–
For inspection of tire pressure, the tire must
be in a cold state. When the temperature
increases, the tire pressure can be slightly
higher than the specified value, and it is not
necessary to reduce the tire pressure.
–
Balance the weight of occupants and
luggage, avoid slopes, and adjust tire
pressure according to car load.
–
Check the tire pressure of the spare wheel or
emergency spare wheel at the same time.
–
Install and tighten the valve cap.
NOTE
•
The current tire pressure of the wheel can
be checked through the information on the
display of the instrument cluster.
•
Be sure to refit the valve cap to the valve
core. The valve cap can prevent dust and
moisture from entering the tire.
WARNING
•
Abnormal tire pressure may cause tire
burst, resulting in a traffic accident,
injury or even death.
•
Check the tire pressure at least once a
month or before long-distance driving.
The tire pressure must meet the
specified requirements to prevent
accidents.
•
Insufficient tire pressure will exacerbate
tire deflection, and tires are extremely
prone to overheating, which may lead to
tread separation and tire burst.
•
Abnormal tire pressure, too low or too
high, will cause early wear of tires and
reduce the maneuvering stability of the
car.
Service life of tires
Service life of tires depends on tire pressure,
driving style and tire assembly conditions.
If the front tires are worn more serious than the
rear tires, it is recommended to perform tire
rotation for the front and rear wheels as shown, so
as to make the service life of all tires about the
same.
WARNING
For cars with a tire pressure monitoring
system, tire rotation or replacement needs
to be operated by professionals at the GAC
Motor authorized shop.
