Garage Temporarily Empty
"Pre-Safe Activated"

My pre-safe was activated today when I had to jump start my car due to a dead battery.
How do I re-set this pre-safe warning?
Thanks.

Shut the car off, restart it. If it comes back you may have a sensor out. Mine has gone off dozens of times due to a BAS ESP issue. Once solved I never saw it again, and that is with no dealer reset. (tires were causing my issue)

I had a flat battery and after the jump start I had a "presafe off - read manual" warning. I tried speeding up to 40 mph and breaking, but that did not resolve it immediately. Nevertheless, 10 minutes later (car was idling) the message had gone.

PS: my ABC also showed a fault (do not move the vehicle) and did not even lift the car after starting. I fixed that by pressing the button "lift the car" on the dash. All was well after that.
