What is the normal tire pressure for the Haval F7?
2 Answers
The normal tire pressure range for the Haval F7 is 2.4-2.5 bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2 bar in winter and decreased by 0.1 bar in summer. The Great Wall Haval F7 is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system that can monitor tire pressure and temperature in real-time and immediately alert the driver when abnormalities are detected, suggesting effective measures to prevent safety accidents. The tire pressure can be viewed directly on the dashboard. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol, an irregular circle with no seal on top and four small spikes at the bottom, containing an exclamation mark), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure. Typically, an alert is triggered if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, the tires should be checked and the pressure adjusted. The tire pressure monitoring system has not been reset. After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset promptly, the system may still record the previous data, causing the indicator light to come on. Simply reset the tire pressure to resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor. The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, the tire pressure fault light will also come on. In case of sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new part.
I've driven quite a few cars and know that tire pressure is not something to be taken lightly. The normal tire pressure for a Haval F7 typically ranges between 2.3 to 2.5 bar, which is equivalent to 33 to 36 psi, with the exact values marked on the door frame or in the user manual. This is based on the vehicle's design weight and tire type, with SUVs like the F7 having slightly higher tire pressure to adapt to various road conditions. Too low tire pressure can accelerate tire wear, increase fuel consumption, and even raise the risk of a blowout; too high, and the ride becomes bumpy, affecting handling comfort. It's recommended to check the tire pressure with a gauge once a month, especially adjusting it during seasonal changes—slightly higher by 0.1 bar in winter for stability and slightly lower in summer to avoid overheating. Remember to measure when the tires are cold, meaning after the car has been parked for several hours. Developing this habit can significantly extend tire life and save on fuel and costs.
