1. Preparation

Ensure all tires are inflated to the manufacturer's recommended tire pressures (found on the driver's side door jamb).
Gather required tools: tire pressure gauge and the vehicle's owner's manual for reference.

2. Resetting the TPMS

Start the Vehicle

Access the TPMS Reset Button
- Locate the TPMS reset button, which is typically found under the steering wheel or in the glove compartment.
Press and Hold the TPMS Reset Button
- Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it. This indicates that the system is resetting.
Drive the Vehicle
- Drive the vehicle at speeds above 30 mph for about 10 minutes to allow the system to recalibrate and recognize the new tire pressures.
Turn Off the Engine
- After driving, turn off the engine and restart it to check if the tire pressure warning light has turned off.
