Where to Check Tire Pressure?
1 Answers
Tire pressure values can be checked as follows: For vehicles equipped with a built-in tire pressure monitoring system, the tire pressure can be viewed on the car's dashboard. The pressure and temperature of the tires are fed back to the combination meter via tire pressure sensors and displayed in real-time on the combination meter screen. For vehicles without a tire pressure monitoring function, it is necessary to visit a 4S store or repair shop to check with professional equipment. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5 bar. In winter, the tire pressure should be based on the standard tire pressure of the car, with an appropriate increase of about 0.2 bar. Generally, the lower limit of the standard tire pressure is sufficient. For example, the lower limit for standard tires is 2.4 bar. If the car is often parked outdoors, the tire pressure can generally be about 0.1 bar lower than the standard to prevent tire blowouts due to high temperatures.
