Solution

1. Preparation

Tools Required: Tire pressure gauge, OBD-II scanner (optional), owner's manual
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the tires are cold for an accurate pressure reading.

2. Inflate Tires

Use a tire pressure gauge to check each tire's pressure.
Inflate any tires that are under the recommended pressure indicated in the owner's manual (typically found on a sticker inside the driver's door).

3. Reset Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Manual Reset:
1. Turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
2. Locate the TPMS reset button, usually found beneath the steering wheel or in the glove compartment.
3. Press and hold the reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it.
4. Start the engine and wait for about 20 minutes to see if the light turns off.
Using the Vehicle Settings:
1. With the vehicle on, navigate to the “Settings” menu on the infotainment screen.
2. Select “Vehicle” and then “TPMS Calibration.”
3. Follow the prompts to reset the TPMS.

4. Verify Tire Pressure

After resetting, recheck all tire pressures to ensure they remain at the recommended levels.
