Default Low tire warning

I need some help LS owners. My low tire warning light is on and it came on right after I changed the tires out on my LS. I have 20s on it but went to a 245/35/20 from a 225/35/20 (that was the size on the car when i bought it). I don't know why its on because the tires aren't low. Help!

Here you go... From the owners manual...

After replacing the tires or wheels, adjust all
4 tires to specified tire inflation pressure and initialize the
tire pressure warning system. To initialize the system,
turn the ignition switch to “ON” and push the tire pressure
warning system reset switch for longer than 3 seconds
with the vehicle stopped. The following message appears.
"Pressure Initial".

kg19989,

It is under your right knee ( above your ankle ) where the lock/unlock beep volume adjustment is.

Thanks for the info guys. I picked up a LS from carmax and the light pressure light went off on the drive home. I was about to go nuts. I just reset it per instructions and will go for another test drive tomorrow.
