Tire pressure notification keeps showing up

When I received my car from dealer, the tire size setting in iDrive was using 'Others' tire setting instead of '245/50/r19'. While after I switched to '245/50/r19', which is the tire size my car is using, and drove for a resetting, iDrive started to keep sending me a notification after ignition says I can continue driving but I need to check tires when they are cold. I live in washington state, weather right now is not that cold like around 40 degrees. Tire pressure is 36 psi and marked as green in tire pressure monitor, seems like there is nothing wrong with it. Anybody has the same issue? Is this normal?

Under Vehicle Settings, note the recommended tire pressure values. The dealer pressurized both the front and rear tires to 38psi and I kept getting the notification. But for the rear tires, the recommended pressure is 45psi. Once I added pressure to the rear tires to the recommended value, the notifications stopped.

I've noticed the recommended pressures change as temp increases, so at least they're pretty good at keep it consistent across the range of temps.
