up, allowing tire air pressure to increase above the threshold causing the light to go off. Properly adjusting all tire air pressures to the
recommended levels will correct this (Refer to the Tire and Loading Information Label on the driver side door).

Tire Pressure Light
At key on, without starting the vehicle:
Steady Solid Glowing TPM Indicator
If the TPM indicator appears as a steady glowing yellow lamp (as above), the system is functioning properly and you should add air to the tires to correct
this condition.
Blinking TPM Indicator
If the TPM indicator appears as a BLINKING yellow lamp for one minute and then stays on solid, diagnostic service is needed.
The Effect of Outside Temperature on Tire Pressures
Important:
As a rule of thumb, tire pressure will change about 7kPa (1 psi) for every 6°C (10°F) decrease in temperature - Tire pressure will drop when it gets
colder outside, and rise when it gets warmer.
Under certain situations such as extreme outside temperature changes, the system may bring on a solid light with a check tire pressure message. This
should be considered normal and the system is working properly. The light will turn off upon adding the proper amount of air to the tires (refer to the
Tire & Loading Information label in the driver's door opening). When properly adjusting tire air pressure, the following steps are important to help
optimize the system and prolong bringing a tire pressure light on:
^ Use an accurate, high quality tire pressure gauge.
^ Never set the tire pressure below the specified placard value regardless of tire temperature or ambient temperature.
^ Tire pressure should be set to the specified placard pressure at the lowest seasonal temperature the vehicle will encounter during operation.
