Low tire pressure warning light
The tire pressure monitoring system provides
the driver with a warning message
by sending a signal from a sensor that is
installed in each wheel when tire pressure
is severely low.
The tire pressure monitoring system will
activate only when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 20 mph (32 km/h). Also,
this system may not react immediately to a
sudden drop in tire pressure (for example,
a blow-out caused by running over a
sharp object).
WARNING
- If the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates while driving,
never brake suddenly. Instead,
perform the following procedure.
Otherwise an accident involving
serious vehicle damage and serious
personal injury could occur.
- Keep driving straight ahead
while gradually reducing
speed.
- Slowly pull off the road to a
safe place.
- Check the pressure for all four
tires and adjust the pressure
to the COLD tire pressure
shown on the vehicle placard
on the door pillar on the
driver's side.
Even when the vehicle is driven a
very short distance, the tires get
warm and their pressures increase
accordingly. Be sure to
let the tires cool thoroughly before
adjusting their pressures to
the standard values shown on
the tire placard. Refer to "Tires
and wheels" F11-25. The tire
pressure monitoring system
does not function when the vehicle
is stationary. After adjusting
the tire pressures, increase the
vehicle speed to at least 20 mph
(32 km/h) to start the TPMS
rechecking of the tire inflation
pressures. If the tire pressures
are now above the severe low
pressure threshold, the low tire
pressure warning light should
turn off a few minutes later.
If this light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may have significant
damage and a fast leak that
causes the tire to lose air rapidly.
If you have a flat tire, replace it
with a spare tire as soon as
possible.
- When a spare tire is mounted or a
wheel rim is replaced without the
original pressure sensor/transmitter
being transferred, the low
tire pressure warning light will
illuminate steadily after blinking
for approximately one minute.
This indicates the TPMS is unable
to monitor all four road
wheels. Contact your SUBARU
dealer as soon as possible for
tire and sensor replacement and/
or system resetting.
- When a tire is repaired with liquid sealant, the tire
pressure warning
valve and transmitter may not
operate properly. If a liquid sealant
is used, contact your nearest
SUBARU dealer or other qualified
service shop as soon as possible.
Make sure to replace the tire
pressure warning valve and
transmitter when replacing the
tire. You may reuse the wheel if
there is no damage to it and if the
sealant residue is properly
cleaned off. Do not inject any tire
liquid or aerosol tire sealant into
the tires, as this may cause a
malfunction of the tire pressure
sensors. If the light illuminates
steadily after blinking for approximately
one minut e ,
promptly contact a SUBARU
dealer to have the system inspected.

| CAUTION
Do not place metal film or any metal
parts under the driver's seat. This
may cause poor reception of the
signals from the tire pressure sensors,
and the tire pressure monitoring
system will not function properly. |
