For example, your vehicle may have a recom-
mended cold (parked for more than three hours)
placard pressure of 30 psi (207 kPa). If the ambient
temperature is 68 F (20 C) and the measured tire
pressureis27psi(186kPa),atemperaturedropto20
F (-7 C) will decrease the tire pressure to approxi-
mately 23 psi (157 kPa). This tire pressure is suffi-
ciently low enough to turn ON the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light. Driving the vehicle may
