The preformance of the tire
hermetic seal will be weak.
Wheel deformation and/ or tire
separation.
High pressure(overinflated)
Difficulty in handling the car
The central wheel pattern is
excessively abraded.
The possibility that the hard
road causes damage to the tire is
bigger.
When checking tire pressure, you should
comply with the following instruction:
You can check the tire pressure only
when the tire is cold You can get the
.
proper cold tire pressure reading only if the
car has been in parking for at least 3 hours
or has been driven no more than 1.5km(km).
You need to use the tire pressure
gauge. Estimate the tire pressure by
experience may have errors. In addition,
difference of only a few pounds in tire
pressure will reduce the performance of
taking and driving a car.
Please don't deflate the tire or
reduce the tire pressure after driving. It is
normal that the tire pressure get higher after
driving.
Make sure that the tire valve cover
is installed. If there is no valve cover, dust
or moisture will enter the valve core and
lead to leakage. If the valve cover is lost,
you should install a new one immediately.

mark to indicate when you should replace
the tire. If the depth of the tire is abraded to
1.6mm or less, you can see the abrasion
indicating mark. If you see the abrasion
indicating mark appearing in two or more
adjacent pattern grooves, you need to
replace the tire. The danger of skidding is
greater if the tire is thinner.
If the depth of the tire is abraded to
4mm(mm) or less, the snow tire function
will be lost.
If you find the tire damages such as cut,
crack, deep crack with the cord fabric
exposed or expansion, that means the tire
has an internal damage, you need to
replace it.
If the tire leaks frequently or it can't be
repaired because of the size and location of
cuts and other damages, you need to replace
the tire. If you are not sure, please contact
the service store authorized by BYD.
If the leak happens in driving, don't
continue driving. Even moving a short
distance may cause unrepairable damage to
the tire.
