storing the second average frequency as a determination frequency; and

storing a number of the accumulated frequencies together with the second average frequency when the number of the accumulated frequencies is more than a predetermined number in a driving mode.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein, in calculating the low-pressure probability for the speed interval of the tire, when the determination frequency is smaller than a value acquired, the low-pressure probability of the tire is [1-(determination frequency-predetermined low-pressure reference frequency)/(predetermined low-pressure reference frequency determination interval)]*100%.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein, in calculating the low-pressure probabilities for the speed interval of the tire, when the determination frequency is lower than the predetermined low-pressure reference frequency, the low-pressure probability of the tire is 100%.

13. The method of claim 6 , wherein determining that the tire is at a low pressure state when a number of the frequencies acquired in the speed interval is more than the predetermined number and a value acquired by multiplying a low-pressure probability of a first speed interval by a low-pressure probability of a second speed interval is more than a predetermined probability value.

14. The method of claim 6 , wherein determining that the tire is at a low pressure state when a value acquired by multiplying low-pressure probabilities of all speed intervals by each other is more than a predetermined probability value.
