How to check tire pressure on Roewe RX3?
2 Answers
Roewe RX3 allows you to check tire pressure through the vehicle information menu on the combination meter. The tire pressure monitoring system detects tire pressure via radio waves and sensing technology. According to the Roewe RX3 user manual, the normal cold tire pressure for both front and rear wheels should be 0.21 MPa. Since the spare tire is not frequently used, it requires higher pressure at 0.42 MPa. The Roewe RX3 is a 5-door, 5-seater SUV with dimensions of 4408mm in length, 1804mm in width, and 1651mm in height, featuring a wheelbase of 2625mm. The 2020 Roewe RX3 is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable transmission.
I’ve been driving the Roewe RX3 for a while, so checking tire pressure is second nature to me. After starting the car, there’s a small arrow button on the left side of the steering wheel—press it to scroll to the vehicle information menu, find the ‘Tire Pressure Monitoring’ option, and select it. The screen will then display the pressure readings for all four tires, usually in bar. For the most accurate results, it’s best to check when the tires are cold, as this ensures more reliable data. Maintaining proper tire pressure is crucial—keep it at the standard values (typically around 2.4 bar for the front tires and 2.3 bar for the rear). Overinflation increases braking distance and the risk of skidding, while underinflation accelerates tire wear and raises fuel consumption. Once, during a long trip, I noticed the left front tire was 0.5 bar low and topped it up in time to avoid an accident. Make it a habit to check monthly, especially during seasonal changes when temperature swings affect pressure quickly. If no data appears, the sensor battery might be dead or malfunctioning—a visit to the 4S shop for inspection is recommended. This simple and efficient routine ensures safety and saves fuel.
