where the tire meets the rim, opposite from the valve stem (1) as shown.
This is where the sensor is located inside the rim.

valve stem as illustrated with the arrow on the tool pointing
towards the rim; do not use the tool with the arrow pointing away
from the rim as it may not activate the sensor.

sidewall until the horn sounds. The red light on the TPMS reset tool will
illuminate while the tool is active. The horn will sound once within
10 seconds to indicate the process was successful.
Note:If a double horn chirp is heard, repeat the procedure. If a single
horn chirp is not heard, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least a

If after repeating the procedure two short beeps are heard when the key
is turned to OFF, seek assistance from your authorized dealer.
