Question 5721
Tire pressure must be checked with the tires:
- Cold.
- Cold or hot, it makes no difference.
- Hot.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Cold.
Check the pressure with the tires cold, meaning after the vehicle has been stationary for at least one hour or after driving only 2 or 3 km slowly. As you drive, the air inside heats up and the pressure rises, so the gauge reads higher when the tires are hot. If you check them hot, do not let any air out.
