Maintaining proper tire pressure is crucial for your Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross’s safety and performance. After seasonal tire changes, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) needs to be reset to ensure accurate readings and warnings.

Steps to Reset the Tire Pressure Warning System

  • Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position without starting the engine.
  • Locate the TPMS reset button, usually found below the steering wheel or inside the glove box.
  • Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure warning light blinks slowly three times.
  • Release the button and wait a few minutes for the system to recalibrate.
  • Drive your vehicle at speeds above 30 mph for 10 to 15 minutes for the system to register the new tire pressures.
  • If the warning light remains on, double-check the tire pressures and repeat the process.

Remember, correctly inflated tires not only improve fuel efficiency but also enhance handling and extend tire life. Regularly checking your tire pressure and resetting the TPMS after tire changes is a simple step to keep your Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross safe and reliable year-round.
