In accordance with physical principles, the air
pressure changes as the temperature changes.
The tire pressure increases or decreases by
around 1.5 psi (0.1 bar) for every 18°F (10°C)
change in temperature.
The tire pressure monitoring system takes this re-
lationship between tire pressure and temperature
into account.
You can read the tire pressures to be cor-
rected in this display.
The tire pressure to be corrected is indicated on
the displayed wheel.
