CHANGING TIRES ON WHEELS EQUIPPED WITH TPMS WHEEL UNITS
1. Remove the wheel from the vehicle.
2. Remove the valve stem cap.
3. Remove schrader valve.
4. Un-bolt the TPMS wheel unit ( 11mm deep socket). Allow the sensor to fall into the wheel (This will prevent damage to the sensor while the tire is removed from the wheel with a tire removal machine).
5. Remove the tire from the wheel. Recover the TPMS wheel unit and store it in a safe place.
6. Place the TPMS wheel unit into the wheel, make sure the seal is fully seated.
7. Install the TPMS wheel unit nut by hand and turn at least 2- full revolutions by hand. Torque the wheel unit nut slowly (approximately 1-turn in 10-seconds) to 7 to 8 NM (62 to 70 in lb).
8. Install the tire to the wheel. CAUTION: Use care when installing the tire to the wheel with the bar, place the bar on the rim in a location that will not contact the sensor.
9. Seat the tire bead.
10. Install the schrader valve.
11. Inflate the tire to specifications (see label on driver door).
12. Install the valve stem cap.
13. Balance the wheel.
14. Install the wheel to the vehicle.
15. Torque all wheel nuts to 88 to 118 NM (65 to 87 ft lb) in a criss-cross pattern.
16. Verify that the TPMS system operates properly. Drive vehicle over 25 km/h (16 mph) to verify TPMS warning buzzer and light remain off.
