Tire Pressure Warning Reset Switch

Tire Pressure Warning Reset Switch (Satellite Switch)

- By operating the tire pressure warning reset switch, the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver can be set to issue a warning at an inflation pressure that corresponds to the type of tires.
Therefore, the dealer must set the warning threshold to the proper value in order to comply with the local regulations.
- Operate the tire pressure warning reset switch only after the inflation pressures of 4 tires have been adjusted on the vehicle.
- To initialize the system, press and hold the tire pressure warning reset switch for 3 seconds or longer with the engine switch on (IG). When the system receives the initialization signal, the warning light blinks 3 times (1 second on, 1 second off).
- During initialization, the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter measures the inflation pressure of the tires, and registers the signals that are transmitted into the tire pressure warning ECU and receiver at a frequency of once per minute. The initialization process is completed when signals from the 4 tires have been received.
- Initialization is usually completed in 2 or 3 minutes.
