How to Reset and Adjust the Tire Pressure of Mitsubishi Outlander?
2 Answers
To reset the tire pressure of GAC Mitsubishi Outlander, first turn on the instrument power, then press and hold the reset button until the low tire pressure warning light goes off. Press and hold the reset button again until the low tire pressure warning light flashes three times and then goes off. Here is some related information about tire pressure: 1. Introduction to Tire Pressure: Strictly speaking, it refers to the air pressure inside the tire. Tire pressure is closely related to the performance of the car, such as comfort and load capacity, and also affects the lifespan of the tire. 2. Hazards of Low Tire Pressure: Low pressure will increase the deformation of the tire body, leading to cracks on the sidewalls and causing flexing movements. This results in excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue of the cord layer, and breakage of the cords. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, speeding up wear on the tire shoulders. 3. Hazards of High Tire Pressure: Excessive pressure will overstretch and deform the tire cords, reducing the elasticity of the tire body. This increases the load on the car while driving, and impacts may cause internal cracks or blowouts. High pressure also accelerates wear on the tire tread and reduces its resistance to puncture.
As a long-time Mitsubishi Outlander driver, I can tell you that tire pressure reset isn't hard to handle. First, make sure all tire pressures are adjusted to normal values—usually the sticker on the inside of the door frame shows recommended numbers, like 32 psi for front tires and 35 psi for rear ones. After starting the vehicle, look for the button below the left side of the steering wheel or on the dashboard; hold it for a few seconds until the tire pressure light flashes and goes off. Some newer models might require selecting the reset option in the vehicle settings menu on the info screen. Remember, don’t rush to reset when the warning light comes on—check if there’s an actual tire issue or leak first to avoid misjudgment. After resetting, the system automatically recalibrates, improving driving safety and reducing fuel consumption. I check my tire pressure weekly—developing this habit can prevent a lot of trouble.
