Vehicle Care

There are two minutes to match
the first tire/wheel position, and
five minutes overall to match all
four tire/wheel positions. If it takes
longer, the matching process stops
and must be restarted.

The TPMS matching process is:

1. Set the parking brake.

2. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with

the engine off.

3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry

(RKE) transmitter's lock and
unlock buttons at the same time
for approximately five seconds.
The horn sounds twice to signal
the receiver is in relearn mode
and Tire Learning Active
message displays on the DIC
screen.

4. Start with the driver side

front tire.

5. Place the relearn tool against

the tire sidewall, near the valve
stem. Then press the button to
activate the TPMS sensor.

A horn chirp confirms that the
sensor identification code has
been matched to this tire and
wheel position.

6. Proceed to the passenger side

front tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 5.

7. Proceed to the passenger side

rear tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 5.

8. Proceed to the driver side rear

tire, and repeat the procedure
in Step 5. After hearing the
confirming horn chirp, for the
driver side rear tire, the horn
sounds two more times to signal
the tire learning mode is no
longer active.

9. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.

10. Set all four tires to the

recommended air pressure
level as indicated on the tire
and loading information label.

Tire Inspection

We recommend that the tires,
including the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.
Replace the tire if:

.

The indicators at three or
more places around the tire
can be seen.

.

There is cord or fabric
showing through the tire's
rubber.

.

The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show cord
or fabric.

.

The tire has a bump, bulge,
or split.

.

The tire has a puncture, cut,
or other damage that cannot
be repaired well because of
the size or location of the
damage.
