How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light (TPMS) on a Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid

1. Set the parking brake and turn the ignition switch to ON/RUN with the engine off.
2. Press and hold the RKE transmitter's LOCK and UNLOCK buttons together for about five seconds until the horn sounds twice.
3. Start at the driver side front tire, where the turn signal shows that sensor is ready to be learned.
4. Remove the valve cap and increase or decrease the tire's air pressure for about eight seconds until the horn chirps and all turn signals flash once.
5. Repeat at the passenger side front, passenger side rear, then driver side rear tire, following each turn signal.
6. After two more horn chirps, turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF, set all four tires to the pressure on the Tire and Loading Information label, and replace the valve caps.

• You have two minutes to match each tire and wheel position, otherwise the process stops and you must start over.
• A TPMS diagnostic tool at a dealer/retailer can also be used to match the sensors.
• Do not exceed the maximum inflation pressure on the tire sidewall.
