If you will be driving at high speeds, speeds of100 mph (160 km/h) or higher, where it is legal, setthe cold inflation pressure to the maximum inflationpressure shown on the tire sidewall, or 38 psi(265 kPa), whichever is lower. See the examplefollowing. When you end this high-speed driving,return the tires to the cold inflation pressure shownon the Tire and Loading Information label. SeeLoading Your Vehicle on page 349.Example:You will find the maximum load and inflationpressure molded on the tire’s sidewall, in smallletters, near the rim flange. It will read somethinglike this: Maximum load 690 kg (1521 lbs)300 kPa (44 psi) Max. Press.For this example, you would set the inflationpressure for high-speed driving at38 psi (265 kPa).Tire Pressure Monitor SystemYour vehicle has a Tire Pressure MonitorSystem (TPMS). This system uses radio andsensor technology to check tire pressure levels.Sensors are mounted onto each tire andwheel assembly, except the compact spare tireand wheel. The TPMS sensors monitor theair pressure in your vehicle’s tires and transmitsthe tire pressure readings to a receiver located inthe vehicle.Using the Driver Information Center (DIC), tirepressure levels may be viewed by the driver. Foradditional information and details about theDIC operation and displays see DIC Controls andDisplays on page 258 and DIC Warnings andMessages on page 264.If a low tire pressure condition is detected, theTPMS will display the CHECK TIRE PRESSUREwarning message on the DIC display and, atthe same time, illuminate the low tire pressurewarning symbol, on the instrument panel cluster.433
