  • If the transmitter is replaced, ID registration for the transmitter is required. TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR(DIAGNOSTICS)>Register Transmitter (ID)>OPERATION

  • When adjusting tire pressure indoors in winter, there is a big temperature difference between the indoor facilities and outside. Once the car is outside where the temperature is lower, the air pressure in the tires will drop, causing the tire pressure warning light to illuminate, even if the pressure in the tires was adjusted to standard values indoors. To avoid this, it is necessary to adjust the tire pressure to the high side in consideration of the difference in temperature between inside and outside according to the following table.

OPERATION

Perform the registration procedure of the transmitter in the following cases:

 
  • If registration of the transmitter ID is not possible after two attempts, replace the TPMS & keyless entry CM or TPMS CM. WHEEL AND TIRE SYSTEM>Tire Pressure Monitoring System

  • During the registration, turn the ignition switch to OFF and end the Subaru Select Monitor. Or if the registration is not performed for 5 minutes or more, the registration mode is cancelled.

  • When rotating tires, there is no affect on the performance or functions of the tire pressure monitoring control module even if the transmitter (ID) is not registered, however, the tire position displayed on the Subaru Select Monitor will be incorrect.

1.

Adjust all tire pressures to the specifications.

2.
