Default TPMS question

Recently I got the low tire pressure warning symbol - when I hit the Tire Display it showed one tire at 32 psi, the others at 33 psi. I imagine we all have similar tire pressure requirements, my 350 label says to set pressure to 33 psi.
SO I’m very surprised that the warning icon would come on at just 1 pound under the required setting.

Pretty sure someone set the threshold at somewhere near 40psi. If you have a reset button inflate the tires properly and hit the button so it saves that setting

Very interesting, I sure hope that is the case and that it can be reset. I'll check it out over the weekend. Thanks

Thanks for your help, I found your instructions in my manual as well. Setting the pressure went text book right down to the pressure warning icon blinking 3 times.
Our last few vehicles had individual tire pressures viewable and warning icons but never had so many customizable features.
I'll have to look into my owners manual more.
Thanks again
