Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)*
TPMS detects loss of tire pressure beyond specic limits. The system will turn on a warning light to
alert the driver of tire(s) with a low pressure condition. Check and correct this condition to extinguish
the zwarning light. If the letters TPMS appear and remain illuminated, this indicates the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System is not functioning properly. Consult your dealer for service. For proper maintenance,
safety, and maximum fuel economy, you must always maintain recommended tire ination pressures and
stay within the load limits
