CHECKING THE TIRES

CHK ADJ

1.Measure:

●Tire pressure (cold tire pressure) Out of specification → Adjust.

NOTE:

●The low-pressure tire gauge 1 is included as standard equipment.

●If dust or the like is stuck to this gauge, it will not provide the correct readings. Therefore, take two measurements of the tire’s pressure and use the second reading.
