Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (Some Models)

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System Initialization

In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that the system operates normally.

  • A tyre pressure is adjusted.

  • Tyre rotation is performed.

  • A tyre or wheel is replaced.

  • The battery is replaced or completely drained.

  • The tyre pressure monitoring system warning light is illuminated.

 

Initialization method

  1. Park the car in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.

  2. Let the tyres cool, then adjust the tyre pressure of all four (4) tyres to the specified pressure indicated on the tyre pressure label located on the driver's door frame (door open).

    Refer to Tyres (Search).

  3. Switch the ignition ON.

  4. Press and hold the tyre pressure monitoring system set switch and verify that the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light in the instrument cluster flashes twice and a beep sound is heard once.

 


If the system initialization is performed without adjusting the tyre pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tyre pressure and it may not illuminate the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light even if a tyre pressure is low, or it may illuminate the light even if the pressures are normal.

Adjust the tyre pressure on all four tyres and initialize the system when the warning light is turned on. If the warning light turns on for a reason other than a flat tyre, the tyre pressure of all four tyres may have decreased naturally.

The system initialization will not be performed if the switch is pressed while the vehicle is being driven.
