1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools: Tire pressure gauge, air compressor (if needed).
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.

2. Adjust Tire Pressures

Use the tire pressure gauge to check each tire's pressure.
Inflate or deflate the tires to the manufacturer’s recommended pressure (usually found on a sticker inside the driver’s door).
