At the same time a message to check the pressure in a
specific tire appears on the Driver Information center
(DIC) display. The low tire pressure warning light and
the DIC warning message come on at each ignition cycle
until the tires are inflated to the correct inflation pressure.
Using the DIC buttons, tire pressure readings can be
viewed by the driver. For additional information and
details about the DIC operation and displays see DIC
Operation and Displays (Uplevel DIC with Trip Computer)
on page 3-55 or DIC Operation and Displays (Base Level
DIC) on page 3-62 and DIC Warnings and Messages on
page 3-67.
The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool
weather when the vehicle is first started, and then turn
off as you start to drive. This could be an early indicator
that the air pressure in the tire(s) are getting low and
need to be inflated to the proper pressure.
A tire and Loading Information label, attached to your
vehicle, shows the size of your vehicle’s original
equipment tires and the correct inflation pressure for your
vehicle’s tires when they are cold. See Loading Your
Vehicle on page 4-22, for an example of the Tire and
Loading Information label and its location on your vehicle.
Also see Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-69.
Your vehicle’s TPMS system can warn you about a low
tire pressure condition but it does not replace normal
tire maintenance. See Tire Inspection and Rotation on
page 5-75 and Tires on page 5-62.
Your vehicle, when new, may have included a
factory-installed Tire Inflator Kit. This kit uses a GM
approved liquid tire sealant. See Tire Sealant and
Compressor Kit (GXP) on page 5-86.
Notice: Using non-approved tire sealants could
damage the Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
sensors. TPMS sensor damage caused by using
an incorrect tire sealant is not covered by the
vehicle warranty. Always use the GM approved tire
sealant available through your dealer/retailer.
