How to reset the tire pressure light on a Mini?
1 Answers
The steps to reset the tire pressure light on a Mini are as follows: 1. First, check whether there is actually a problem with the tire pressure of the vehicle. After confirming there is no issue, briefly press the button on the left side of the dashboard until "set/info" appears, then press and hold to enter; 2. Briefly press until the tire pressure detection symbol appears, with "reset" below, then press and hold to eliminate the tire pressure warning light. Tire pressure, strictly speaking, refers to the air pressure inside the tire. On the driver's side door, there is a label indicating the standard tire pressure, which is the pressure when the tire is cold, i.e., after the car has been parked for at least three hours or driven no more than 1.6km. The tire pressure is most accurate when measured with the tire cold. The hazards of excessive tire pressure are as follows: 1. The friction and adhesion of the tire will decrease, affecting braking performance; 2. It can cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 3. Accelerates wear on the central part of the tire tread, shortening the tire's lifespan; 4. Increases body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; 5. Causes excessive stretching and deformation of the tire cords, reducing the elasticity of the tire body and increasing the load on the car while driving; 6. Reduces resistance to punctures. When encountering sharp objects such as nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, and impacts can cause internal cracks and bursts, leading to a blowout.
