For LTPWS to work properly, you must drive your
Corvette faster than
25
mph
(40
km/h) and for more
than
2
miles
(4
km). The system will not warn you
before
you
begin to drive that a tire is flat.
When the LOWLFLAT TIRE light comes
on,
check the
tire pressure in all four road tires as soon as you can.
Adjust the tire pressure as needed to those shown
on
the
Tire-Loading Information label on the driver’s door.
If
the light stays on after the tire pressure is adjusted, see
your dealer.
The LTPWS sensor is directly opposite the valve stem
on the tire. Take care when servicing or having your
tires serviced. The sensors may not work properly
if
damaged. To prevent damage to the sensors, see the
1995
Corvette Service Manual for correct tire mounting
and dismounting procedures.
The LOWELAT TIRE light may come on if your
vehicle is close to another vehicle that has
LTPWS
and
has a tire with low pressure.
LTPWS can warn you about a low tire, but
it
does not
replace normal tire maintenance. See “Tires” in the
Index.
NOTICE:
Driving with a flat tire may damage the tire, the
wheel or the tire pressure sensor installed inside
the tire
on
the wheel rim. Using tire sealants may
also damage the sensor.
If
you have EMTs, see “Extended Mobility Tires”
in the Index.
