What is the tire pressure range for the Lavida?
1 Answers
The normal tire pressure range for the Lavida is 2.4-2.5 bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be increased by 0.2 bar in winter and reduced by 0.1 bar in summer. This data is based on the international GBT2978-2008 standard requirements. The Lavida does not allow manual activation of the tire pressure monitoring system because it operates automatically and does not require activation. If the tire pressure is abnormal, the system will automatically alert the driver. This type of tire pressure monitoring system is indirect, using wheel speed sensors to detect the rotation speed of the wheels and then determining whether the tire pressure is normal based on the wheel speed data. To check the tire pressure, prepare a tire pressure gauge, locate the factory tire pressure label, press the gauge onto the tire valve to measure the pressure, and read the value. Remember to replace the valve cap after checking the tire pressure. Generally, a tire pressure exceeding 2.8 bar is considered too high, while a tire pressure below 2.0 bar is considered too low. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; causes steering wheel vibration and misalignment, reducing driving comfort; accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; overstretches the 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 misalignment, compromising driving safety; increases movement of tire components, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal heat generation; 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, sharply increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may result in a tire blowout. 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 causes: Abnormal tire pressure: Typically, the system alerts if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, the tires need to be checked and the pressure adjusted. 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 indicator light to illuminate. Simply reset the tire pressure monitoring system. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the tire valve. If the sensor is damaged during driving (e.g., by hitting a curb), the tire pressure warning light may come on. For sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new one.
