INTENDED USE The 4x4 TOUGH® Tyre Pressure monitoring system is designed for passenger vehicles to provide real time tyre pressure and temperature monitoring whilst stationery (providing your ACC power is turned on and whilst driving your vehicle.
With wireless transmitting this system is suitable for most passenger cars, SUV and 4WD's.
The TPMS display unit is already paired to the included sensors. The data will automatically display once you have installed the sensors display unit and your ACC power has been turned on. It also has a handy USB port for charging your mobile devices.
The TPMS does not replace the need for regular tyre maintenance and checking tread wear.This product is intended for private vehicle use and not for commercial, trade or industrial use.

External Sensor Installation
Step 1. Unscrew the existing tyre valve caps anticlockwise and place in the supplied carry bag for safe keeping.
Step 2. Attach the hexagonal nut to the thread of the valve stem and screw clockwise to approximately half way down the valve stem.

Step 4. Install the display monitor as shown below, into the 12V DC port in your vehicle. This port is also known as a cigarette lighter socket in some older vehicles.
Step 3. Attach the sensor to the designated valve stem clockwise and screw down until it is sitting up against the hex nut.

Remove the cigarette lighter Insert the tyre pressure monitor
The monitor is energized andstarts receiving dataTurn on ACC power
Note: The sensor has a memory, and the initial reading will re�ect the pressure reading last recorded in the factory during Quality Control checking. Within 3 minutes the correct pressure readings for the current vehicle will appear in the display].You can adjust the angle of the display monitor if required by pressing the two spring loaded buttons (Fig 1) and releasing the spring loaded buttons when the desired setting is achieved.
Step 5. When satis�ed that each sensor is displaying correctly, apply soapy water to the valve stem/sensor and check for bubbles. If bubbles appear this would indicate on air leak. Remove the sensor, check for soil in the valve stem thread, re attach the sensor and proceed to check again as described above. Should the leak persist, a new valve stem may need to be �tted by a tyre shop.
The TPMS employs a Bluetooth operating system. Each sensor has been paired to the display monitor prior to shipment. Con�rm that the pairing has remained intact by observing a reading from each individual sensor

Step 6. Use the supplied spanner to tighten the hexagonal nuts on each sensor anticlockwise until they sit tight against the sensor. This process locks the sensor �rmly on the valve stem providing security to the sensor attachment.
Ensure that the sensors are �tted as per their markings to the correct tyre.FL: Front left [passenger side] tyreFR: Front right [driver side] tyreRL: Rear left [passenger side] tyreRR: Rear right [driver side] tyre

TPMS FUNCTIONS1. Switch between Tyre pressure and Tyre temperature
2. Switch between PSI unit reading to BAR unit reading
Press the set key once. This will change the display from tyre pressure to tyre temperature.When the temperature is below 0 degrees Celsius, the tyre pressure corresponding to the tyre location shows the number 10 degrees Celsius, as shown above.
Press the set key three times, this will allow you to change to display from PSI to BAR reading.

4. Tyre high temperature alarm
3. Tyre high / low pressure alarm
When the tyre pressure is higher than 3.2 Bar (46 PSI) or below 1.8 Bar (26PSI), the central warning light and corresponding tyre display �ashes, accompanied by an alarm sound. Press the set key once to cancel the alarm sound. This function tells you that the tyre needs imme-diate attention.If the display is in the temperature display interface, the alarm information will force the unit to change to the tyre pressure display interface.
When the tyre temperature is higher than 70 degrees Celsius,the central warning light and corresponding tyre display �ashes, accompanied by an alarm sound. Press the set key once to cancel the alarm sound. This function tells you that the tyre needs immediate attention.
If the display is in the pressure display interface,the alarm information will force the unit to changeto the tyre temperature display interface.

High pressure alarm Low pressure alarm
5. Sensor low alarm
6. Sensor pairing information
When the tyre sensor fails, it will show the corresponding tyre failure, and the central warning light will �ash. Check that the tyre sensor is correctly securely to the tyre. If so, the battery may need replacing, see instruction to replace battery on page 15 of this manual.
The TPMS is a Bluetooth system. In the event the original pairing system has been disturbed you will have to re-pair the display monitor to the sensors. Press the set key �ve times continuously until the display shows the pairing interface.Once this appears, press the set key once.The front left (FR) wheel sensor will appear, �ashing, enter the target/ideal tyre pressure.The unit will then automatically display the front right (FR) wheel sensor, �ashing, enter the target/ideal tyre pressure.The unit will then automatically display the rear right(RR) wheel sensor, �ashing, enter the target/ideal tyre pressure. The unit will then automatically display the rear left (RL) wheel sensor,�ashing, enter the target/ideal tyre pressure.The display will then automatically exit from the pairing.

BATTERY INFORMATION
The 4X4® TPMS sensors are battery operated.Wipe the battery with dry cloth to ensure a good contact.Batteries may explode if shorted or mistreated.Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.Do not attempt to disassemble batteries.Never dispose of batteries in �re.Dispose of used batteries immediately.
Do not ingest the battery, Chemical Burn Hazard.The TPMS sensors contain coin/button cell batteries (CR1632).If the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just 2 hours and can lead to death.Keep new and used batteries away from children.If the battery compartment fails to close securely, stop using the product and keep it away from children. If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate medical attention.
After tyres have been rotated, ensure that you reposition the tyre sensors to the corresponding tyre so the display unit provides you with an accurate reading.

Frequently Asked Questions
19
Q. Why is the initial reading on the display monitor not re�ecting the correct tyre pressure.A. The sensor has a memory and the initial reading will re�ect the reading last recorded during the QA process at the factory.Within 3 – 5 minutes the correct pressure readings for the current vehicle will appear on the display monitor. Q. When the ACC is turned on, there is no digital information on the display monitor.A. Remove the display monitor from the DC port and reinsert ensuring it is engaged fully.A.There may be a fault with the DC port in your vehicle. Plug in another appliance into the DC port to ensure that there is not a fault with the DC port.Q. The warning indicator light is �ashing and an alarm is sounding.A. This indicates there is a problem. Stop driving when safe to do so and observe the display monitor which will indicate which tyre has a problem.Q. The original pairing system has been disturbed, how do I re-pair the unit.A. Please follow step number 6 within this user manual.Q. One of the sensor displays on the monitor is showing a ‘LO’ display.A. You will need the change the battery on this sensor. Please refer to page 15 of this manual – Replacing the battery.
