How to Check Tire Pressure in the 2021 ix35?
2 Answers
Check if there is a SET button next to the gear lever. First, inspect the tire pressure of all four tires to ensure they are at the normal level. Then start the car and press and hold the tire pressure monitoring switch until you hear a "dong" sound. The system will memorize the original tire pressure values of all four tires. Test whether the tire pressure monitoring function is successfully activated. The tire pressure monitoring indicator on the dashboard will light up, indicating that the tire pressure monitoring function has been successfully activated. If the tire pressure of multiple wheels changes, the tire pressure loss indicator in the combination instrument and infotainment system display will issue an alarm.
I've been driving the 2021 ix35 for a while, and checking tire pressure is actually quite simple. After starting the car, there are control buttons on the right side of the steering wheel. You can press them to switch to the information display interface on the dashboard. There, find the 'Vehicle Information' or 'Tire Pressure Monitoring' option, and click into it to see the specific pressure values for each tire. Checking when the car is cold is most accurate, such as before starting after leaving it overnight. A green pressure value indicates normal, while yellow or red means you should be cautious—it might indicate a leak or overinflation. Incorrect tire pressure can easily increase fuel consumption and raise the risk of a blowout when driving on highways. It's recommended to check once a month and maintain the front and rear tire pressures within the standard range indicated on the door frame label to avoid safety hazards.
