Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (Tpms) (If Equipped) - Suzuki Jimny 2022 Manual

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) (if equipped)
The tyre pressure monitoring system is
designed to alert you when one or more of
the tyres on your vehicle is significantly
under-inflated. The tyre pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS) sensor containing a
unique identification code is mounted on
each wheel. The TPMS sensors transmit
tyre pressure signals to the receiver of the
tyre pressure monitoring system controller.
When the inflation pressure of one or more
tyres indicates significant under-inflation,
the low tyre pressure warning light shown
below comes on.
5-105
Low Tyre Pressure Warning Light
Each tyre should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pres-
sure recommended by the vehicle manu-
facturer on the vehicle placard or tyre
pressure label. (If your vehicle has tyres of
a different size than the size indicated on
the vehicle placard or tyre pressure label,
you should determine the proper tyre pres-
sure for those tyres.)
As an added fuel efficiency feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a tyre
pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that
illuminates a low tyre pressure warning
light when one or more of your tyres is sig-
nificantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tyre pressure
warning light illuminates, you should stop
and check your tyres as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated
tyre causes the tyre to overheat and can
lead to tyre failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tyre tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substi-
tute for proper tyre maintenance, and it is
the driver's responsibility to maintain cor-
rect tyre pressure, even if under-inflation
has not reached the level to trigger illumi-
nation of the TPMS low tyre pressure
warning light.
WARNING
52D305 Relying only on the tyre pressure
monitoring system to
when it is necessary to add air to the
tyres can result in loss of control or
an accident.
Check tyre pressures monthly when
the tyres are cold. If necessary,
adjust them to the recommended
inflation pressure as specified on the
vehicle's tyre information placard
and in this owner's manual. Refer to
"Tyres" in "INSPECTION AND MAIN-
TENANCE" section.
