6.1. TPMSTOOL OVERVIEW
Read and diagnose sensors.
Service Procedure Read Sensor Test
Before servicing the tires/wheels, using your TPMS TOOL, trigger each of the vehicle's sensors to
MAIN MENU
make sure they are working properly. This will eliminate the liability associated with
replacing previously damaged or defective sensors.
CHECK SENSOR
This procedure will not change the vehicle settings because the vehicle has yet to be put into learn/retraining mode. This procedure allows you to quickly identify damaged or defective sensors, because some vehicles do not report a damaged or defective sensor condition on the instrument cluster for up to 20 minutes.
Note: If the sensors do not trigger, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide.
Perform tire/wheel service. Begin by triggering the driver's left front (LF) wheel sensor. The same procedure should be followed on all wheel sensors, in a
clockwise rotation.
1 Start LF
RF 2
We recommend you trigger each wheel sensor, one final time, to make sure they are working correctly prior to releasing the vehicle to the customer.

USB Power
supply connector
When the battery is low, the “status bar” appears every 10 seconds. The display turns off when the battery loses power.
Plug the USB cable between the tool and the charger adapter, and then plug the charger adapter to an appropriate outlet. The red LED "CHARGE" light will turn on.
It’s not recommended to use the tool with low battery status as the transmission and emission may not be reliable.
Once charged, the bar graph is full and the LED "CHARGE" turns to green light.
Battery replacement
The tool must be returned to the factory for battery replacement.
Opening the tool or tampering with the seal placed on the tool will void the warranty.

2. TROUBLESHOOTING
If the TPMS TOOL is unable to trigger one or more of the sensors, please use the following troubleshooting guide:
1) The vehicle does not have a sensor even though a metal valve stem is present. Be aware of Schrader rubber style snap-in stems used on TPMS systems.
2) The sensor, module or ECU itself may be damaged or defective.
3) The sensor may be the type that periodically triggers on its own and is not designed to
respond to a triggering frequency.
4) Your TPMS TOOL may require a software upgrade.
5) Check “Auto Off” time settings for screen display.
6) Your TPMS TOOL is damaged or defective.
3. TOOL UPDATE Updating your TPMS TOOL
As new cars and sensors becomes available, it will be necessary to upgrade your tool. Please follow the steps below:

Do not use it as a power source. Unplug it before attempting to service or clean it.
About the Battery
CAUTION: This unit contains an internal Li-Po battery. The battery can burst or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, pierce or dispose of the battery or the instrument in fire or water, do not short circuit or short the contacts with a metal object.
Use a specified charger approved by the manufacturer and supplied with the device.
The tool must be returned to the factory for battery replacement.
Opening the tool or tampering with the seal placed on the tool, if broken will void the warranty.
Safety for Li-Po battery use
NEVER leave the battery unattended during the
charging process. The device must imperatively be placed on a non-flammable surface during charging (ceramic platter or metal box).
Charge the Li-Po battery ONLY with the charger provided.
If the battery begins to overheat more than 60°C (140° F), IMMEDIATELY STOP the charge. The battery should NEVER exceed 60°C (140° F) during the charging process.
If you see smoke or liquid coming out of the battery, stop the charge immediately. Disconnect the charger and place the tool in an isolated area for at least 15 minutes. DO NOT USE THE BATTERY AGAIN, but return the device to your seller.
Keep a fire extinguisher for electrical fires handy while charging the battery. In the unlikely event that the Li-Po battery ignites, DO NOT use water to extinguish the fire, take some sand or a fire extinguisher as described above.
This must neutralize the battery elements so that they are unusable. The neutralization process must be performed with very strict security fit. It is recommended that you return the tool to us, so that we can collect the out of use battery and give this to a specialized recycler.
Do not dispose of Li-Po batteries in the dustbin.
The Li-Po battery is not suitable for children under 14 years. Do not let a Li-Po battery reach of children.
To prevent leakage or other hazards, do not store batteries above 60°C (140°F). Never leave the battery inside a car (for example) where the temperature could be very high or in a place where temperatures could exceed 60°C (140°F). Store the battery in a dry place to avoid contact with liquid, whatever the type. Store the battery only on a nonflammable surface, heat resistant, non conductive and away from all flammable materials or sources. Always store the battery out of reach of children.
A Li-Po battery should be stored with a minimum charge of 30%. If you store completely discharged, it will quickly become unusable.
If you don't follow these safety precautions, you may cause serious personal injury and damage to property; you may even cause a fire!
The company disclaims any responsibility for damage sustained in case of non compliance with these safety instructions.
Using a Li-Po battery has a high risk of fires and can cause serious damage to property and persons, the user agrees to accept the risk and responsibility.
As the company cannot control the proper use of the battery by each customer (charge, discharge, storage etc.); it cannot be held responsible for damage to persons and property.
NEVER charge the battery immediately after use and while still hot. Leave it cool down to ambient temperature.
