Chevrolet 05MONTECARLO Automobile User Manual


 
When the LOW TIRE PRESSURE message comes on,
you should stop as soon as you can and check all
your tires for damage. (If a tire is flat, see If a Tire Goes
Flat on page 5-75.) Also check the tire pressure in all
four tires as soon as you can. See Inflation - Tire
Pressure on page 5-65.
The LOW TIRE PRESSURE message will also be
displayed (while the ignition is on) until you reset
(calibrate) the system.
Don’t reset the tire pressure monitor system without first
correcting the cause of the problem and checking
and adjusting the pressure in all four tires. If you reset
the system when the tire pressures are incorrect,
the system will not work properly and may not alert you
when a tire is low.
Any time you adjust a tire’s pressure, rotate your tires,
or have one or more tires repaired or replaced, you’ll
need to reset (calibrate) the tire pressure monitor
system. You’ll also need to reset the system whenever
you buy new tires and whenever the vehicle’s battery
has been disconnected.
The tire pressure monitor system can be reset two ways.
To reset (calibrate) the system using the ignition, do
the following:
1. Turn the ignition position to ON.
2. Pull the exterior lamp control from the ON position
to the OFF position three times.
To reset (calibrate) the system through the radio, do
the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ACC or ON and turn the
radio off.
2. Press and hold the TUNE DISPL button on the
radio for at least five seconds until SETTINGS
is displayed.
3. Press the SEEK PSCAN up or down arrow to scroll
through the main menu.
4. Scroll until TIRE MON appears on the display.
5. Press the 1 PREV or 2 NEXT button to enter the
submenu. RESET will be displayed.
6. Press the TUNE DISPL button to reset. A chime will
be heard to verify the new setting and DONE will
be displayed for one second.
7. Once the monitor has been reset, scroll until EXIT
appears on the display.
8. Press the TUNE DISPL button to exit programming.
A chime will be heard to verify exit.
The system completes the calibration process
during driving.
