3. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES What to expect Unless you have used this type of TPMS before, you will probably be unaware of what happens to your vehicles’ tyres whilst driving. The tyres’ pressure and temperature will naturally increase whilst you are driving your vehicle. This is completely normal and is taken into account when the tyres are designed and manufactured.
4.2 Charging the monitor The solar panel on the monitor will keep the internal battery charged as long as there is sufficient sunlight available. Should the battery charge level become low, recharge with the supplied DC charger (approximately 2.5 hours of charge will fill the battery).
5. SENSOR INSTALLATION The sensors are pre-registered to the monitor and labelled with the appropriate tyre position. LF, LR, RF, RR, for 4 tyres or LF, LR1, LR2, RF, RR1, RR2 for 6 tyres. Note: Install the sensors to the appropriate tyres. LR2 LR1 RR1 RR2 Ensure the monitor is turned on before installing the sensors so that the monitor can receive up...

12. MANAGING TYRE PRESSURES The recommended tyre pressures are given in the vehicle handbook and are designed to give the best balance between comfort, road-holding and fuel economy for a given vehicle. The side-wall of the tyre is embossed with the maximum pressure for the tyre. This is NOT the recommended service pressure.
