The steps to reset the tire pressure on a 2012 Mini: First, turn on the ignition, 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, completing the tire pressure reset. Precautions for inflating tires: Always use a pressure gauge to check the tire pressure to avoid overinflation, 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 core are not properly aligned, have protrusions, depressions, or other defects, it will be difficult to inflate and measure the pressure. Ensure cleanliness when inflating. The air being pumped in should not contain moisture or oil, as this can deteriorate and damage the inner tube rubber. Do not exceed the standard pressure significantly and then release air, nor should you overinflate after being unable to inflate for a long time while traveling. Exceeding the standard pressure too much can cause excessive stretching of the cords, reducing their strength and affecting the tire's lifespan.
