Tire Pressure Monitor Warning Light

NOTE: Tire pressure rises and falls depending on heat caused by vehicle's operation and the outside temperature. If outside temperature is low, the air inside the tire may cool, causing a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.

When the low tire pressure warning system detects low inflation pressure or another unusual symptom, the warning light in the instrument cluster comes on. If the system detects that air pressure is less than 27 psi (190 kPa), it will also sound a buzzer for 10 seconds and a "FLAT TIRE" or "CHECK TIRE PRESSURE" warning message will appear in instrument cluster display (if equipped).

The instrument cluster display unit displays the air pressure of each tire (except spare tire). After the ignition switch is turned on, the pressure values will not be displayed until the data of each wheel is received.

NOTE: Pressure indication in "** psi" on the screen indicates that the pressure is being measured. After a few driving trips, the pressure for all 4 tires will be displayed. Order of tire pressure figures displayed does not correspond with actual order of tire position.

When the tire pressure warning light comes on, immediately check the air pressure of all tires and adjust to the specified pressure. Make sure the warning light goes off. The warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire pressure is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the recommended pressure, the vehicle must be driven at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure warning light. If the warning light stays on or flashes, there is a malfunction in the TPM system. See appropriate manufacturer service information.
