Tire Pressure Monitor System REINITIALIZATION

NOTE: If a tire pressure has been adjusted, or a wheel or tire has been replaced, the TPM system must be reinitialized.

CAUTION: When driving with snow chains or a space-saver spare tire, DO NOT initialize the system.

Set the tire pressure of all wheels to specification.
Start engine, but do not start driving.
Press reset button (for no longer than 8 seconds) until TPMS warning light illuminates yellow for a few seconds. See Fig 1 or Fig 2 .
Drive vehicle. Initialization is automatically completed during the drive, with no additional feedback.
