PART ONE Brief Introduction
Thank you very much for choosing our TPMS. As a reliable vehicle proactive safety device, it provides
real-time monitoring of all the tyres, including air pressure and temperature. It will give warnings about
abnormal conditions, such as leakage, low pressure, high pressure and high temperature. In addition,
our TPMS can identify its corresponding components easily when tyre change or transmitter change.

* This product is a proactive safety system. It could not avoid the accident completely, but can give alert
to drivers about abnormality.
* Please choose a proper model according to your tyres’ standard cold inflation pressure.
* As for baseline pressure, the value should be set within the range of standard cold inflation pressure.
* Keep your tyres’ pressure properly at any time. Both underinflation and overinflation may shorten the
battery life and cause system malfunction.

1.3 How the System Works
A transmitter is installed with the valve stem in each tyre, continuously monitoring the pressure and
temperature conditions inside each tyre of the vehicle, and wirelessly sends the data it collects to the
receiver installed on the dashboard and digitally displays the pressure and temperature. When any
abnormal conditions appear, it will immediately give an alarm.

PART TWO System Installation
2.1 Mounting of Display
Fix the display unit on the dashboard with double-sided tape. Do not block the driver's view. Pay attention
to the viewing angle of the display.
2.3 Mounting of Power Cord
Option 1: Connect the power cord with permanent battery
We recommend option 1. In this option, display is electrified and shows
the data collecting from transmitters even the car is stopped.
1. Connect the power cable with main harness with fuse.
2 .Remove the cover on the side of the dashboard or below the dashboard.
3. Now, if correctly connecting the red wire and the blue wire with the
positive pole and cathode in the circuit board of the car respectively, the
screen backlight will light up in white and display “000” at the four corners
in the display. If the display doesn’t light up, make sure the connection is
right or the switch on the back of display is on.
We recommend to install display on the dashboard near the “A” post but not next to “A” post, or in the
middle of dashboard for better signal receiving.
2.2 Mounting of Dual Long Antenna
1. Place the cable of the antennas underneath rubber layer along the front edge of the dashboard.
2. Place the two antennas underneath the rubber layers of two ‘A’ posts.
4. The joint should be safely wrapped with friction tape. Tie up all the cables with a strap and put in the
compartment. Then replace the dashboard cover.
Option 2: Plug adapter into cigarette lighter
1. Connect the lighter adapter with main harness with fuse.
2. Plug the head of lighter adapter into the cigarette lighter socket.
3. Switch on the power of vehicle (unnecessary to ignite the vehicle), the
screen backlight will light up in white and display “000” at the four corners
in the display. If the display doesn’t light up, make sure the connection is
right or the switch on the back of display is on.

2.4 Mounting and Dismounting of Transmitter
Note: The tyre should be dismounted from the wheel upon the tyre changer manufacturer’s instructions.
To avoid damage during the dismounting/mounting procedures, please refer to 2.4.3 and 2.4.4.
2.4.2 Mounting Position of Transmitters
Pay attention to the default installation position of transmitters and ID modules as follows.
Note: Only plastic or aluminum cap, aluminum valve and nickel plated valve core can be used when it
needs to be replaced.
Note: When a wheel is replaced or rotated, or a transmitter is replaced, please restart the display.
Note: DO NOT use tire sealant or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with TPMS, as damage to
the transmitter may result.
2.4.1 Identify Transmitter
There are four pairs of transmitters and ID modules engraved with A/B/C/D respectively, each pair of
transmitter and ID module can’t be used separately. The nuts also engraved with letter are used to
distinguish the transmitters installed in the wheel.
Note: Only plastic or aluminum cap, aluminum valve and nickel plated valve core can be used when it
needs to be replaced.
2.4.3 How to Install the Transmitter
2.4.3.1Use a self-locking screw ①to join electronic module ②and valve stem ③together. The assembly
is adjustable to fit various angles of the rims.
2.4.3.2 Before the transmitter is installed, the rim around the hole must be cleaned with duster cloth.
2.4.3.3 Insert the valve stem through the rim hole from inside. Adjust the angle between the valve stem and
the electronic module to fit the rim properly, and then screw tight the valve stem.
