The LCD monitor can be powered by 2x AAA batteries, or your
car’s power by using the supplied cigarette lighter adapter. To
install the batteries push the lever down on the back of the unit
and insert the negative end of the battery onto the spring side of
the battery holder.
A) Place the fixed lock ring on top of the suction cup bracket
holder (refer to Arrow 1 in diagram)
B) Install the suction cup bracket holder with the holder arm base
B) Install the suction cup bracket holder with the holder arm base
(refer to arrow 2 in diagram), use fixed lock ring to tighten the
base and holder (Arrow 3)
C) Install the monitor holder and holder arm base. Make sure the
monitor holder and base clip is well attached (refer to Arrow 4),
then move the monitor holder down (Arrow 4) and connect both
parts
Settings Mode Button Functions
After holding the Mute Button for 5 seconds, the LCD monitor will
display the setting mode. Under this mode the following buttons are
used for:
Confirm
Lower Temperature/Pressure
Raise
Raise Temperature/Pressure
After all settings are completed the LCD monitor will return to the
main menu following a beep sound.
C. Use hex key to tighten the secure
fit ring (torque 0.71kg-cm (6.95N.cm))
Make sure the ring is not loose.
As each sensor has its own position, you must ensure it is located in the
correct location. When inserting batteries in each sensor make sure not to
mix up the sensor caps from the body as each is specifically designated.
Number 1 refers to “Front left tyre”
Number 2 refers to “Front right tyre”
Number 3 refers to the “Rear left tyre”
Number 4 refers to the “Rear right tyre”
To install the batteries into the tyre pressure sensors:
1) Remove the sensor cap and insert the battery as shown below
(Positive side facing upwards)
2) The LCD monitor will beep and the corresponding display for
that sensor will flash between ‘Lo.P and 00.0’. This is indicating
that the sensor is online, but not yet mounted.
3)
3) Repeat this process with the remaining sensors until all sensors
are online.
4) If any sensors fail to come online, please try a battery from
another sensor, or consult your nearest Tyredog dealer.
5) Once all sensors are online, proceed to fitting the sensors to your
tyre valves.

:
If in the case a sensor is lost, stolen or damaged, it can be replaced with a
‘Learnable Sensor’. These sensors have their own special code and can only
replace those of the same type and wheel location. For example if a number
(2) sensor is damaged it can only be replaced by a number (2) sensor as it is
specifically designated to that sensor location. Learnable sensors can be
purchased individually at an authorised
purchased individually at an authorised Tyredog reseller.
To enter learn mode, hold the Mute button for 10 seconds. The monitor will
then show ‘LEN’ in the four corners of the screen. You must continue hold-
ing the mute button until ‘LEN’ is displayed or Learn Mode will not be
initiated.
Once the system is in learning mode, you can proceed to program your new
learnable sensors. Simply insert the battery into the learnable sensor to
activate its code in the monitor’s memory. When the code is learnt, the
monitor will beep once, and the new code will be displayed in the
corresponding wheel location on the display.
If a battery is inserted into a non-learnable original sensor, the monitor will
beep 3 times to indicate that it is not a learnable code. If you hear 3 beeps
with your learnable sensor, please contact your reseller.
A) Due to the rubber valve stem aging under high temperature and sun exposure it
may cause cracks on the rubber stem, therefore we recommend metal valve stems.
B) Please choose the installation location of the LCD monitor carefully so that it
will not interfere with the driver whilst operating the vehicle.
C) Please make sure the LCD monitor is firmly fixed to the front windshield or
dashboard
E) Please ensure the sensors are fitted tightl
E) Please ensure the sensors are fitted tightly. If necessary pour soapy water on the
valve stem to check for any possible air leaks
F) If tyre pressure is dropping, please stop the car immediately to check if the tyre
is deflating or another problem is happening
G) Cautions regarding the lithium battery-
i)Do not touch any metal objects
ii)Do not swallow, recharge or dispose of in a fire
H) Please do not operate this device whilst driving
H) Please do not operate this device whilst driving
Tyre Pressure Indicators disappear from / do not appear on the display
1) Please make sure the power switch is on
2) Please make sure the monitor has a battery inserted
3) Be sure to check the direction of the battery when installing it. (Positive side up)
4) Please make sure to check the battery’s charge, a replacement battery may be needed after
extensive use of the product
5)
5) Please make sure the system isn’t in ‘sleeping mode’ as the ‘sleeping mode’ will be trig-
gered when the system has been idle for more than 20 minutes as a power-saving feature.
You can disable sleeping mode by plugging in the monitor or pressing any button on the
monitor
6) If using the power cord to power the monitor, make sure it is connected
No connection between sensors and monitors
1) Please ensure the sensors are configured within an appropriate distance from the monitor.
This system the TD1000A-X is designed for a passenger car. If installed on other vehicles
the system can’t guarantee its functionality
2) Ensure the sensor has a battery installed, and correctly installed
3) Be sure to check the battery’s charge before installing
4) Replace the sensor battery with a new lithium battery
5)
5) Make sure the sensor hasn’t been mixed up with other systems. Each sensor has its own
unique number and the monitor can only receive information from the pre-identified numbers
and cannot accept any other sensors
6) To ensure maximum reception between sensor and monitor, mount the monitor on the
windshield.
When the low battery symbol appears on the monitor if the user continues to operate the
device it may cause the monitor to not functional correctly.
The monitor may revert to ‘sleeping mode
The monitor may revert to ‘sleeping mode’ when temporarily parked or when driving at a
stable speed as a power-saving feature. You can simply bump or press any button to wake the
monitor.
Monitor falling from the windshield
1) Please make sure the surface of the glass is clean and flat to allow the best connection
between the glass and the suction cup.
Pressure difference between the front and rear tyres.
1) Many environmental factors cause tyre pressure to rise or fall including hot weather or
1) Many environmental factors cause tyre pressure to rise or fall including hot weather or
warm tyres which will cause the pressure to rise.
2) Due to the engine position predominantly in the front of the car, the front tyre temperature
is higher than the rears, causing the front tyre pressures to be greater than the rears.
If these solutions do not help improve the situation. Contact your nearest dealer.
When the monitor is turned on, if it is not touched after more than 20
minutes the monitor will automatically enter ‘sleep mode’. In this
mode, the monitor will be turned off to save battery power and extend
the battery life. Any vibration or push of a button will automatically
wake the monitor.
