What is the normal tire pressure for a Geely Emgrand?
1 Answers
Geely Emgrand's optimal tire pressure is set between 2.4-2.5bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2bar in winter and decreased by 0.1bar in summer. This data complies with the international GBT2978-2008 standard. The Geely Emgrand's tire pressure monitoring system is directly displayed on the dashboard. It does not show the specific pressure and temperature of each tire, but only displays a tire pressure warning symbol on the dashboard when the tire pressure is abnormal, such as too high or too low. Generally, a tire pressure exceeding 2.8bar is considered too high, while a tire pressure below 2.0bar is considered too low. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, 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; overstretches tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; causes heavy steering and deviation, posing safety risks; increases movement in various parts of the tire, leading to abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; reduces the functionality of cords and rubber, causing delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the bead area and causing abnormal wear; multiplies friction between the tire and the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may lead to tire blowouts. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol with an irregular circle, no stamp on top, four small spikes at the bottom, and an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually triggers an alarm when below 1.8bar or above 3.0bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, the tire pressure monitoring system was not reset in time, causing it to record the previous data, which triggers the indicator light. Simply reset the tire pressure monitoring system. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, installed inside the tire and connected to the tire valve, monitors tire pressure. If the sensor is damaged during driving, the tire pressure warning light will come on. In such cases, the only solution is to replace the sensor with a new one.
