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.
Accordingly, when  the low  tire pres-
sure  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

Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not oper-
ating properly.The TPMS malfunction
indicator  is  provided by  a  separate
telltale,  which  displays   the  symbol
"TPMS" when illuminated.  When the
malfunction  indicator  is  illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect
or signal low  tire pressure as intend-
ed.TPMS malfunctions may occur for
a  variety  of  reasons,  including  the
installation  of  replacement  or  alter-
nate  tires or  wheels  on  the  vehicle
that prevent the TPMS from function-
ing properly.
