How to Use the Tire Pressure Monitoring in Magotan?
2 Answers
Magotan's tire pressure monitoring usage method: 1. Turn on the ignition switch, press the ESP and EST buttons on the center console for at least 2 seconds; 2. After hearing the confirmation sound "OK", the new tire pressure value is successfully set. The tire pressure monitoring can be viewed on the combination instrument display screen by accessing the vehicle status menu in the display. The Volkswagen Magotan is a B-class sedan launched by FAW-Volkswagen, with body dimensions of 4866mm x 1832mm x 1464mm, a wheelbase of 2812mm, a top speed of 230km/h, and equipped with a 1.8TSI engine.
As a new owner of the Magotan, I've only been driving this car for a few months and am gradually getting familiar with its various features. The tire pressure monitoring system is quite intuitive to use. When starting the vehicle before driving, if a warning light resembling a tire with an exclamation mark appears on the dashboard, it indicates low tire pressure. In such cases, it's essential to find a safe place to stop, use a personal tire pressure gauge to check each tire's pressure, and inflate them to the recommended values (usually indicated on the door frame). After inflation, the process isn't complete; the system needs to be reset. In my car, this is done by pressing the button on the left side of the steering wheel to access the menu, selecting vehicle settings, and then holding the OK button to reset the tire pressure memory. This system has been a great help. Once, while on a business trip, the light came on, alerting me to a minor leak which I promptly fixed. From a safety perspective, maintaining proper tire pressure helps prevent blowouts or loss of control, especially at high speeds, and can also save some fuel costs. I recommend that new drivers develop the habit of manually checking tire pressure monthly, not solely relying on the system, as it can sometimes lag.
