  • After replacing suspension or ABS system

1
Park the vehicle on a level, firm surface.

Starting the engine, press and hold the TPMS SET button for about three seconds to reset TPMS. The reset process completes automatically.

After resetting the TPMS, drive the vehicle for approximately 20 minutes to store the new tyre pressure in the system.

* If the low tyre pressure indicator turns on repeat step More Details.

When resetting TPMS, the current tyre pressure is stored as a standard tyre pressure.

CAUTION
  • Without inflating the tyres, if you reset TPMS, the system may not inform you properly even though the tyres are significantly under-inflated. You must check the proper tyre pressure before resetting TPMS.

  • The TPMS may not function properly if you do not reset TPMS although the TPMS needs to be reset.

  • If you push the TPMS reset button whilst driving, the TPMS reset process is not activated. You must push the TPMS reset button whilst the vehicle is at a complete stop.

  • Tyre pressure should be checked and inflated whilst the tyres are cold.

    A cold tyre means the vehicle has been sitting for 3 hours and driven for less than 1.6 km (1 mile) in that 3 hour period.
