In the situation of the 2013 Kia Rio tire pressure monitoring system, there is a unique method to reset it. You can try driving for 20 minutes at speeds over 40 miles per hour, allowing the onboard system to relearn the sensors as long as the tire pressure is correct. Alternatively, some people have had success by trying a trick. You can deflate each tire by 5 to 10 pounds of pressure in a stationary location, like a gas station parking lot. Then, turn the key to the ON position before reinflating the tires to the correct level. While this method may not work for everyone, a few Kia Rio drivers have reported success with this approach.
I can't locate the reset button. I searched in the manual, but it's near the tire.
To recalibrate the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) on a 2013 Kia Rio, first check that the tire pressure is accurate. Next, start the car and press the reset button located on the right side of the steering wheel. Allow about ten minutes for the reset process to complete. If necessary, you might have to hold down the button until the indicator light blinks.
