2. Properly inflated tires wear out more slowly and reduce fuel consumption.
3. Inspect the tires for tread wear. Tread pattern defects (worn areas, uneven wear on the edges of the tire) indicate incorrect wheel balancing and/or installation. If any of these problems are found, please contact your nearest service station to have the problem corrected.
4. Inspect the tread surface for cracks and punctures. Sometimes, after a puncture, a tire retains its pressure for some time. In most cases, a service station or gas station can repair a punctured tire.
5. It is important to inspect the sidewalls of the tires (both internal and external) for rubber wear, cracks and punctures. Inspect the inside of your tires for signs of brake fluid leakage, which indicates that a complete brake inspection is needed immediately.
6. It is impossible to determine the correct tire pressure by eye (especially for radial tires), for this you need a pressure gauge. Please note that built-in pressure gauges at gas stations are often unreliable. It is recommended to purchase an accurate pressure gauge and keep it in the glove compartment.
7. Tire pressure should be measured when the tires are cold (the car has traveled no more than 2 km after being parked for at least three hours). Normally, the pressure in hot studs increases by 0.3-0.6 bar.
8. Unscrew the protruding valve cap and firmly place the pressure gauge on the valve. Compare the pressure gauge reading with the recommended tire pressure indicated in the special table. The plate is usually attached to the driver's door frame.
9. Check all tires and inflate them as needed. Don't forget about the spare tire. Install the valve stem caps.
