INSTALLATIONMonitor 2. There are 4 pieces of the 3M Dual Lock Fastener in the packing box. One was affixed for you on the bottom of the Monitor in the factory; you can choose either one of the other three pieces in the box to put it on the dashboard, with the remaining two as a spare.Note 1: If you don't want to or you do not find it convenient to use the lighter plug, using rechargeable batteries is an Option for powering the Monitor. The process for powering the Monitor by battery power is as follow: 1) Take off the cover of the battery box on the back of the Monitor; 2) Put three rechargeable batteries into the battery box; 3) Cover the battery box; 4) Turn on the Monitor.Note 2: The lighter plug is a special plug with a transformer inside.Note 3: On some vehicles, the cigarette lighter will power off when the engine powers off. If this happens, or if the user accidentally pulls out the lighter plug from the lighter, if rechargeable batteries are already emplaced inside the Monitor, and the power of the batteries is enough to operate the Monitor, the Monitor can switch to the battery power mode a utomatically, with no detriment to the system.Note 4: If you turn off the Monitor, the Monitor can not receive information, treat problems, or display information and alarms at all. Note 5: If the Lighter Plug is connected to the vehicle power and the car will not be used for a long time, the power maybe exhausted and the car may not be able to start. Thus, we strongly suggest that the user pull out the lighter plug or turn off the Monitor if the vehicle will not be used for a long time.1. Plug the small end of the lighter plug into the socket on the side of the Monitor, and put the big end of the lighter plug Into the lighter socket of the vehicle. 2. Turn on the Monitor by switching to “On”.3. Once the Monitor starts to work, the screen should start to display the pressure of the four tires in turn. Before the Transmitters are installed, the pressure and the unit information will be shown on the screen as “ ---psi”.1. Take out the Monitor from the box. 2. Choose a suitable location for the Monitor on the dashboard platform. Make sure to first scrub the surface of the platform with alcohol. Next, strip off the liner of the 3M Dual Lock Fastener, put the sticky side onto the suitable location, then fix the Monitor with the other side of the 3M Dual Lock Fastener on the dashboard. Note : 1. In order to stick the Monitor firmly on to the dashboard, we strongly suggest the user to scrub the location with alcohol.3
1. Inflate the tire to the standard pressure.2. Check the Tire Position mark on the Transmitter shell, the FL is for the front left tire, the FR is for the front right tire, the RL is for the rear left tire, and the RR is for the rear right tire.3. Check whether the rubber seal is placed smoothly and suitably inside of the copper stem of the valve.4. Screw off the current cap of the valve on the tire.5. Screw the Transmitters corresponding to each tire position onto the valve;6. Check each connection of Transmitter and valve with the soap solution to confirm whether the Transmitter is firmly screwed on to the valve or not. Also check whether there is air leakage caused by the installation or the seal of the Transmitters or not.7. Once screwed onto the tire, Transmitter can sense the pressure inside the tire and transmit the data to the Monitor. Information should appear on the screen within six minutes of installation. Note: IMPORTANT! TPMS1209W03 provides a Security Lock for each Transmitter to prevent the Transmitter from being stolen or lost. The use or disuse of the Lock will not influence the work of the Transmitters. If you want to install the Lock, please follow the Installation Steps of the Security Lock on Page 5. The Lock Must be installed together with the Transmitter. Note 1. Pay attention to the current tire pressure, the current pressure should be standard before the installation of the Transmitter. The standard pressure can be found on the User Manual of the vehicle, the Cover of the Gasoline Tank, or the inner side of the door for driver. 2. After installing the Transmitter, please keep the vehicle stable for at least 100 seconds. 3. If one of the Transmitters is broken or fails to work, the others won't be influenced. Only the broken one or the lost one needs to be changed or replaced. 4. The Transmitters should be installed after the Monitor is installed. Transmitter4INSTALLATION

Frequently Asked Questions 1. Q: Why is it necessary to do a periodic check on the pressure of a tire with TPMS? A: As you drive, tires can be damaged or become unbalanced over time. Checking your tire on a regular basis will ensure that it is functioning properly and safely.2. Q: After installation, when changing the batteries or resetting the Monitor, the pressure information doesn't appear immediately. A: Please wait for about 6 minutes. If nothing happens, reset the Monitor Display (turn it off and on) and wait for another 6 minutes. If the current pressure information still does not appear, please contact our customer service line at +86-21-50792951.3. Q: Sometimes the LCD screen is not very clear. A: This usually happens when the temperature inside the car is too low. When the temperature returns to normal, the display will become clear again. If the LCD screen remains unclear while the temperature has returned to normal for more than half an hour, the LCD may have been become permanently damaged due to exposure to low temperatures. In this event, please contact our customer service line at +86-21-50792951.4. Q: Why does the power level of the rechargeable batteries become shorter? A: Low temperatures will influence the work time of the recharged batteries. If the temperature is the car is too low (for example, -30°C) we recommend that you power the Monitor Display Through the 12V Lighter Plug. Once the temperature returns to a higher level, the batteries should operate as normal.5. Q: Blurriness appears on the LCD screen, or there the LCD screen is blank. Sometimes the audible alarm also can be heard. A: This is usually caused by rechargeable batteries of the Monitor Dislpay being low on power. Change the batteries or connect the Monitor Display to the vehicle power through a 12V Lighter Plug immediately.6. Q: Why does the pressure inside the tire rise after running for some time? A: This is because of the friction between the tires and the ground. Heat from the friction of a moving tire will cause pressure inside the tire to rise. The pressure inside a tire can fluctuate up or down approximately 2-4psi depending on the speed of the vehicle. This is normal for most vehicles.7. Q: Why is the Monitor Display not turning on? A: If the Monitor Display is being powered by rechargeable batteries, please check whether the batteries are installed in the correct polarity and if batteries have enough power. If the Monitor is powered by the 12V Lighter Plug, please check the connection between the Lighter Plug and your TPMS unit. If this does not solve your problem, please contact our customer service line at +86-21-50792951. Note: Please do not leave the Monitor Display with the power on in low temperatures (for example, -30°C) for an extended period of time. 16
