TPMS Calibration Procedure

The calibration begins when TPMS switch is pressed. The calibration is completed after driving at 31 to 62 mph (50 to 100 km/h), steadily without much acceleration or deceleration, for about 18 minutes. Full functionality of the system cannot be performed properly if the calibration is not completed.

  1. Make sure the tires are inflated to the specified tire pressure listed on the doorjamb label.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
    NOTE: Vehicle must be stopped with the transmission in neutral (M/T) or P or N (A/T, CVT).
  3. Press the TPMS switch (A) for 3 seconds. See Fig 1.
  4. When the calibration successfully begins, the indicator (B) blinks twice.
    NOTE: If the indicator does not blink, check the TPMS switch.
  5. The calibration process finishes automatically. It requires approximately 30 minutes of cumulative driving at speeds between 30-60 mph (48-97 km/h).
    NOTE: During this period, if the ignition is turned on and the vehicle is not moved within 45 seconds, you may notice the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes on briefly. This is normal and indicates that the calibration process is not yet complete.
  6. See Calibration Completion Check. 
NOTE: The calibration check process will be interrupted if the vehicle moves. If the indicator does not go off after 2 seconds, keeps blinking, or stays on when the vehicle is in the ON mode, see appropriate manufacturer service information.
