Tire Pressure Monitor This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).


The low tire pressure warning light alerts to a significant loss in pressure of one of the vehicle's tires. If the warning light comes on, stop as soon as possible and inflate the tires to the recommended

warning light will remain on until the tire pressure is corrected. The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool weather when the vehicle is first started, and then turn off as the vehicle is driven. This may be an early indicator that the tire pressures are getting low and the tires need to be inflated to the proper pressure. The TPMS does not replace normal monthly tire maintenance. Maintain the correct tire pressures. See Tire Pressure Monitor System 0 300

remove the key. Insert the new key to be programmed and turn it to the ON/RUN position within five seconds. The security light will turn off once the key has been programmed.


4. Repeat Steps 1–3 if additional


keys are to be programmed.


If a key is lost or damaged, see your dealer to have a new key made.


Programming without a Recognized Key Program a new key to the vehicle when a recognized key is not available. Canadian regulations require that owners see their dealer. If there are no currently recognized keys available, follow this procedure to program the first key.


This procedure will take approximately 30 minutes to complete for the first key. The vehicle must be off and all of the keys you wish to program must be with you. 1.


Insert the new vehicle key into the ignition.


2. Turn to ON/RUN. The security


light will come on.


3. Wait 10 minutes until the


security light turns off.


4. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF. 5. Repeat Steps 2–4 two more


times. After the third time, turn to ON/RUN; the key is learned and all previously known keys will no longer work with the vehicle.


Remaining keys can be learned by following the procedure in “Programming with a Recognized Key.” The key has a bar-coded key tag that the dealer or qualified locksmith can use to make new keys. Store this information in a safe place, not in the vehicle.


Interference from radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags may prevent the key from starting the vehicle. Keep RFID tags away from the key when starting the vehicle. The key is used for the ignition and all door locks. Programming Keys Follow these procedures to program up to eight keys to the vehicle.
