How to reset the tire pressure warning on the 2021 CR-V?

Method to reset the tire pressure warning on the 2021 CR-V: First, turn on the ignition switch, then press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button. After hearing a "beep" sound, release the button. 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. Precautions for inflating tires: Always use a pressure gauge to check the tire pressure to avoid over-inflation, which can cause the tire to burst. After stopping the vehicle, wait for the tires to cool down before inflating, as driving increases tire temperature, affecting the pressure. Check the valve stem. If the valve stem and valve core do not fit smoothly or have any protrusions, depressions, or other defects, it may hinder inflation and pressure measurement. Ensure cleanliness during inflation. The air being pumped in should not contain moisture or oil to prevent deterioration and damage to the inner tube rubber. Do not exceed the standard pressure excessively during inflation and then release air, nor over-inflate due to prolonged inability to inflate while traveling. Exceeding the standard pressure too much can overstretch the cords, reducing their strength and affecting the tire's lifespan.
That day, I was driving my 2021 CR-V for an outing when the tire pressure warning light came on halfway. First, I found a safe place to pull over and used my portable tire pressure gauge to check all the tires: some were below the standard value of 32 PSI indicated on the door frame label, likely due to the low temperature. I used an air pump to inflate them to the correct pressure. Back in the car, I started the engine, pressed the control stalk on the right side of the steering wheel a few times to enter the instrument menu, selected Vehicle Settings, then Tire Pressure Monitoring Reset, and confirmed initialization. The warning light disappeared, and after driving for a while, the system automatically recalibrated. I've made it a habit to check the tire pressure every month to avoid unexpected warnings; during seasons with significant temperature changes, I do it more frequently to protect the tire lifespan.
