How to decrese tire pressure?

Hello, I noticed that my car has the tire pressure a little high than what the manual suggests. How do you decrease it? Any tools needed?

just take the cap of and use any straight object to bend the metal thing in the middle of the valve to the side. The reserve of some pressure gauges also have special things on them to easily deflate tires.
