Method to reset the tire pressure light on the new Infiniti QX50: First, inflate the tires to the normal pressure range; Then start the vehicle and press the menu button (menu) below the center console. Find the "Settings" option on the lower screen; After entering the settings option, locate "Tire Pressure Monitoring Settings" and click to enter. In the menu, click "Reset Tire Pressure Monitoring" to complete the reset. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually, an alarm will sound if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure monitoring system is not reset in time, it will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring light to illuminate. Simply perform a tire pressure reset to resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, it will also trigger the tire pressure warning light. For sensor damage issues, only a complete replacement of the component is possible.
The other day, my tire pressure warning light suddenly came on while driving, which really made me nervous since it's directly related to driving safety. Resetting it is actually quite simple: First, check the air pressure in each tire to ensure they all meet the standard value listed on the door frame sticker, usually around 2.4 bar (cold tire pressure is most accurate). Then, get in the car and press the start button without stepping on the brake to enter ACC mode. Rotate the left steering wheel dial or use the up/down buttons to navigate to the instrument panel settings menu. Browse to find the 'Tire Pressure Monitoring' option, select 'Reset' after entering, and hold the OK button for a few seconds until the indicator light goes off. After resetting, it's best to drive a short distance to verify the light doesn't come back on. Remember, never reset directly if there's a tire pressure issue, or the light will keep flashing repeatedly.
Insufficient tire pressure is a major hazard, as it can easily lead to tire blowouts at high speeds. Before resetting the tire pressure light, always ensure the pressure is normal and top up the air before proceeding. Specific steps: After getting in the car, start the engine and ensure the vehicle is stationary; use the INFO button on the right side of the steering wheel to enter settings, find 'Vehicle System,' then select 'Tire Pressure Reset'; press the confirm button and wait for the prompt sound or the light to turn off. The interface of the new QX50 is user-friendly, and it takes just a minute or two to complete. If the light remains on after resetting, there may be a sensor malfunction, and you should promptly visit a repair shop. Regularly checking tire pressure can reduce the frequency of the light coming on, making for a more worry-free and safer experience.
