• Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes

the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.

Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire

tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and

stopping ability.

• The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance,

and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire

pressure using an accurate tire gauge, even if under-

inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination

of the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light.

• Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressure,

and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressure in

the tire.

Premium System

The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses wireless

technology with wheel rim-mounted electronic sensors to

monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each

wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure

readings to the Receiver Module.

NOTE:

It is particularly important, for you to regularly

check the tire pressure in all of your tires and to maintain

the proper pressure.
