Repair and car operation

2.6. Check of a condition of tyres and pressure in tyres

THE GENERAL DATA

Characteristic kind of drawing of a protector at abnormal deterioration of tyres

1. Insufficient pressure in the tyre 2. Non-uniform deterioration because of infringement of corners of installation of forward wheels 3. The strengthened lateral deterioration of a protector 4. An elevated pressure in tyres 5. Cross-section angular deterioration of a protector (infringement of corners of installation of wheels)

The reasons and ways of elimination: Check up pressure and restore to the normal. Balancing infringement, disk deformation – отбалансировать a wheel and to replace a disk. Deterioration or raised люфт in the pendular lever or in draughts – to repair. To repair or replace suspension bracket details.

On a condition of tyres it is possible to receive the important information on a suspension bracket and steering condition still before serious damage will be found out.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Deterioration of tyres can be checked up by means of the indicator of depth of a protector. In tyres the special bandage which becomes visible at residual depth of a protector of 1,6 mm is built in. 2. Watch drawing of a protector of tyres (fig. the Characteristic kind of drawing of a protector see at abnormal deterioration of tyres). Evident signs of non-uniform deterioration of the protector, specified in pictures, specify in necessity of adjustment of corners of installation or balancing of wheels. At detection of a deviation of deterioration of tyres from the normal it is necessary to hand over the car in car-care centre. 3. Regularly check tyres, watch occurrence of damages to a kind of cuts or swellings, delete the stones which have got stuck in a protector or sharp subjects. If weak pressure decrease in tyres check up tightness of the gate for a rating is observed. 4. If there is a suspicion that the tyre is pierced check up a place of a possible puncture by means of a soap solution. Lift the car of from outside lowered wheel and, turning a wheel, обмыльте its solution. In case of leak formation of bubbles will be observed. 5. Carefully check internal lateral surfaces of tyres, watch occurrence on them of traces подтекания a brake liquid. 6. Periodically check and support pressure in tyres. 7. Pressure is checked on cold tyres. The term "cold" means that 3 hours prior to measurement of pressure the car has made one trip on distance of 1,5 km. 8. Turn away a gate cap (it is located on the tyre or under a wheel cap) and densely press a manometre to the gate. Consider indications of a manometre and compare with standard (it is specified on the tablet of the manufacturer strengthened on a rack of an aperture from outside of the driver). If necessary restore pressure to norm. 9. Have in view of that pressure in a compact spare wheel much more above pressure in regular tyres.
