How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Citroën DS4?

The tyre pressure warning light on the Citroën DS4 can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the corresponding pressure value, which is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres are at this value, turn on the ignition by inserting the key into the ignition switch; this should make the warning light disappear from the dashboard. If it does not reset, start the engine and drive to allow the sensors to read the new values.
