Chevrolet Equinox Service Manual: Tire Pressure Monitor Tires
This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS).
The low tire pressure warning light alerts to a significant loss in pressure of oneof the vehicle's tires. If the warning light comes on, stop as soon as possible andinflate the tires to the recommended pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Informationlabel. SeeVehicle Load Limits. The warning light will remain on until the tire pressure is corrected.
The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool weather when the vehicle isfirst started, and then turn off as the vehicle is driven. This may be an early indicatorthat the tire pressures are getting low and the tires need to be inflated to the properpressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal monthly tire maintenance. Maintain the correct tirepressures.
