How to Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring on the Teana?

Teana tire pressure monitoring reset method: First, turn on the ignition switch, then press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "ding" sound before releasing it. The tire pressure monitoring system will then store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the warning light on the dashboard will turn off, indicating the tire pressure reset is complete. The tire pressure monitoring indicator is a yellow symbol, an irregular circle with no seal on top and four small spikes at the bottom, containing an exclamation mark inside. The illumination of the tire pressure monitoring indicator indicates abnormal tire pressure. Abnormal tire pressure is generally caused by one of the following three reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually, an alarm will be triggered 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 reset is not performed in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator to light up. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which is used to monitor tire pressure, is directly installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the tire pressure sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, it will also cause the tire pressure warning light to illuminate. For sensor damage issues, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.
I've been driving my Teana for many years, and resetting the tire pressure monitoring is quite simple. First, park on a level surface with the engine running but not moving, ensuring all tires are inflated to the standard pressure (the exact values are on the label by the door frame). Then, use the directional buttons on the left side of the steering wheel to navigate the dashboard menu. Find the 'Vehicle Settings' or 'Maintenance' option, scroll down to 'Tire Pressure Monitoring System,' enter the menu, and select 'Initialize' or 'Reset' to confirm. After resetting, a completion signal will appear, and the system will automatically calibrate after driving a short distance. If the warning light remains on after resetting, there might be a sensor issue or incorrect tire pressure that needs checking. Make it a habit to reset the system whenever you change tires or during seasonal transitions to avoid false alarms and maintain driving safety. Incorrect tire pressure can be dangerous—I once nearly had an issue on the highway because I forgot to reset it beforehand.
