Show answer
Correct answer
- BEn frío.When cold.
Explanation
Tyre pressure must be checked when the tyres are cold, before setting off or after driving only a few kilometres. When hot, the air expands and the pressure gauge shows more than the real pressure; that is why you must not let air out of a hot tyre.
