Tire condition is critical for the safety of riders and drivers, so getting a warning right from your vehicle
that your tires have an issue could be a life saver. The BLU TPMS will monitor both the Pressure and
Temperature of vehicle tires with external (D.I.Y.) IP Addressable O.E.M. Grade, Low Energy Bluetooth
Sensors (BLE). All of this information is then reported in the free App for iOS or Android devices,
including push notifications that tire pressure is low or temp out of parameters, no dedicated display
required.

2.1.1 Do not operate the App while driving. The company is exempt from all responsibilities that
result from driver’s carelessness and improper operation.

2.1.2 The system adopts the wireless transmission of signals. In some special environments, frequency

interference, improper operation or faulty installation may result in weaker signals or inability to receive
signals. If the construction of the windshield contains metallic material, it will affect the signal reception.
When the alarm sounds and shows abnormal data, please drive the vehicle away from the current location
(there may be signal interference in the surroundings) or drive the vehicle to a tire shop to be checked.

2.1.3 If the TPMS sensor is low on battery (if abnormal conditions exist continuously, the battery may
make the TPMS sensors continuously emit signals to warn the driver, so the battery life will be shorter
than expected), please go as soon as possible to a specified service station to confirm whether the TPMS
sensor needs to be replaced.

2.1.4 Temporary resealing or re-inflation of product injected through the valve hole may adversely affect
the operation of the sensor. The company is exempt from all responsibilities. Furthermore, do not place
the TPMS sensor in contact with any chemicals. They might damage the sensor and prevent it from
functioning properly.

2.1.5 Please close any other Apps or web pages which are not in use when using the BLE App. Data
receiving status of the App may be affected by the system load of the smart phone.
