when your tires need air. It can also warn you in the event the system is
no longer capable of functioning as intended. Please refer to the

manufacturer’s recommended
inflation pressure as shown on the
Tire Label (located on the edge of

vehicle must be driven for at least
two minutes over 20 mph (32 km/h)
before the light will turn off.
