Solution

1. Preparation

Ensure all tires are inflated to the manufacturer's recommended pressure (refer to the driver's side door jamb for specifications).
Gather necessary tools: None required for the reset procedure.

2. Locate the TPMS Reset Button

The TPMS reset button is usually located beneath the steering wheel or on the lower dashboard.
Consult the owner's manual if the location is unclear.

3. Reset the TPMS

With the vehicle turned to the "ON" position (do not start the engine), press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS indicator blinks three times, then release the button.
The TPMS light should remain illuminated for a few seconds and then turn off.

4. Drive the Vehicle

Take the vehicle for a short drive (approximately 10-15 minutes) at speeds above 30 mph to allow the system to recalibrate.
Ensure that the TPMS light has turned off after driving.
