Tyre Inspection
When to Check Tyre
Inspect all tyres at least once every month.
How to Check Tyres
Check the tyre pressure with a quality
compact type of tyre pressure gauge. Check
the tyre inflation pressure when the tyre is
cold.
Remove the valve cap from the tyre valve.
Press the tyre pressure gauge firmly onto
the valve and take the pressure reading.
If the cold tyre inflation pressure meets the
recommended pressure value on the tyre
pressure label, no adjustment is required.
If the cold tyre inflation pressure is too low,
continue to inflate the tyre to the
recommended pressure value.
If the tyre is overinflated, press the metal
valve core of the tyre valve to deflate the
tyre to the recommended pressure value.
Use the tyre pressure gauge to check the
tyre pressure again. Always install the valve
cap back on the valve core. Valve caps keep
dirt and moisture out.
How to Check Tyre Wear
The tread wear indicator will appear when
the tyre has worn up to 1.6 mm or less of
tread. Tyres should be replaced as soon as
possible after the tyre wear has reached its
limit.
If uneven tyre wear is found, or some
continuous vibration is felt while driving, go
to an authorized PROTON e.MAS service
outlet for inspection.
Conduct a wheel balancing when installing
new tyres.
If the tyres with shallow tread patterns
or exposed wear marks are used
continuously, it may cause the braking
distance to increase, steering failure, burst
tyre, etc., which easily can cause traffic
accidents.
Please dispose the used tyres in
accordance with the rules and
regulations of your local authorities.
Tyre Pressure
The tyre pressure label are posted on the
lower side of the centre pillar of this vehicle,
showing the recommended tyre inflation
pressures.
