IMPORTANT INFORMATION • This product is designed to indicate the conditions of the air inside your vehicle’s tyres. It should not be considered as a device that will prevent any traffic accident, injury or death. • Tyres and valve stems must be checked before installation. It is very common for rubber valve stems to require replacement without showing signs of wear. • Never overload your vehicle. Overloading is extremely dangerous and can cause failure of tyres, suspension and driveline components.
TPMS Advantages A Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is an efficient and effective solution to many current automotive safety issues. TPMS will help minimize driving risks and reduce fuel consumption. Some benefits include: z Ensures safe driving conditions. Tyre pressures can alter ride comfort and handling response. z Minimises chances of tyre blowout. Blowouts are a growing cause of road accidents. Even if a car can recover from a blowout, the damaged tyre left behind is an even greater hazard.
Exclusive Features TYREDOG is a powerful tool for maximizing uptime and improving safety. TYREDOG sets a new standard in wireless tyre pressure monitoring systems. A leading wireless TPMS solution for the light to heavy-duty car and trucking industries, TYREDOG is continuously developing new and better TPMS designs and manufacturing technologies. TYREDOG has helped major players in the trucking industry improve safety and reduce operational costs.
Operation z Real-time: Tyre pressures are updated automatically so there is no need to push buttons to check up on your tyres (except temperature). z Graphical user interface (GUI): All information is displayed together so unlike other systems, there is no need to scroll through each wheel to view status. z Adjustable: High and low warning alarms offer great flexibility.
Tyre Pressure & Safety Information. • Please take the time to choose a suitable location so operation can be performed quickly and safely. o Be sure that the LCD monitor is firmly fixed to the windshield or dashboard using the supplied mounting hardware. o Please practice safe driving and only take the time necessary to read the information displayed on the screen. • Ensure the sensors communicate with the LCD monitor before initially fitting them to your tyres to save time and hassle.

Installation The LCD monitor can be powered by 2x AAA batteries, or your car’s power by using the supplied cigarette lighter adapter. Please follow the steps below outlining how to install batteries into the monitor and sensors and powering up the system for the first time. To install batteries, push the lever down as shown and open the cover. Insert the negative end of the battery onto to the spring side of the battery holder and push the other end in until it locks in place.
Remove the sensor cap and insert the battery like shown. The LCD monitor will beep, and the corresponding display for that sensor flash, alternating between ‘Lo.P’ and ’00.0’. Replace the battery cover and ensure it is screwed on tight. Blinking EG: Sensor RL is online, but no pressure is detected. This is indicating that the sensor is online, but not yet mounted. Repeat this process with the remaining sensors until all sensors are online.
Visually inspect your tyre’s valves for any damage or defect before fitting to ensure further damage does not occur. If you do notice that something is not right with your valves, have them checked by a tyre professional. 1. After removing the original valve caps, slide the SecureFit fixing ring over the valve stem with the flat surface towards the wheel. 2. Screw the Tyredog sensor on in a clockwise direction until you feel the valve stem come under pressure. 3.
Your Tyredog is supplied with two different monitor mounting options. Please only use the stick on base when you are sure of a permanent position. Screw the monitor arm to the base you have chosen making sure the ball joint is seated correctly in the socket. Hook the bracket into the slot at the rear of the unit and tighten the screw. Adjustments can be made by using the angle adjustment and the pivoting ball joint on the mounting base.
Operation Main button locations Mute Temperature Backlight Power switch Power Switch When the unit is switched on, the boot up screen will be displayed, and then the home screen. (When booting for the first time, all sensors will show 00.0psi values) At any other time, the most recent information will be displayed.
Main button functions Pressing the mute button will disable all audible Mute warnings. This is indicated by the speaker icon with a strike thorough it on the GUI. Temperature Pressing the temperature button will illuminate the display and show all temperatures for 5 seconds. When on battery power, pressing the backlight Backlight button will illuminate the screen for 5 seconds. Note: The screen is constantly illuminated when operating on cigarette lighter power.
Setting Warnings Holding the mute button for 6 seconds will enable Mute the settings menu. The settings menu has five sub-levels which are shown below. The Temperature and Backlight buttons are used to adjust the setting values. Press mute again to advance to the next setting. SEt Uni Pressure unit KPA – PSI – BAR – Kg/cm² SEt Uni Teperature Unit °C Celsius - °F Fahrenheit SEt Lo.P Low Pressure 0-199 in 1psi Increments SEt Hi.P High Pressure 0-199 in 1psi Increments SEt Hi.
+ System Reset To reset all stored values, turn on the monitor while holding the Temperature button. Once the power is turned on, continue holding the Temperature button and the monitor will beep once then again 1 second later to confirm that the settings have been cleared. You must continue holding the Temperature button until the second beep is heard or settings will not be cleared.
Once the system is in learning mode, you can proceed to program your new learnable sensors. Simply insert the battery into the learnable sensor to activate its code in the monitor’s memory. When the code is learnt, the monitor will beep once, and the new code will be displayed in the corresponding wheel location on the display. If a battery is inserted to a non learnable original sensor, the monitor will beep 3 times to indicate that is not a learnable code.
Warnings Low Pressure Warning If a tyre’s pressure drops below the low pressure threshold, the monitor will beep three times and back light will illuminate for four seconds. The corresponding sensor location will alternate between the current pressure and “Lo.P.” The monitor will continue to beep 3 times for every 1 PSI the pressure drops until the problem is rectified. If the pressure drops rapidly, the monitor will beep 10 times. The picture below indicates that the rear-left tyre has low pressure.
High Pressure Warning If a tyre’s pressure rises above the high pressure threshold, the monitor will beep three times and back light will illuminate for four seconds. The corresponding sensor location will alternate between the current pressure and “Hi.P.” The monitor will continue to beep 3 times for every 1 PSI the pressure rises until the problem is rectified. If the pressure rises rapidly, the monitor will beep 10 times. The picture below indicates that the rear-left tyre has high pressure.
High Temperature Warning If a tyre’s temperature rises above the high temperature threshold, the monitor will beep three times and back light will illuminate for four seconds. The corresponding sensor location will alternate between the current pressure and “Hi.t.” The monitor will continue to beep 3 times for every 1 degree the temperature rises until the problem is rectified. The picture below indicates that the rear-left tyre has high temperature.
Low Battery Warning With daily use, the battery level will decrease. Usual battery life is expected to be between 6 and 12 months for both monitor and sensor. When the monitor batteries are running low, a horizontal low battery indicator will be displayed in the middle section of the screen. (LEFT) When a sensor battery is running low, a vertical low battery indicator will be displayed in the corner of the screen respective to the sensor.
Battery Information Under normal conditions, sensor batteries will last approximately 12 months. Depending on operation conditions and frequency of use, battery life can be shorter or longer. Tyredog Sensors use battery type ‘CR1632’ (3 Volt Lithium Button Cell) CR1632 batteries are available for purchase from your nearest Tyredog reseller. Notes on batteries z Keep lithium batteries out of reach of children. z Should a battery be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor.
Troubleshooting If any sensors are failing to give a reading, or you feel an incorrect reading is being given, follow this procedure; 1. Turn the monitor off. 2. Remove batteries from all sensors. 3. Remove all sensors from valves. 4. Turn the monitor back on. 5. Insert batteries into sensors one by one. 6. Fit sensors to valves one by one. If you feel your system has a fault which cannot be rectified by this procedure, please contact your Tyredog dealer.
