1. System Introduction
(1) TPV03 is a wireless tire pressure monitoring system with sensor/transmitter
mounted on each wheel plus a set of Rec eiver with D ispl ay pl aced in driv er's cabi n.
Highly accurate sensors collect tire pressure and temperature data then
transmitted by wireless radio to Digital Receiver.
(2) The System monitors the data of tires with LCD digital display thus driver can be
well-informed with most updating data of tires while driving. The Digital Receiver
will alert immediately with beeps, bright yellow LED and backlight of LCD while
pressure and/or temperature are/is out of factory-preset critical limits. Therefore,
the product can alert the driver to the abnormal condition of tire pressure and/ or
tire temperature, and it will reduce the possible danger caused by abnormal tire
pressure and tire temperature.
2. Safety Notices
(1) The System is designed to measure and display the active data, i.e. pressure and
temperature, in tires, and provides the alert or warning when the System detects the
pressure or/and the temperature of tires is/are out of threshold setting. The driver
shall have the responsibility to react with attentiveness to the alert or warning.
Abnormal tire pressure and temperature should be checked and they should be
recovered to the normal values ASAP to avoid danger.
(2) This product has to be properly installed and programmed by qualified personnel
according to this User Manual.
3. Applicable V ehicles
This system is suitable for all kinds of 4-wheel vehicles less than 4500 kgs (10000
pounds).
4. System Package Content
(1) Digital Receiver: 1 Unit (2) Cooling Vent Holder: 1 set ( inc. two
Fixing slices )

(2) Screw the Antenna into the Digital Receiver.
(3) Fasten the Digital Receiver with the Cooling Vent Holder onto
the Air Outlet in the front seat.
(4) Plug the DC Power Cable into the Vehicle Cigarette Lighter
Socket and Digital Receiver Power Jack.
(5) Turn on the Ve hic le Power and confirm if the LCD Display
shows 4 “??P”.
5.1.2 Replace Mounted-on-Air-Outlet Digital Receiver
(1) Disconnect Digital Receiver from Vehicle Cigarette Lighter Socket,
pay attention to the hanging way of the Cooling Vent Holder, then
take the Digital Receiver from the air outlet in the front seat carefully.
(2) Follow procedures 7.1 (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) to install a new Digital
Receiver.
5.2 Installation and Demounting of Transmitter

offer any warranty if he installs the product by himself.
5.2.1 Mounting the Tire with Transmitter on Wheel Rim
Notes:
Pair Valve Tag that has the same color as the color of text on ID Number
Label of Transmitter for the identical tire as indicated in below brackets.
(1) Prepare the Transmitter to pass through the valve hole which is
positioned on the steel, aluminum or aluminum alloy wheel rim.
(2) Pass the Transmitter through the valve hole and the rubber
circle will push up the inside of the valve.
(3) Attach the Rubber Ring B that is the spare part of Transmitter
from the outside of the wheel rim onto the valve hole.
(4) Attach the Washer that is the spare part of Transmitter from the
outside of the wheel rim onto the valve hole.
(5) Attach the Core that is the spare part of Transmitter from the
outside of the wheel rim onto the valve hole.
( => Recommendatory Torque t o at tach t he Core: 2~3.2 Kgf.cm )
(6) Attach the Nut that is the spare part of the Transmitter from the
outside of the wheel rim onto the valve hole.
( => Recommendatory Torque t o at tach t he Nut: 35~45 Kgf.cm )
(6) Install the tire with the standard installation equipment, and
installation procedures could be proceeded by the technicians
from the purchasing place or the authorized installation ort.
(7) Install the external antenna into the transmitter valve as the
following pictures.
(8) Finalize the installation of the Transmitter.
5.2.2 De-Mounting Tire with Transmitter Inside
Please demount the product with standard demounting equipment, and
demounting procedures could be proceeded by the technicians from our
appointed vehicle manufacturer or garage. In addition, we would like to suggest
general consumer should cooperate with the seller or the responsible people
from authorized g ar ag e, if he wants to de mo unt the product by him s elf, and it is a
must that he has gotten the professio nal trai ning in adv ance. If gene ral consu mer

11. Things to Notice
11.1 Temperature Compensated Pressure Readings
(a) When a tire heats up, caused by long duration of driving or braking, the air
pressure inside the ti re can also be expected to increase, e.g. tir e t emperature
increases 20℃ to 30℃ may lead to 3psi to 6psi pressure increment.
11.2 Never use chemical material to clean Digital Receiver.
11.3 Never take Digital Receiver apart for repair! Whenever there is problem, please
contacts dealer for repair or replacement.
11.4 Ensure Digital Receiver w/ Cooling Vent Holder is firmly adhered to the air outlet.
11.5 Check connections of DC Power Cable at both ends should no display on LCD
panel.
11.6 After the vehicle starts to move, the tire pressure and temperature couldn’t be
received on the LCD display of the Digital Receiver, please confirm if the Antenna
is loosed; then, please screw Antenna tightly to Digital Receiver.
11.7 Be sure to keep record of the T r ans mitter ID n umber for each o f the c orr espondi ng
four tires on the last p a ge. Tire Rotation Table“ (in this user manual ). Because nex t
time if the original Transmitter is replaced by a new one, inputting the original
Transmitter ID number to the new one should be a must.
