What to Do When the Tire Pressure Monitoring Shows 'bar'?
1 Answers
Tire pressure monitoring showing 'bar' indicates that the vehicle's tire pressure is insufficient. At this time, it is necessary to check the tire pressure of the vehicle, identify the tire with low pressure for inspection, and carry out repairs based on the issue. The 'bar' warning can only be cleared after the repairs are completed. Tire Pressure Reset Method: First, turn on the ignition switch, then press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a 'beep' sound before releasing it. The tire pressure monitoring system will then store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the warning light on the dashboard will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset. Hazards of Overinflated Tires: Reduced friction and adhesion of the tires, affecting braking performance; causing steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerating wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening the tire's lifespan. Hazards of Underinflated Tires: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; causing heavy steering and deviation, posing risks to driving safety; increasing the movement of various parts of the tire, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal tire heating.
