System Description
- During driving, the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) receives the signal transmitted from tire pressure sensor installed in each wheel. The BCM (Body Control Module) of this system has pressure judgment and trouble diagnosis functions. When the tire pressure monitoring system detects low inflation pressure or another unusual symptom, the low tire pressure warning lamps in the combination meter comes on.
- If the tire pressure is less than the specified value, the low tire pressure warning lamp illuminates that the tire pressure is less than the specified value.
- Activates the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) when the vehicle speed is 40 km/h (25 MPH) or more.
