Correct answer

  • CRegularmente y en frío.Regularly and with the tyres cold.
Explanation

Tyre pressure should be checked regularly, at least once a month and before long journeys, and always with the tyres cold. When they are hot the air expands and the pressure gauge shows more than the real pressure, which would lead you to leave the pressure too low.
