Tire Pressure: Know Before
You Go!
Tire care is a critical part of
monthly vehicle maintenance.
Properly inflated tires will
provide safer ride and handling
characteristics, shorter braking
distances, longer tire life, and
improved fuel economy.
Tire Pressure Telltale...
Say, What?
Today, when at least one
tire with low pressure has been identified, Tire
Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) provide
the driver with an alert: a warning lamp on the
instrument panel illuminates. Also known as a
Telltale, most drivers do not know what the alert
is, how to react to the warning or how to inflate
their tires to the correct tire pressure.
There is An App For That: Tire Pressure At the
Touch of A Button
Continental has set-out to
solve the Telltale problem
by developing a “Filling
Assistant” Application.
The application will detect,
notify and assist a driver by
helping them ensure proper
inflation levels. Continental’s
Filling Assistant application
wirelessly links a smartphone
to the tire to graphically report
pressure information to the vehicle owner.
