SAFETY

243

To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel and 

tire assemblies (road tires) with tires equipped with 

TPMS sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for up to 

20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS 

will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on 

and off for 75 seconds and then turn off. The 

instrument cluster will display the “SERVICE TPM 

SYSTEM” message and then display pressure 

values in place of the dashes. On the next ignition 

cycle the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message will no 

longer be displayed as long as no system fault 

exists.

RECAUTIONS

Please pay close attention to the information in 

this section. It tells you how to use your restraint 

system properly, to keep you and your passengers 

as safe as possible.
Here are some simple steps you can take to 

minimize the risk of harm from a deploying air bag:
1. Children 12 years old and under should 

always ride buckled up in the rear seat of a 

vehicle with a rear seat.

2. A child who is not big enough to wear the 

vehicle seat belt properly must be secured in 

the appropriate child restraint or 

belt-positioning booster seat in a rear seating 

position  

Ú

page 266.

3. If a child from 2 to 12 years old (not in a 

rear-facing child restraint) must ride in the 

front passenger seat, move the seat as far 

back as possible and use the proper child 

restraint  

Ú

page 266.

4. Never allow children to slide the shoulder belt 

behind them or under their arm.

5. You should read the instructions provided with 

your child restraint to make sure that you are 

using it properly.

6. All occupants should always wear their lap and 

shoulder belts properly.

7. The driver and front passenger seats should 

be moved back as far as practical to allow the 

front air bags room to inflate.

8. Do not lean against the door or window. If your 

vehicle has side air bags, and deployment 

occurs, the side air bags will inflate forcefully 

into the space between occupants and the 

door and occupants could be injured.

9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to be 

modified to accommodate a disabled person, 

see  

Ú

page 368 for customer service contact 

information.

WARNING!

Never place a rear-facing child restraint in 

front of an air bag. A deploying passenger 

front air bag can cause death or serious injury 

to a child 12 years or younger, including a 

child in a rear-facing child restraint.

Never install a rear-facing child restraint in the 

front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing 

child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle 

does not have a rear seat, do not transport a 

rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle.
