I've gone out in the pouring rain to get the manual out of my car....

In my manual the TPMS section is at page 53.

OK, so press the SET button on the steering wheel until the DIS shows the menu (Set, Check, Menu off, Help), using the + and - buttons select Set and press the SET button.
Scroll down the menu that appears using the + and - buttons to select Tyre Pressures and press SET.
The Store tyre pressures option should be selected, press the SET button.

That will store the current tyre pressures.

If that doesn't clear the warning it's worth trying selecting the Wheel change option on the Tyre Pressures sub-menu to see if that clears it.

The other clue is whether the symbol at the top of the DIS is a yellow tyre, a red tyre or a yellow tyre with a line through it.

Yellow tyre = slightly low tyre pressure(s).
Red tyre = dangerously low tyre pressure(s).
Yellow tyre with a line through it = TPMS fault.
Thank you kindly, you didn't need to go and get wet! My manual is at home and I was hoping to do this at lunch.
