Frequently asked questions

How to use an air pump to inflate tires?

  1. First, remove the valve cap from the tire you wish to inflate and check the recommended tire pressure for your vehicle, typically found in the owner's manual or on a placard inside the driver's side door.
  2. Next, securely attach the air hose to the valve stem.
  3. If the compressor allows, set the desired tire pressure.
  4. Press the inflation trigger and keep an eye on the pressure gauge.
  5. Add air in short bursts, checking the pressure intermittently to avoid overinflation.
  6. Once you've reached the desired pressure, remove the hose, replace the valve cap.
  7. Usually there are specific instructions provided by the gas station regarding the use of the air pump.

What is recommended air pressure for tires?

The recommended air pressure for car tires varies for each vehicle, with most falling within the range of 28 to 36 PSI (pounds per square inch).

You can use our Tire Pressure Calculator to find recommended pressure for your tires.

The air pressure for your cars' tires is set by the manufacturer. You can find this information in your car's operator manual or on a sticker located on the inside of the driver's door post.

If necessary, add or release air until the specified pressure is reached. If checked when hot, tire pressure can be as much as 4–6 psi (30–40 kPa, 0.3–0.4 kgf/cm2) higher than if checked when cold.
