1 Answers
In winter, the tire pressure should generally be 0.1-0.2 bar higher than the reference value. The tire pressure of a car needs to be adjusted according to the driving environment and seasonal temperature. Abnormal tire pressure not only affects comfort but also impacts driving safety. Here are some tips for driving on snow and icy roads: 1. Clear the windshield: After snowfall, the windshield should be cleared, and snow on the headlights and mirrors should also be removed promptly. 2. Check the vehicle: When temperatures are low, the car should be inspected, especially the windshield wipers. 3. Proper warm-up: After checking the vehicle, start the car and wait for the engine speed to stabilize before driving. 4. Drive at low speed: When driving in snowy or icy weather, control your speed. 5. Maintain distance: When driving on snowy or icy roads, which are slippery, it is important to keep a safe distance between vehicles.
