TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)

DRIVING POSITION MEMORY SYSTEM (DPMS)

Monitors the vehicle’s tire pressures.

How It Works

What to Do

Each tire valve stem contains a TPMS sensor.

When the tire pressure drops significantly below recommended levels, the low tire pressure indicator comes on and a message appears on the MID.

Store a driver’s seat and mirror position into memory for each keyless remote.

Programming DPMS

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II). Shift into Park (P).

2. Adjust the seat and outside mirrors to your preferred settings.

3. Press SET. You will hear a beep.

4. Press the memory button corresponding to the remote (1 or 2) you are using. You will hear two beeps.

1. Visually inspect the tires for damage.

2. Use a tire air pressure gauge to check which tire(s) have low pressure.

3. Inflate the tire(s), if necessary, to the recommended pressures listed on the label on the driver’s doorjamb.

Note: A stored memory position is linked to the corresponding keyless remote (1 or 2). Each item begins to adjust when you unlock the driver’s door with the remote and enter the vehicle.
