Important Information
FCC Notice
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation. This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This device generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this device causes harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
factoring measures:
•Reorientorrelocatethereceivingantenna.
•Increasetheseparationdistancebetweenthedeviceandreceiver.
Connect the device into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to which the receiver is connected.
Caution: Any changes or modications in construction of this device which are not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the device.
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, this device and its antenna must not be co-located
or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Scope of Use and Warnings This X-tra Seal
Smart Sensor™ is a sensing device designed to measure and display tire operation and/or to alert the driver
when air pressure and temperature irregularities are detected. It is the responsibility of the driver to react
promptly. Abnormal tire ination pressure should be corrected at the earliest time possible.
Reacting to Alerts
When an alert or warning is displayed or sounded, reduce the vehicle’s speed and proceed slowly to a safe
location to have the tire inspected and serviced. The low/high pressure alert indicates the tire pressure is not
within the factory’s set limits and the high temperature alert indicates that the tire’s temperature has surpassed
the factory’s set limits.
Use of Chemicals
During tire ination, any use of internal sealants and propellants may aect the operation of the sensor/
transmitter. The use of such chemicals is not recommended and the product’s warranty will be void if the sensor
comes in contact with them.
Battery Information
o If the Pro+ Tool has not been used for a prolonged period, it may be necessary to connect the charger then
disconnect it to begin charging the battery.
o If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes to charge before the“MAIN MENU“
appears on the Pro+ display.
o Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as a coin,
paper clip, or pen comes in direct contact with the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals on the battery. Do not
dispose of batteries in a re as they may explode. Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries
according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as common waste.
o Do not dismantle or shred batteries. In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact
with the skin or eyes. In the event of such a leak, ush skin or eyes immediately with water and seek medical
help immediately.

Charging the Pro+ Tool
The Pro+ Tool has a rechargeable battery. The tool takes approximately 2 hours to
charge from a fully depleted battery. Only use a DC Adapter that has the exact power
rating as the factory supplied charger. (15V / 1A). Any other Voltage rating could perma-
nently damage the tool and void the warranty.
When the Pro+ Tool battery is very low, the Low Bat Indicator light will illuminate.
When this happens you should plug into a power source soon. You can continue to use
the tool while it is charging. If the tool is powered on and charging, the battery life status
icon will animate. The Charging Indicator Light will also illuminate when the tool is
charging. Note that once the tool is fully charged the charge indicator light will no longer
illuminate. Always be sure to fully charge the Pro+ Tool before updating.

Scan Sensor
Scanning a TPMS Sensor, also referred to as triggering, or waking up a sensor, is the
process of wirelessly reading the information o of a TPMS Sensor. The Pro+ Tool can scan
most OEM and Aftermarket TPMS Sensors.
1. Select a Vehicle
2. Highlight Scan Sensor
3. Hold Side of Pro+ Tool Against
the Sidewall of the Tire
4. Press ENTER
5. The Pro+ Tool Will Trigger Sensor
6. Pro+ Tool Will Display Sensor Info
NOTE: Some Tire and Wheel Packages May
Cause Interference. The Side of the Pro+ Tool
has 2 Arrows with Tire noted. If you have trouble
scanning, try repositioning with the arrows over
the sidewall of the tire and pointing towards the
sensor.

Program New Sensor
This function will create a new TPMS Sensor from a blank Smart Sensor. It will create a
NEW ID. It is very important to note that whenever you use this function to create a new
sensor you MUST ALWAYS perform the vehicle relearn procedure.
1. Select Vehicle in Tool
2. Scroll and Highlight
PROGRAM NEW SENSOR
3. Place Smart Sensor in Cradle
and Secure Thumb Latch.

Copy Sensor
The Copy Sensor feature allows you to create a Smart Sensor with an existing sensor ID.
In most cases, this allows you to avoid performing a vehicle relearn procedure. There are
two methods to copy a sensor. You can wirelessly scan the sensor ID or manually input
the sensor ID.
1. Select Vehicle in Pro+ Tool
2. Highlight and Select Copy Sensor
3. Press ENTER (Copy Sensor)

Copy Sensor
Many OEM Sensors have the Sensor ID printed on the sensor housing. The ID may be
formatted dierently depending on the sensor. The ID will contain between 7 and 10
digits and will either contain all numeric characters or alphanumeric characters [0-9 A-F].

There are many numbers on the sensor and it
can be challanging to nd the correct one.
The ID will contain between 7 and 10 digits and
will either contain all numeric characters or
alphanumeric characters [0-9 A-F]. It will NOT
be the FCC-ID, IC or contain dashes.

OBDII
Many Asian vehicles require an OBDII connection in order to perform the vehicle’s
relearn procedure. The OBDII menu option is only displayed for vehicles that support an
OBDII connection. These steps will show the basic OBDII tool operation. You perform the
OBDII relearn after all sensors are installed on vehicle and are working.
1. Select Vehicle in Tool
2. Scroll and Highlight OBDII
3. Scan First Sensor by Pressing ENTER
4. Use Up Arrow To Select Next Wheel
5. Repeat Step 3 For Each Sensor
Some vehicles have a TPMS Sensor in the spare tire.

OBDII Errors
NOTE: Some vehicles require additional steps
after the OBDII portion of the relearn is com-
plete. You may have to drive or scan sensors
after you receive the RELEARN COMPLETE
message.
The OBDII Module is sold separately as it is not
required for all situations, and many service fa-
cilities already have a tool capable of perform-
ing this function.
17-144-2 OBDII Module
If you see an error on the screen while
performing an OBDII Relearn. Check to make
sure that the vehicle is in the ON position not
ACC. Also make sure all the connections are
secure.
E1, E2
Reading Communication Error
Make sure vehicle is ON and not ACC
Check for secure connection.
E3, E6
Writing Communication Error
Make sure vehicle is ON and not ACC
Check for secure connection.
E4
Wrong Set Error
Many Lexus vehicles can store more than one
set of TPMS ID’s in ECU. Toggle the vehicles
selected set to the MAIN set. Then retry OBDII
Relearn.
E5
Spare Tire Error
If you receive this error and you did not upload
a sensor ID for the spare, this vehicle requires a
spare. If you did upload a spare but you received
this error, then the vehicle does not store the ID
in the ECU for the spare tire.
Toyota Loop
If you receive E1, E2, E3, or E4 on Toyota / Lexus
vehicles after verifying a good connection, the
vehicle may be stuck in a loop. This happens
when the “SET” button is pressed after introduc-
ing new sensors to the vehicle. This may require
a special tool to remove the vehicle from the
loop.
