Action when warned of low tire pressure
When the inflation pressure monitoring system1 detects low inflation pressure in a tire, immediate action is required.
Check and rectify the inflation pressure when the indicator symbol for the system illuminates and a low inflation pressure message is shown.
Switch off the ignition.
Check the inflation pressure on all four tires using a tire pressure gauge.
Inflate the tire to the correct inflation pressure; see the tire pressure placard on the driver's side B pillar for recommended pressures for factory-mounted tires.
After the inflation pressure has been adjusted, always save the new inflation pressure in the system via the center display.
Please be aware that the indicator symbol will not go out until the low tire pressure has been corrected and a storing procedure has been started for the new inflation pressure.
The vehicle needs to be driven for a few minutes at a speed above 22 mph (35 km/h) for the system to be able to store the new reference value.
Note
To help prevent incorrect inflation pressure, pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. The tires are considered to be cold when they have reached the same temperature as the ambient temperature (about 3 hours after the vehicle was last driven). After driving for a few kilometers, the tires will warm up and the pressure will increase.
Note
- After inflating a tire, always replace the valve cap to help prevent valve damage caused by gravel, dirt, etc.
- Only use plastic valve caps or original Polestar valve caps.
Warning
- Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, which could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
- The system cannot predict sudden tire damage.
