Land Rover Defender: Tire pressures
Make sure the relevant safety warnings have been read and understood before checking and adjusting the tire pressures.
For vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), inflate the tires to the advised pressures displayed in the instrument panel. The advised tire pressures are displayed in brackets in instrument panel.
Confirm that the TPMS loading setting is correct. If the advised tire pressures are not available in the instrument panel, or if TPMS is not fitted, when the tires are cold, inflate to the recommended cold tire pressures.
Tire inflation procedure
To avoid damaging the valves, do not apply excessive force or sideways pressure on the gauge and/or inflator.
To avoid damage to the TPMS valves, it is recommended not to use rigid tire inflation wands. Rigid tire inflation wands increase the risk of excess leverage and sideways pressure on the valve.
The following procedure should be used to adjust the tire pressures:
1. Remove the tire valve cap.
2. Firmly attach a tire pressure gauge and/or inflator to the valve.
3. Read the tire pressure from the gauge and add air, if required.
4. If air is added to the tire via a manual gauge, remove the gauge and reattach it before reading the pressure.
Failure to do so may result in an inaccurate reading.
5. Refit the valve cap.
