What does 'Slow down, drive carefully, check tires' mean?

It means you should check the tire pressure. When aware of tire issues, the system automatically monitors tire pressure in real-time during driving and alerts for leaks or low pressure. The functions of the ABS system and tire pressure monitoring alarm are as follows: ABS System Introduction: This system compares the rotational speed differences between tires using the wheel speed sensors of the car's ABS system to monitor tire pressure. ABS determines whether a wheel is locking up through wheel speed sensors to decide if the anti-lock braking system should activate. When tire pressure decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the tire diameter to shrink, leading to changes in speed. These changes can trigger the alarm system to warn the driver. Function of Tire Pressure Monitoring Alarm: Prevents tire blowouts by monitoring tire pressure and temperature in real-time, addressing issues before they occur. Saves fuel by maintaining correct tire pressure, reducing vehicle fuel consumption. Reduces wear—insufficient pressure causes excessive wear (tire scrubbing), shortening tire lifespan.
