Default resetting TMPS

My wife's 07 ZR has the TMPS warning light on because of the dealer changing a front wheel/tire. Pressures are OK. What is the way to reset the system; the manual mentions taking the car back to the dealership.

Sounds like they broke it. It definitely has to go back to the dealer.

TPS issues can only be handled by the dealer.

No they did not brake it. Car's user manual states it has to be reset by the dealer (with the service computer) . Dealer confirmed it on the phone today. when you start the car, the warning light flashes for one minute and then goes solid. This happens after changing a tire or removing a wheel. IMO, this is not safe as most people would delay going back to the dealer for just a reset and may have a real puncture without knowing it in the meantime. I am sure the DOT would force Nissan to change this if contacted.
