Locate the TPMS reset button: This is typically found under the dashboard near the steering column or inside the glove box.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button: Hold until you see the tire pressure warning light blink three times, then release the button.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position: Do not start the engine.

Start the vehicle: Engage the engine and drive for approximately 10-15 minutes.
Monitor the dashboard: Ensure the tire pressure warning light remains off during the test drive.
