Buick Verano Owner Manual - 2012 - CRC - 1/10/12

1-22

In Brief

During cooler conditions, the low tire
pressure warning light may appear
when the vehicle is first started and
then turn off. 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. It is the
driver

s responsibility to maintain

correct tire pressures.
