The system can alert you about a low tire — but it does
not replace normal tire maintenance. See Tires on
page 5-56.
When the tire pressure warning light and the CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE message comes on, you should stop
as soon as you can and check all your tires for
damage. If a tire is flat, see If a Tire Goes Flat on
page 5-72. Also check the tire pressure in all four tires
as soon as you can. See Inflation - Tire Pressure
on page 5-62.
Any time you adjust a tire’s pressure or have one or
more tires repaired or replaced, you will need to reset
(calibrate) the check tire pressure system. You will
also need to reset the system whenever you rotate the
tires, buy new tires, and install or remove the compact
spare tire.
Do not reset the check tire pressure system without first
correcting the cause of the problem and checking
and adjusting the pressure in all four tires to the
recommended amount. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on
page 5-62. If you reset the system when the tire
pressures are incorrect, the check tire pressure system
will not work properly and may not alert you when a
tire is low or high.
To reset (calibrate) the system:
1. Turn the ignition switch to RUN, with the engine off.
2. Press the vehicle information button on the DIC
until the PRESS
V TO RESET TIRE SYSTEM
message appears on the display.
3. Press and hold the DIC Set/Reset button for about
five seconds. After five seconds, the display will
show TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM RESET. If the
TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM RESET message does
not appear in the display after about five seconds,
repeat the procedure starting with Step 2. If it does
not work after two tries, see your dealer for service.
The system completes the calibration process during
driving. The system learns the pressure at each tire
throughout the operating speed range of your vehicle.
The system normally takes between 20 and 45 minutes of
driving in each of the following speed ranges to learn tire
pressures: 25 to 40 mph (40 to 64 km/h), 40 to 60 mph
(64 to 96 km/h), and 60 to 85 mph (96 to 136 km/h). This
time may be longer depending on your individual driving
habits. Learning need not be accumulated during a single
trip. Once learned, the system will remember the tire
pressures until the system is reset.
