Also, check the correct pressure (measured in "bar"), which is listed in the owner's manual as well as on the labels inside the driver's door frame. Remember that the front and rear axles have different pressures; do not forget to check the spare wheel or the functionality of the inflation kit. If necessary, reset the onboard TPMS system.
