Understanding your Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System measures pressure in your four

road tires and sends the tire pressure readings to your vehicle. The Low

Tire Pressure Warning Lamp will turn ON if the tire pressure is

significantly low. Once the light is illuminated, your tires are under

inflated and need to be inflated to the manufacturer’s recommended tire

pressure. Even if the light turns ON and a short time later turns OFF,

your tire pressure still needs to be checked. The recommended tire size & pressure ratings are on the driver door edge.

I hope this is helpful to you!
