What does Porsche's air replenishment mean?
1 Answers
When the Porsche dashboard indicates the need to replenish air, this is a tire pressure warning signal. The low reading on the tire pressure gauge means the tire is underinflated and requires air. Here are the details about the tire pressure warning: Solutions for when the tire pressure warning light comes on: Reduce the air pressure in all four tires to between 0.8 and 1.0 bar. With the vehicle powered on or running, inflate each tire one by one. When the pressure reaches the specified level, the car horn will sound once; if the pressure exceeds the limit, it will sound three times. Inflate each tire to the correct pressure, and the warning will automatically deactivate. Reasons for the tire pressure warning light to come on: The tire pressure monitoring light may come on due to a puncture in the tire. Sometimes, the light comes on because the tire pressure is too high—when any tire exceeds 3.0 bar, the tire pressure monitoring light will activate. Prolonged driving with low tire pressure can also trigger the warning light. This usually happens when one tire is significantly underinflated, causing the tire temperature to rise during high-speed driving, which in turn increases the tire pressure. In such cases, you should stop the vehicle to rest or replace the tire with a spare one promptly.
