Check for inflation and condition of your
vehicle tyres periodically.
Inflation :
Check the pressure in the tyres when
they are cold.
You should have your own tyre pressure
gauge and use it at all times. This
makes it easier for you to tell if pressure
loss is caused by a tyre problem and
3
not by variation between gauges.
Keeping the tyres properly inflated
gives you the best combination of riding
comfort, handling, tyre life and better
fuel efficiency.
Over inflation of tyres makes the vehicle
ride bumpy and harsh. Tyres are more
prone to uneven wear and damage from
3
road hazards.
Under inflated tyres reduce your
comfort in vehicle handling and are
prone to failures due to high
temperature. They also cause uneven
wear and more fuel consumption.
Recommended Tyre Pressures

Every time you check inflation
pressure, you should also examine
tyres for damage, trapping of foreign
objects in the treads and wear.
The recommended tyre pressure is
mentioned as a permissible range in
which tyre pressure can be adjusted.
The higher value is recommended for
getting better fuel economy and lower
value is for better ride comfort.
