Maintaining a uniform tire pressure set by the manufacturer helps to save fuel consumption and also ensures the tire operating mileage conditions guaranteed by the manufacturer. In addition, which is also a very important factor, it ensures the safety of driving a car.

Necessary

Compressor or pump, pressure gauge

Instructions

Step 1

The difference in pressure in the tires of the wheels creates the conditions for their uneven engagement with the road surface, which leads to intense wear of the tread, as well as to uneven redistribution of loads on each suspension unit, and this leads to an imbalance in the stability of the car while driving.

Step 2

Decreased tire pressure increases the load on the side surface of the wheel, which also leads to uneven distribution of the load on the tread with all the ensuing consequences.

Step 3

The increased tire pressure increases the load on the center of the tread, reducing it on the side of the wheel. The consequences of excessively high tire pressures also lead to shorter tire life and reduce driving safety.

Step 4

In connection with the above, it is necessary to check the tire pressure of the wheels every two to three days in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. In cases of detecting deviations, the tire pressure is brought to normal.

Step 5

To pump the wheel, connect the compressor to the cigarette lighter socket, unscrew the protective cap from the wheel valve, put the tip of the pumping hose on the valve and turn on the compressor. Having brought the tire pressure to normal, the compressor is turned off, and the pumping hose is disconnected from the wheel valve. But before screwing on the protective cap, be sure to check the tire pressure with a test pressure gauge, and only then screw the cap onto the valve.
