If you replace a flat tire with the spare tire, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
comes on while you are driving. After driving for a few miles (kilometers), Tire
pressure monitor system problem will appear on the driver information interface
and the indicator will start blinking for a s hort time and then stay on; however, this
is normal and is no cause for concern.
If you replace the tire with a full-size tire, the warning message on the driver
information interface and the low tire pre ssure/TPMS indicator will go off after a few
miles (kilometers).

that it is correct.

a tire pressure sensor mount ed inside the tire behind
the valve stem.
