1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools and parts.
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the engine is off.
Safety warning: Ensure the vehicle is in park, and the parking brake is set before beginning.

2. Inflate Tires

Sub-steps:
1. Remove the valve cap from each tire.
2. Attach the tire pressure gauge to the valve stem to check the current tire pressure.
3. Inflate each tire to the recommended pressure as indicated on the tire placard using an air compressor.
4. Recheck the pressure after inflation to ensure it meets specifications.
5. Replace the valve caps securely on each tire.

3. Reset TPMS

Sub-steps:
1. Turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
2. Locate the TPMS reset button (usually found under the dashboard near the steering column).
3. Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS light blinks three times, then release it.
4. Start the engine and allow the vehicle to run for a few minutes to complete the reset process.

4. Final Inspection

Sub-steps:
1. Drive the vehicle at speeds above 20 mph for a few minutes to allow the system to recalibrate.
