Make sure that the power switch is OFF . If the tires are rotated while the power switch is in ON , the tire position information will not be updated . If this accidentally occurs , either turn the power switch to OFF and then to ON , or initialize the system after checking that the tire pressure is properly adjusted .
Tire pressure warning system ( if equipped )
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure warning system that uses tire pressure warning valves and transmitters to detect low tire inflation pressure before serious problems arise .
The tire pressure warning system of this vehicle adopts a 2- type warning system .
• When “ Adjust Pressure ” is displayed ( Normal Warning )
A warning with the tire pressure warning light and warning buzzer when there is an unknown level of low tire pressure with the appearance of the tire due to natural air leakage as well as the pressure lowering due to changes in the pressure according to the outside temperature .
• When “ Immediately Check Tire when Safe ” is displayed ( Emergency Warning )
A warning with the tire pressure warning light and warning buzzer when there is a known level of low tire pressure with the appearance of the tire due to pressure suddenly lowering .
However , the system may not be able to detect sudden tire ruptures ( bursting , etc .).
• The tire pressure detected by the tire pressure warning system can be displayed on the multi-information display .
