TIRE LOW ADD AIR TO TIRE
On vehicles with the Tire Pressure
Monitor System (TPMS), this
message displays when the
pressure in one or more of the
vehicle’s tires is low. This message
also displays LEFT FRONT, RIGHT
FRONT, LEFT REAR, or RIGHT
REAR to indicate the location of the
low tire.
The low tire pressure warning light
will also come on. See Tire
Pressure Light on page 5‑26.
If a tire pressure message appears
on the DIC, stop as soon as you
can. Inflate the tires by adding air
until the tire pressure is equal to
the values shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
See Tires on page 10‑66, Vehicle
Load Limits on page 9‑12, and
Tire Pressure on page 10‑74.
If the vehicle does not have a spare
tire, the message will display USE
INFLATOR KIT IN TRUNK. Use the
inflator kit to inflate the tires to the
correct pressure. See Tire Sealant
and Compressor Kit on page 10‑91
for more information.
More than one tire pressure
message can be received at a time.
To read the other messages, press
the set/reset button.
The DIC display also shows the
tire pressure values. See Driver
Information Center (DIC) on
page 5‑28.
Transmission Messages
DIFFERENTIAL HOT, REDUCE
SPEED (CTS-V ONLY)
This message displays and a
chime sounds if the differential
fluid temperature exceeds 150°C
(300°F). Driving aggressively or
at high speeds can cause the
differential fluid temperature to be
higher than normal. If this message
appears, you may continue to drive
at a slower speed. If you have been
operating the vehicle under normal
driving conditions, the vehicle may
need service. See your dealer for an
inspection.
To acknowledge the message,
press
V. The message reappears
and a chime sounds every
two minutes until this condition
changes. If you do not clear the
message, it will remain on until the
condition changes.
