You can't see the actual pressure figures, just the light for either green (good) or red (low or flat).

Thats because you dont have TPMS. You have FTM which uses the ABS sesnsors to measure difference in wheel rotational speeds. It didnt give you any warnings because you said they were "all" 20 lbs low so rotational speed would be the same for all 4 tires.
