Checking tire pressure
1. Remove the valve stem cap from the
tire.
2. Press the pressure gauge securely
onto the valve stem. Do not press too
hard or force the valve stem sideways,
otherwise air will escape. If the hissing
sound of air escaping from the tire is
heard while checking the pressure, re-
position the gauge to eliminate this
leakage.
3. Remove the gauge.
