Solution

1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools: tire pressure gauge, OBD-II scanner (if needed).
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the engine is off.

Use a tire inflator to adjust the tire pressure in all tires to the recommended levels, typically found on the driver’s side door jamb.
Confirm that all tires are at the correct PSI using the tire pressure gauge.

3. Reset TPMS

Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Press the "OK" button on the steering wheel to access the menu on the driver display.
Navigate to "Car Status" or "Settings" using the steering wheel buttons.
Select "Tire Pressure Monitor" and then choose "Reset" or "Calibrate."
Confirm the reset when prompted.

Turn off the ignition and then restart the vehicle to ensure the tire pressure light is no longer illuminated.
Check the tire pressure display to confirm that it is functioning correctly.
