Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Detects loss of tire pressure beyond specic limits. A warning
indicator will alert the driver of tire(s) with a low pressure condition, check/correct to extinguish warning
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 ination pressures and stay within the load limits and
weight distribution recommended for your vehicle.
