WARNINGS
1. (TPMS) is designed for vehicles with tyre pressure up to 6.0 Bar/ 86PSI. 2. All sensors in this unit have been pre-set individually for each tyre from factory. 3. Whenever the location of a tyre is changed, the sensors must also be changed
to the corresponding tyre. 4. The display will turn off automatically after the vehicle stops and no movement
is detected for sometime. 5 Approval marks and numbers should not be removed from the product. 6. If the solar energy display is used in temperatures of higher than 80ºC (or
176ºF), the capacity of the built-in battery may be damaged. 7. If the display no longer holds a charge then it is time to replace the display unit
as the display unit battery is non-user replaceable. 8. Discharge and charge fully every 6 months to preserve battery life. 9. Store between -40ºC to +80ºC (-40ºF to +176ºF). Charge between -10ºC to
+65ºC (+14ºF to +149ºF). 10. Do not expose the display unit to high temperatures. 11. Do not disassemble or tamper with display unit and battery.
Driver Distraction warning
· The driver should always operate a vehicle in a safe manner. Minimising the amount of time spent viewing the display will prevent distraction.
· The display unit should be installed securely in a position that doesn’t obstruct the drivers view of the road.
· Do not install the display unit in a position that may hinder the vehicles operating controls.
· Do not install in a location that will obstruct airbags.
22

WARNINGS
Troubleshooting
1. After the installation, there is no tyre data on the display The sensors were not programmed to the display, please program the sensors The display should show the real time tyre data automatically when the speed is
over 25km/h There is a problem with the sensor 2. “–” appears intermittently on the display unit. The signal that is transmitted is a RF signal and is much like a mobile phone
signal. The ACMA allows for other RF signals to interfere with the system signals and this can cause the monitor to occasionally miss a transmission from the sensors. If this persists then you could have a damaged sensor or the batteries could be weak.
Additional Warnings
