At every air pump there is 2 types of reading. If u are not sure on how to change the setting ask the attendant. I am sure they are more willing to help u.

Ride safe ok

first and foremost... check your tyre's sidewall! check both sides. and the whole circumference of the wheel.. there shd be max rated pressure when cold at a certain weight moulded on the sidewall of ALL tyres. eg 280kPa when cold at a maximum load of 375kg. so its best if u pump 260kPa max(based on the above example) at the petrol station on ur way home from work or sth. and based of your description of the 'no air feeling' i suggest u check ur tyres cos there may be a slow leak of air..

 

cheers!
