Precautions
1. For alve stem used on Motorcycle, please use lock-fixed type, not in
rubber made.
2. Please make sure the LCD display can receive signals from two tire
pressure sensors.
3. Tyredog TPMS has unique anti-theft tool to prevent sensor being
stolen. You can decide whether install or not.
4. Please double confirm if sensors are fitted tightly. If necessary,
please spreading detergent water on the valve stem to check any air
leakage.
5. If tire pressure is getting down or dropping quickly, please stop car
immediately to find out if tire is deflated or another other problem.
6. The monitor will automatically make connections in whole system
when car starts to run. It is normal that some tire pressure figures
might not be updated immediately due to there is no change of tire
pressure in those tires at all.
7. Tyredog TPMS has mechanism to avoid interfering /being interfered
with other signals.
8. Many environmental factors cause tire temperature rise and down as
well. For example, hot weather or warm tire will lead rising tire
pressure.
9. It is natural that tire pressure will decrease by days but not caused
by the installation of tire pressure monitoring system. Tyredog TPMS
can response with its real figure of pressure.
10.If monitor gets wet accidentally by rain, etc., please don’t power on
monitor until it is dried.

11.If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit that are
not covered in this manual, please consult your nearest Tyredog
dealer.
The Main Purpose
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is an efficient and
effective solution to many of current motorcycle safety problems.
TPMS will help prevent driving on deflated tires and reduce fuel
consumption. There are benefits here:
z Improves ride performance and handling
Tire pressure leads to driving condition a lot.
z Decreases chance of tire blowout
It is very critical to keep tire pressure in a good condition when riding,
especially, when motorcycle is running over two –wheel to make
balance.
z Reduces labour of tire pressure inspections
The system can give a very clear picture of tire pressure status
among two tires for rider.
z Not adds much maintenance cost
Advanced designs to give the best convenience to all drivers by
wireless/ cordless design, external sensors, etc.
z Less downtime
Real time monitoring gives you highly control of your tire pressure
and temperature and avoid unexpected accidents caused from
abnormal tire pressure and temperature.
z Reduces fuel expense
4
Fuel efficiency is reduced by one percent for every 3 PSI of under
inflation. It is for sure that tire pressure is also one of important
factors to save gas consumption.
z Extends tire life
Research finds that running tires 20% under –inflation can reduce
tire life by up to 50%. It is crucial to keep tire pressure at a right level
(right tire pressure figures for each tire normally suggested by your
car manufacturer)
z Increases return on investment
Concludes advantages mentioned above, by taking care of tire
pressure with simple Tire Pressure Monitor System, gains are much
more than what you expect.

3. Monitor display color is getting dark.
When car temperature is over 80 , it is natural that LCD panel will к
be getting dark. When car temperature is back to normal, LCD panel
will be normal again.
4. When temperature is below -20к, the response time of CD monitor
could be slower.
5. ‘Learning mode’ can only accept ‘learnable sensor’ but not standard
sensor.
Additional Information
Under normal conditions, sensor batteries will last approximately 1~2
years. LCD monitor will last around 6 months. (The service life may be
shorter, depending on the conditions of use.) When the battery becomes
weak, the power low indicator will appear on the screen. Replace the
battery with a new CR1632 lithium battery for sensor or with AAA 1.5
battery for LCD monitor.
Notes on battery
