If one of the tyres on your Volkswagen Golf experiences a drop in pressure, the control system alerts you with a warning on the instrument cluster. Once the correct pressure values are restored, you need to reset the control system.

Sit in the driver's seat and turn on the ignition. Select "vehicle" using the buttons next to the display in the centre of the dashboard, then press "setup". In the menu that appears, select "tyres" and then "setup" followed by the "confirm" button.

Wait a few seconds for the settings to update.
