. To restore the correct operation of the system, you must have the repaired road wheel and tire assembly refitted to your vehicle. For additional information, see Changing Tires with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System in this section. When You Believe the System is Not Operating Correctly The main function of the system is to warn you when the tire pressures are low. It can also warn you in the event the system is no longer capable of operating correctly. See the following chart for information concerning the system: Changing Tires With a Tire Pressure Monitoring System E142549 Note: Each road tire is equipped with a tire pressure sensor located inside the wheel and tire 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. Take care when changing the tire to avoid damaging the sensor You should always have your tires serviced by an authorized dealer. Check the tire pressure periodically (at least monthly) using an accurate tire gauge.

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 Tire

Pressure Monitoring System

E142549

Note:

Each road tire is equipped with a tire

pressure sensor located inside the wheel

and tire 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. Take

care when changing the tire to avoid

damaging the sensor

You should always have your tires serviced

by an authorized dealer.

Check the tire pressure periodically (at

least monthly) using an accurate tire

gauge. See Inflating Your Tires in this

chapter.

Understanding the Tire Pressure

Monitoring System

The system measures the pressure in the

four road tires and sends the tire pressure

readings to your vehicle. The low tire

pressure warning light will illuminate if any

of the tire pressures are significantly low.

If the warning light is illuminated, one or

more of the tires are under-inflated and

need to be inflated to the correct pressure.

When the Temporary Spare Tire is

Installed

If one of the road wheels and tire needs to

be replaced with the temporary spare

wheel and tire, the system will continue to

identify a defect. This is to remind you that

the damaged road wheel and tire must be

repaired and refitted to your vehicle.

To restore the correct operation of the

system, you must have the repaired road

wheel and tire assembly refitted to your

vehicle. For additional information, see

Changing Tires with a Tire Pressure

Monitoring System

in this section.

When You Believe the System is Not

Operating Correctly

The main function of the system is to warn

you when the tire pressures are low. It can

also warn you in the event the system is

no longer capable of operating correctly.

See the following chart for information

concerning the system:
