comes on while you are driving. After driving for a few miles (kilometers), the
indicator will start blinking for a short time and then stay on. Tire Pressure
Monitor Problem appears on the driver information interface, but this is normal.
If you replace the tire with a specified regular tire, the warning message on the
driver information interface and the low tire pressure/TPMS indi cator will go off after
a few miles (kilometers).
