How to Reset the TPMS Light on a Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Tire pressure warning light

If the TPMS sensor shows incorrect readings or if the warning light continues to illuminate despite having inflated the tyres to the correct pressure, you must perform a reset. This guide will briefly explain how to do this. First, insert the key and turn on the ignition without starting the engine. Then, locate the menu button at the end of the right wiper stalk and press it several times until you see the TPMS light icon on the mini display. At this point, press and hold the "OK" button and release it as soon as the display stops flashing. The reset is complete.
