ATEQ TPMS Reset Procedure

NOTE: If a tire pressure has been adjusted, or a wheel or tire has been changed or replaced, or repairs have been made to air spring suspension, the TPMS must be reinitialized. System must be reinitialized both before and after pulling a trailer.
CAUTION: When driving with snow chains or a space-saver spare tire, DO NOT initialize the system.
  1. Set the tire pressure on all wheels to specification.
  2. Turn ignition switch to ON position, with engine off.
  3. Press reset button (for no longer than 10 seconds) until tire pressure warning light illuminates Yellow for a few seconds. See Fig 1, Fig 2, Fig 3 or Fig 4 .
    NOTE: On some X5 models, the reset button is marked "RDC".
  4. Drive vehicle. Initialization is automatically completed during the drive, without any feedback issued.
