System Scope of Use and Warnings The SmarTire™ System and Tire Maintenance This system is a sensing device designed to identify and display tire operating data and activate an alert or warning when pressure irregularities are detected. It is the responsibility of the driver to react promp tly and with discretion to alerts and warnings. Abnormal tire inflation pressures should be corrected at the earliest opportunity. System Installation and Usage Use of the SmarTire™ system requires that it has been properly installed and programmed by qualified personnel according to SmarTire Systems Inc. documentation. This includes the Owner’s Manual and any supplementary installation instructions included with system components. Reacting to Alerts When an alert or warning condition is detected, reduce vehicle speed to an appropriate safe level and proceed to a safe stopping location or facility where the tire can be inspected and serviced. The low pressure alert or warning indicates that the air pressure has dropped to a selected minimum.

As the owner of this state-of-the-art wireless tire pressure monitor system, you will enjoy the improved convenience and benefits of having tire pressure information automatically monitored while you are driving. The SmarTire System consists of wheel mounted sensor/transmitters inside each tire which measure contained air pressure and temperature and transmit this data to a Full Function Display within view of the driver. Having carried out the correct installation procedure (see Installation section in this manual), the SmarTire system is ready to use.

SmarTire Systems Inc. Tire Monitor System Owner’s Manual Draft 2/25/2003 Page 8 This manual is under review by SmarTire Mounting Tire with Transmitter on Wheel To avoid damaging the transmitter during tire mounting, position the wheel with the transmitter located at 7 o’clock in relation to the mount head at 12 o’clock. Set the lubricated tire on the wheel with its traction point 3 in. before the transmitter. Use the mount head to guide the rest of the bottom bead over the flange and onto the rim. With the bottom bead in place, you will be able to position the wheel with the transmitter at 7 o’clock for most tires. Depress the bead into the drop centre so that the traction point is 3 in. before the transmitter. Some stiff side wall tires (such as “run-flats” require setting the transmitter between 3 o’clock and 6 o’clock. Start the top bead in front of the mount head assisting with the mounting bar to prevent slippage. Inflate the tire to seat the bead, deflate completely and then inflate the tire to manufacturer’s recommended cold inflation pressure. 12 7 Transmitter Traction point 3
