WRONG DIAGNOSTICS OR FALSE ALERTS THAT MAY CAUSE
INCONVENIENCE.
8 Replacing Battery
The coin cell battery (CR2032) used in the FOBO Tire Plus sensors could last up to
two years based on normal operating condition. Similarly the AA battery used in
FOBO Tire Plus In-Car unit could last up to two years based on normal operating
condition. Operating in extreme cold or hot temperatures may reduce battery
operating life for both the tire sensors and the In-Car unit.
You will receive an alert on the smartphone and In-Car unit when the sensor or In-
Car unit battery levels are low. You will be alerted every time you start to drive
your car until the battery is replaced. It is advisable to change the battery once you
receive this battery alert to ensure proper performance of FOBO Tire Plus. Do not
wait until the battery is fully drained as it will cause FOBO Tire Plus to stop
working properly.
To replace the battery of sensor unit, unscrew the top cover. Be careful not to
damage the rubber gasket as it may affect water resistance of the sensor unit. Ensure
the battery (CR2032) is inserted with the “+” sign facing up, away from the PCB.
To replace battery for the In-Car unit, slide out the battery cover. Ensure the battery
(AA) is inserted in the correct orientation. It is advisable to use good quality AA
batteries (recommended Lithium or Alkaline) for longer lasting performance of In-
Car unit.
WARNING: RE-USING OLD BATTERIES OR MIXING OLD AND NEW
BATTERIES IN THE IN-CAR UNIT MAY DAMAGE THE ELECTRONICS.
