damage and a fast leak that causes the tire to lose air rapidly . If you have a flat tire , refer to “ Flat Tires ” FP488 .
When a replacement tire is mounted or a wheel rim is replaced without the original pressure sensor / transmitter being transferred , the Low tire pressure warning light will illuminate steadily after blinking for approximately one minute . This indicates the TPMS is unable to monitor all four road wheels . Contact your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible for tire and sensor replacement and / or system resetting . If the light illuminates steadily after blinking for approximately one minute , promptly contact a SUBARU dealer to have the system inspected .
CAUTION
The tire pressure monitoring system is NOT a substitute for manually checking tire pressure . The tire pressure should be checked periodically ( at least monthly ) using a tire gauge . After any change to tire pressure ( s ), the tire pressure monitoring system will not re-check tire inflation pressures until the vehicle is first driven more than 20 mph ( 32
km / h ). After adjusting the tire pressures , increase the vehicle speed to at least 20 mph ( 32 km / h ) to start the TPMS re-checking of the tire inflation pressures . If the tire pressures are now above the severe low pressure threshold , the low tire pressure warning light should turn off a few minutes later . Therefore , be sure to install the specified size for the front and rear tires .
