How to Read the Tyre Pressure Label on Your Car

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Tires

Video tutorial

In this video, learn how to correctly read the tyre pressure label on your car and when to inflate them if there are different options for various types of tyres. First, determine which type of tyre is fitted, approach your car, and read what is written on the tyre: for example, here we have a 275/40 R19 101Y. Now return to the sticker with this information and look for the equivalent option, which gives two options: 5 people or 4 plus luggage, indicating that if unloaded, the pressure should be set to 2.3 bar, or 2.6 bar when fully loaded.

Verify using a portable gauge – a device that costs a few pounds – with cold tyres. Setting the value for full load, the pressure is correct.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
