My 2013 ICON has TPMS but does not show anything on the screen.
Is this normal for this model? Is it only the Invicible that has the full functionality. It’s unclear in the handbook.

What does one mean 'full functionality...?'
I have the Invincible, and what you get is a light that comes on within the dials when switching on (testing all the warnings etc.) And you get this light on if the pressure is too high or to low in any of the wheels, not saying which one it is, or what the pressure is. I think the system is identical for all trim levels.
You also have a button somewhere under the stiring wheel, which you should press after adjusting the pressure to reset the system to the new pressure. There is no indication (beep or otherwise) that it happened.
Very basic.

When I press my “car” button I just get one option and that is to view fuel consumption data.
My brother has an Invincible and gets 2 options, fuel consumption and tyre pressure. If you press tyre pressure you get a screen showing the pressure in each wheel.

My 2013 Icon Nav doesn't show any tyre related info on the 'infotainment screen'. TPMS provides just the useful light on the dash to show that one or more tyres is at a low pressure but gives no clue as to which it might be ... I was a bit disappointed too! I assume that this is normal for the model.

Thank you Phillip, it’s a bit petty isn’t it but I suppose they have to make the models different somehow.

I bought one of these TPMS systems a couple of years ago. They wouldn't send it to New Zealand though so I had it sent to a U.K. address and they sent it on to me.

i like the display showing all for wheels ...the standard system on my SC430 Is just a light on the dash and you have to work out which tyre is low on pressure 😟
