Whenever you check the inflation pressure of the tyres, the tyre pressure warning light may illuminate on the dashboard; resetting this light is done manually through the car's onboard computer menu; select the tyre pressure monitoring menu, then select the reset command and confirm.

This system constantly monitors the tyre inflation pressure using the speed sensors present on each wheel: if a tyre deflates, there will be a change in the rolling coefficient and thus the speed of the wheel itself, and this change will indicate the deflation.
