2.1 General
In addition to the safety instructions speciied in these
installation instructions, the “General Safety Notes” (arti-
cle no.: 17342240000) belonging to the product must be
observed.
Hazards that could occur during a particular action are
described before the instructions for each step.
Failure to observe the “General Safety Notes” and procedur-
al instructions speciied in these installation instructions can
lead to considerable hazards.
2.2 Prohibited modiications
All modiications and changes to the system are prohibited.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for any resulting
damage.
In the event that conversions or modiications to the system
should become necessary, contact the manufacturer.
2.3 Intended use
This ContiConnect™ Live solution is only intended to,
■determine the condition of each tire (e.g. tire pressure or
tire inner temperature),
■determine the vehicle position and current state,
■transmit the collected data to an external evaluation unit
via GSM.

Safety
This solution may only be used for its intended purpose
within the limits stipulated in the technical data.
Use for any other purpose is not considered as intended use.
Operation of the solution in a faulty condition is prohibited.
No claims of any kind will be accepted for damage resulting
from use for other than the intended purpose.
The risks associated with such improper use shall be borne
solely by the user.
2.3.1 Use of the tire sensors
Even if continuous technical monitoring is ensured, the op-
erator must make sure that the condition of the tire sensor
is checked regularly, at the latest after 20 000 km
(12 425 miles) or after 6 months.
In the case of continued use of the tires on other vehicles
where monitoring is not ensured, the tire sensors must irst
be removed from the tires.
2.4 Qualiications for installation
The following qualiications are speciied in this Installation
Manual:
■Qualiied sta
is deemed capable of independently carrying out the
work assigned to them and of recognizing and avoiding
possible dangers due to their technical training,
know-how and experience (tire mounting and repair,
mechanical and electrical automotive experience) and
their knowledge of the relevant regulations.
The solution may only be installed by persons who have
been trained for this work and who have technical know-
how of vehicle electronics and tire itting.

* The typical service life applies to a long-distance vehicle operated at mod-
erate outside temperatures and with correct tire pressure.
It is assumed that the user does not connect to the tire sensor via Bluetooth
(pairing).
Deviations from these general conditions can lead to a shortening of the
typical service life.
Exemplary variations, but not exhaustively limited, are:
– high internal tire temperatures (Caused by e.g. high ambient temperatures,
lower tire pressure, overload, etc.)
– regular connections via Bluetooth
– high proportion of standstill phases/low speed
– high proportion of Stop-and-Go phases (urban traic)
