prevailing road conditions. The “ESP/TCS Indicator

Light” will flash any time the ESP or TCS is active and

helping to improve vehicle stability. If the “ESP/TCS

Indicator Light” is on solid, the ESP system has been

turned off by the driver or a temporary condition exists

that will not allow full ESP function. (See page 131 for

more information.)

12. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light

Each tire, including the spare (if provided),

should be checked monthly when cold and

inflated to the inflation pressure recommended

by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle

placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle

has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the

vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should

determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those

tires.)

As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been

equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS)

that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or

more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accord-

ingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you

should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and

inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a signifi-

cantly 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.

Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper

tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to

maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has

not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS

low tire pressure telltale. (See page 297 for more infor-

mation.)
