Chevrolet 2010 Colorado Automobile User Manual


 
Tire Pressure Monitor
This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS).
The Tire Pressure Monitor
alerts you when a
significant reduction in
pressure occurs in one or
more of the vehicles tires
by illuminating the low tire
pressure warning light on
the instrument cluster.
If the warning light comes on, stop as soon as possible
and inflate the tires to the recommended pressure
shown on the tire loading information label located on
the driver side center pillar (B pillar). Vehicles without a
center pillar, like extended cab models, will have the
Tire and Loading Information label attached to the driver
side extended cab door, above the door latch post. See
Loading the Vehicle
on page 531
. The warning light
will remain on until the tire pressure is corrected.
You may notice during cooler conditions that the low tire
pressure warning light will appear when the vehicle is
first started and then turn off as you drive. This may be
an early indicator that your tire pressures are getting
low and the tires need to be inflated to the proper
pressure.
The Tire Pressure Monitor can alert you about low tire
pressure, but it does not replace normal monthly tire
maintenance. It is the drivers responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressures.
See Tire Pressure Monitor System
on page 665
and
