How to Reset the Tire Pressure on a 2019 Magotan?
2 Answers
To reset the tire pressure on a Magotan, you can use the multifunction steering wheel. Navigate to the menu, select 'Settings,' enter the i-driver interface, click on 'Vehicle Settings,' choose 'Tire Pressure Initialization' (also known as RPA), and then confirm. Tire pressure, strictly speaking, refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In terms of car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car—its failure can lead to the end of the car's life. Similarly, tire pressure is like the blood pressure of the car, as its level plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion of the tires, affecting braking performance. Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort. Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan. Increases body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components. Overextends the tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the car while driving. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increases the friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption. Makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, compromising driving safety. Increases movement in various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling. Weakens the function of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, excessive friction with the rim, and damage or abnormal wear to the tire bead.
When I drive my 2019 Magotan, resetting the tire pressure warning is actually quite simple. First, start the vehicle and wait for the dashboard to light up. Locate the button on the left side of the steering wheel or the settings key on the multifunction steering wheel. Press it, and the screen will display a menu. Select 'Vehicle Settings,' then scroll to the 'Tire' option and enter the 'Tire Pressure Monitoring System.' Click 'Reset' or 'Calibrate' and confirm. The system will indicate that it's learning the new tire pressure—do not drive the car during this time. Wait a minute or two until the display shows completion. After resetting, the warning light should turn off. By the way, it's best to perform this operation when the tire pressure is normal and the car is cold, otherwise, false alarms may occur. I regularly check the tire pressure, maintaining around 2.3 Bar for the front tires and 2.1 Bar for the rear tires. This not only extends tire life but also saves some fuel. In winter, the tire pressure drops due to cooling, and the warning conveniently reminds me to add air.
