Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with Tire Fill Assist

Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving. If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes significantly low, the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator () comes on and the Tire pressures low message () appears.

  1. Only use genuine wheels equipped with TPMS since your vehicle’s wheels are equipped with the low tire pressure/TPMS sensor.
    If you drive your vehicle without the genuine wheels equipped with TPMS, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator blinks for one minute and then stays on.

  4. Tires can become overinflated in warmer weather.
  5. The Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator will not come on as a result of overinflation.
  6. The TPMS can audibly and visually inform you of changes in tire pressure of the individual tire that you are adjusting.

    Tire Fill Assist 

Tire pressure monitor system problem. message may appear if you drive with a tire not equipped with a TPMS sensor (including the compact spare tire), or if there is a problem with the TPMS.

 

The pressure displayed on the driver information interface can be slightly different from the actual pressure as measured by a gauge. If there is a significant difference between the two values, or if the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator and the message on the driver information interface do not go off after you have inflated the tire to the specified pressure, have the system checked by a dealer.

Tire Pressure Monitor

To select the tire pressure monitor, set the power mode to ON, and roll the right selector wheel until you see the tire pressure screen.

Switching the Display

  1. The pressure for each tire is displayed in psi.
  1. The system checks each tire’s position on the vehicle each time the power mode is set to ON. “--” is displayed when the vehicle has not yet identified the location each sensor or when there is a problem. To allow the vehicle to identify the sensor locations, drive at a speed of more than 25 mph (40 km/h) until each tire pressure is displayed.
  2. If the pressure display does not update even after driving for one minute or if “--” is displayed for each wheel with an amber tire icon, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
