Inflate and Roll: A Guide on How to Put Air in Tires

Properly inflated tires are crucial for a smooth and safe ride. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to put air in tires:

Check the Recommended Pressure: Look for the recommended tire pressure in the owner’s manual or on a sticker inside the driver's door. It's essential to know the correct pressure for your vehicle's tires.

Gather Equipment: Get an accurate pressure gauge and locate the nearest air pump. Many gas stations have these pumps; some may be free, while others require a small fee.

Inspect the Tires: Before inflating, visually inspect the tires for any visible damage, cracks, or punctures. Address any issues before adding air.

Start Inflation: Unscrew the valve stem cap and attach the pressure gauge to the valve. Check the current pressure and compare it to the recommended level. If needed, inflate the tire by attaching the air hose to the valve. Add air in short bursts, periodically checking the pressure until it reaches the recommended level.

Recheck Pressure and Seal: After inflating, recheck the pressure to ensure it matches the recommended level. Once confirmed, replace the valve stem cap tightly to prevent air leakage.

Repeat for all Tires: Follow the same process for all tires, including the spare.

Regularly checking and maintaining proper tire pressure enhances fuel efficiency, extends tire life, and ensures safer travels. Inflate and roll smoothly toward your destinations!
