Do car tires need to be inflated?
1 Answers
Tire pressure should be checked once a week. If the pressure is found to be outside the normal range, inflation is required. Car owners need to perform regular checks, with the specific interval determined based on the condition of the tires. Safety precautions for inflating car tires include paying attention to safety, allowing sufficient cooling, checking the valve, maintaining cleanliness, and moderate deflation. Pay attention to safety: Be cautious when inflating. Always use a pressure gauge to check the pressure to prevent overinflation, which could cause the tire to burst. Allow sufficient cooling: After driving, wait for the tires to cool down before inflating, as driving increases tire temperature, which affects pressure. Check the valve: Inspect the valve. If the valve and valve core are not properly aligned, with protrusions or depressions, or other defects, it may hinder inflation and pressure measurement. Maintain cleanliness: Ensure cleanliness when inflating. The air being pumped in should not contain moisture or oil, to prevent deterioration and damage to the inner tube rubber. Moderate deflation: Do not exceed the standard pressure too much before deflating, nor overinflate due to prolonged inability to inflate while away. Excessive overinflation can cause the cords to overstretch, reducing their strength and affecting the tire's lifespan.
