What is the standard tire pressure for the GS4?
1 Answers
The normal tire pressure range for the Trumpchi GS4 is 2.4-2.5bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2bar in winter and reduced by 0.1bar in summer. This data is based on the international GBT2978-2008 standard. How to check the tire pressure of the Trumpchi GS4: Press the set button on the dashboard to bring up the tire pressure monitoring. The tire pressure monitoring system is a type of active safety device that can alert the driver in time when there are signs of danger in the tires, prompting the driver to take appropriate measures, thereby avoiding serious accidents. Generally speaking, a tire pressure above 2.8bar is too high, and a tire pressure below 2.0bar is too low. Hazards of overinflated tires: The friction and adhesion of the tires will decrease, affecting braking performance; it can cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; it accelerates the wear of the central tread pattern, shortening the tire's lifespan; it increases the vibration of the vehicle body, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; it causes excessive stretching and deformation of the tire cords, reducing the elasticity of the tire body, and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. Hazards of underinflated tires: The friction coefficient with the road surface increases, leading to higher fuel consumption; it makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, which are factors detrimental to driving safety; it increases the movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heating due to excessive rolling; it reduces the function of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; the friction between the tire and the ground increases exponentially, rapidly raising the tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving under these conditions may lead to a tire blowout. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol, an irregular circle with no seal on top, four small spikes below, and an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually, it will alert if the pressure is below 1.8bar or above 3.0bar. At this point, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator light to come on. Simply reset the tire pressure to resolve this. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors the tire pressure, is directly installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation port. If the sensor is damaged during driving, it can also cause the tire pressure warning light to come on. For sensor damage issues, only a complete replacement with a new part will suffice.
