6 FOBO Tire Plus Alert Messages
You will get the following alert messages below on your smartphone during
the operation of FOBO Tire Plus under different conditions. The In Car unit
will also generate different alert tones to distinguish the severity of the alert.
When you get a continuous non-stop two-tone alert, please find a safe
location to stop your car and check the alert messages on the smartphone.
A. Soft Alert – In-Car unit will beep 5 tone alert every
5 minutes for 15 minutes –
6.1 Pressure below preset limit
You will receive this soft alert when the tire pressure drops below the pre-set
lower limit. The pre-set value for the low limit is 8% below the recommended
pressure that you have set or below 160kPa, whichever that is higher. You can
change this lower limit in the advance setting down to a minimum of 160kPa
(1.6 bar/23 psi). For fuel economy and optimum tire performance, it is
recommended to maintain this 8% range so that you can keep your tires
inflated optimally. If you find the reminder is too frequent, you may want to
check your tire for any leakage. Note that drastic temperature drop may also
cause tire pressure drop. Please check your tire pressure and re-inflate during
change of seasons.
Note: The hard limit for low pressure is fixed at 160kpa (1.6bar/23psi)
and cannot be change by the user.
6.2 Pressure above preset limit
You will receive this soft alert when the tire pressure increases above pre-set
upper limit. The pre-set value for upper limit is 25% above recommended
pressure or above 595kPa (5.95bar/86psi), whichever that is lower. You can
change this upper limit in the advance settings up to a maximum of 595kPa
(5.95bar/ 86psi). For optimum tire performance and grip, you should not
overinflate your car tires. Note that the tire pressure will naturally increase as
the car tires heat up due to friction while driving. However, you should check
your tire in the event of an abnormal rise in the tire pressure.
