1. Preparation

Gather the necessary tools: tire pressure gauge, air compressor.
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface with the engine off.
Make sure all tires are at the correct pressure before proceeding with the reset.

2. Reset TPMS

Locate the TPMS Reset Button:
- The TPMS reset button is usually found under the steering column or near the driver's seat. Refer to the owner’s manual if needed.
Turn the Ignition On:
- Insert the key or press the start button without starting the engine to turn on the ignition.
Press the TPMS Reset Button:
- Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS light blinks three times, then release the button.
Wait for the Light to Turn Off:
- Start the engine and allow the vehicle to run for a few minutes. The TPMS light should turn off if the reset is successful.
Test Drive:
- Drive the vehicle for about 10-15 minutes to ensure the TPMS system recalibrates and the light remains off.
