CAUTION – General Safety Precautions
1. Do not attempt to use the Tire Pressure Monitor System while
adjusting tire pressures, since they do not function as a real-
time tire pressure gauge.
2. Tire pressure monitor equipment was calibrated for the original
vehicle tire size. Use only original tire sizes to maintain system
accuracy.
3. Tire sealants should not be used on vehicles equipped with a
Tire Pressure Monitor System. Those sealants can clog the
sensors, rendering them ineffective.
4. Do not attempt to install a tire pressure sensor in a steel or
aftermarket wheel. Tire pressure monitor equipment is only to
be used on original style factory wheels.
5. Always replace a damaged or inoperative TPM
sensor/transmitter.
