过年啦！你今年也打算开长途车回乡团员吗？为了你在路上的安全，这些关于汽车轮胎的知识你一定要知道！ 我的轮胎要打多少风？ 维持适当的胎压可以帮助延长轮胎寿命，确保行驶安全和保持最佳燃油里程。大马通用的胎压单位为PSI或者kPA。每个车型的标准胎压都不一样。开车的朋友们必须知道适合你车子的胎压，并养成定期检查的习惯（两周一次）。 轮胎打风3个简单步骤： 1 – 找出适合你的车型的胎压 你可以在车门旁找到厂家建议的前轮和后轮的胎压。（现在才知道的朋友请举手。） 2 – 到加油站使用轮胎打气泵 大马的加油站的轮胎打气泵都很容易使用。你可以用轮胎打气泵来检查胎压也可以用来打气。多数的轮胎打气泵都提供单位换算图表。不管是PSI或者kPA，你只要根据厂家的建议即可，使用哪种单位都是一样的气压。利用加（+）或减（-）的按钮来调整你想要的胎压。 3 – 开始打风很多没有经验的朋友一听到充气时所发出的噪音都会被吓到，但千万不要害怕！这个时候应该按紧充气杆，不然不止没有为轮胎充气，反而会“放气”。当你听到哔哔哔的声音就表示你的轮胎充好气了。最后不要忘了把充气塞锁回去。 重点：如何从轮胎表面看出胎压是否合适 轮胎外侧磨损：胎压过低 (Under inflation) 如果你发现轮胎外侧磨损，那就表示你的胎压过低。有时候你会感觉车子特别的重？那是因为轮胎气压过低。在这样的状态下行驶会导致滚动阻力增加，油耗升高！如果你不定时检查胎压，你的轮胎会在你不经意的时候漏气导致胎压过低。错误观念：为了增加平稳，故意维持低于标准胎压。 轮胎中心过度磨损：胎压过高 (Over inflation) 如果轮胎中心比两侧更加磨损，那很有可能你的胎压过高。胎压过高的轮胎与路面的接地面积变小，轮胎抓力减少，这样会大大的影响行驶安全和轮胎寿命！减震能力和舒适性也会减低！错误观念：把轮胎打满一点可以帮助提升加速度。 温馨提示 – 在早上或者轮胎冷却的时候检查胎压。 – 如果运载重物或多人，检车车主手册弄清楚载重时所需的气压 你还在等什么呢？赶快在过年前检查你的轮胎！ 还有记得把这个资讯分享到Facebook与亲朋戚友分享吧！ CARPUT提供快捷与可靠的道路救援服务（电箱充电/更换，备胎更换，拖车，汽油递送）。服务地区为巴生谷一带。现在就下载CARPUT app以防万一！
