Allow the tire inflation compressor to run
for five minutes. The tire should then have
attained a pressure of at least 180 kPa
(1.8 bar/26 psi).

been achieved after five minutes, see
( Y page 328).
If a pressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar/26 psi) has
not been achieved after five minutes, see
Y
( page 327).
