1. Product Overview
1-1 Product Introduction
1-2 Safety Warnings
Before installing this product, please read the following precautions.
Thank you for choosing our tire-pressure monitoring system. The system is used to
monitor the air pressure and temperature data of each tire in real time. The collected
pressure and temperature data will be sent to the display by means of radio frequency.
After the data is received and processed by the monitor, it will be displayed on the display
screen to remind users to avoid traffic accidents, and corresponding alarms will be issued
for different abnormal situations according to the standard pressure and temperature
alarm values set by the user.
The system can improve the comfort of the vehicle, reduce fuel consumption and vehicle
wear, improving dynamic performance.
Be sure to read this user manual carefully before installation and keep the manual
for future use. Thank you!
1) The display should be installed in a location where it will not affect the driving vision.
2) The display should be reinforced to avoid falling during driving.
3) During driving, if the tire temperature rises sharply, the tire pressure will also rise
accordingly. If the temperature exceeds the warning value, stop the car to let it dissipate
heat naturally to prevent brake failure or tire blowouts.
4) If the pressure continues to rise or drop at an accelerated rate while driving, stop to
check for leaks or other problems.
5) When the air pressure is too high, you should be aware of a tire blowout. When the air
pressure is too low, pay attention to fuel consumption and balance.
6) This product can effectively monitor the tire pressure and temperature in real time, but
cannot avoid all traffic accidents or tire blowouts. Using high-quality tires is as important
as this product to ensure that the tire pressure is normal.
7) This product will automatically detect the tires and sound an alarm in case of abnormal
situations, so that the driver does not need to pay frequent attention to it so as not to be
distracted when driving.
1.3 Installation Precautions
1) If the monitor does not feel vibration within 10 minutes, the monitor will automatically
enter the sleep mode. If there is a slight vibration, it will automatically turn on and receive
the data sent by the sensor. If no data is displayed on the screen, it does not mean that
the product is abnormal. When the pressure value changes, it will update the data again.
2) There is a wireless connection between the sensor and the monitor. And the
transmission distance of them is far enough. Designed with multiple anti-interference
functions, the possibility of interference to the sensor and the monitor is extremely low.
3) During the driving process, due to the thermal expansion and contraction of the air, the
tire pressure and temperature will get higher or lower, which is normal.
4) In general, tires have normal natural air leaks. The tire pressure will decrease over
time, which is a normal phenomenon and has no direct relationship with the installation of
this product.
5) If you have any other problems with installation, please contact us.
6) If you have any problems with installation, please contact the agent or distributor.

6.2 Power Saving Mode of the Monitor
Pressure display:
1) 4 sensors: One interface displays the pressure values of four tires.
2) 7 sensors (equipped with spare tires): The display shows the air pressure values of
seven tires in two interfaces. One interface displays the air pressure values of 4 tires. The
other displays the air pressure values of 3 tires (spare tire), switching once every 10
seconds.
When the car is stationary for 10 minutes without charging, the display will automatically
enter the power saving mode. The display will be turned off and will not receive any
sensor data. Press any key or shake the display, it will return to the standby state.
6.3 Automatically Brightness Adjustment
When the display detects that the brightness is sufficient, the display backlight will be
turned on to the brightest. When the display detects that the brightness is insufficient, the
display backlight will reduce the brightness by one level.

"SET" key to confirm. And then press the "-" key to select the interchangeable tire
position of the second tire. The two interchanged tires are flashing, short press the "SET"
key to save and exit to the normal state, which indicates that the interchange of tire
positions has been successful. (If there is no operation within 1 minute in the setting state,
the system will automatically exit the setting mode and return to the normal standby state.)
6. Other Functions
The display is equipped with a built-in rechargeable lithium battery. After being fully
charged, it can be used continuously in sufficient sunlight. Without sufficient sunlight, the
solar battery will not recharge itself. The display power has three levels of display status.
When the display power icon shows( ) , please use the original charger to charge. It
can be fully charged in about 2.5 hours. When the display power icon shows( ), it
means it is being charged by solar energy.
Notice: Please charge the display at 0~45 .

Inflate code learning
The 4 sensors have been coded and marked with their positions before leaving the
factory. Users only need to install the corresponding sensor positions to the corresponding
tires. When the user needs to exchange the tires, or there is a wrong code, or the position
of the sensor is forgotten during the assembly process, the following "inflate code
learning" is available for the user to re-code.
In the standby mode, press and hold the "+" button and release after a beep sound to
enter the learning mode interface. Then you can see the current tire icon on the LCD
flashes, showing the word "Id" and the 6-digit ID codes of the current tire. Short press the
"-" key to select the tire position that needs to be coded, and then install the sensor on the
corresponding tire and then inflate the corresponding tire. When the sensor senses the
inflation, a beep sound will be heard and the ID code of the sensor (as shown below) will
be shown, indicating that the tire ID code has been aligned. Then you can repeat above
operation and use the same method to code other sensors. When all the required ID
codes have been successfully received, press and hold the "SET" button on the display.
Release the button after the beep sound, save the ID code to the display and resume to
the standby state. And if you press the "SET" and "+" keys together, you will not save any
ID code and resume to standby state.

Please note that the following conditions are normal in product use.
1) Please use this product correctly and use it within its allowable range. If it is used
beyond its scope, the company will not be responsible for all consequences.
2) The installation process should strictly follow the instructions of the user manual. If any
damage caused by the installation is not according to the instructions, the company will
not be responsible for it or give any explanation!
3) When setting the alarm value, please strictly abide by its range. Different models should
be set according to the tire parameters or manuals, or the range given by the agents or
dealers. (Generally, if the system is set up, there is no need to modify it in the future.) If
there are product failures caused by self-setting or improper settings, the company does
not bear any responsibility for it.
4) The content of this manual will be subject to change without prior notice. Pictures in this
article are just for illustration. Please refer to the actual product.
5) Be sure to ask an experienced tire installation technician to install. When you need to
disassemble the tire again, please be careful not to damage the sensor.
9. Disclaimer
1. The data update time of the sensor is about 5 minutes. And if you change the sensor to
another wheel, the previous data may stay for a while. If the sensor is removed, there will
still be data staying on the display. This is normal, and it may take up to 2 hours for the
display to completely disappear after hours of data display.
2. There will be a slight air leak in the tire after the sensor is installed. This is normal,
please rest assured to use.
3. It is normal for the sensor to be worn and corroded by the external environment. We
recommend that you buy some extra sensors as backup. When the sensor is abnormal,
you can try to solve the problem according to the following instructions. If the problem is
still not solved, you can contact us for after-sales service to get the replacement sensor.
10. Some Using Tips
It is recommend to test the sensor first. You could take off the sensor from your tire to see
if the machine alarm.
1) If the monitor begins beeping, it means your sensor is in normal operation. Then you
could try to re-install the sensor. If it still does not work, maybe the sensor lacks battery
power. Then you could try another battery again. And here I would like to provide a
change-battery video to help you. The video link is as follows:
https://youtu.be/JXc0sV jN19Y
2) If it doesn’t alarm, it also may mean that your sensor lacks battery power.
You could use another new battery to try again. The battery-change video is mentioned
above, you could refer to it.
4. It is normal for the tire pressure monitor to measure the tire pressure with a certain
degree of accuracy. (When you find that its measurement result is different from your tire
pressure gauge.)
---IF THE SENSOR IS NOT IN THE NORMAL OPERATION---
If you find the tire pressure that the monitor displays is not accurate, there are two
different possible reasons that could explain this issue.
1) The feature of needing some minutes to update the data.
Our TPMS will receive real-time signals. In general, the display will update every 5
minutes. You could wait a minute and then confirm if the reading is correct.
2) Different measuring tools may cause some deviation in the normal range (if you use a
tire pressure gauge to compare). The theory of measure between two devices is different.
Here is the operation theory of the TPMS and of the tire pressure gauge.
The TPMS monitors the tire pressure and the temperature referring to their variations per
unit time. And the tire pressure gauge monitors the tire pressure by getting the
instantaneous data. So it is normal that when you use two different measuring tools, you
would get two data which has a little deviation. But the two different data are also
referenceable.
---IF THE DEVICE SEEMS LIKE IT COULD NOT MONITOR
THE TIRE PRESSURE ACCURATELY---
