1. Product Introduction
Bluetooth Low Energy Tire Pressure Monitoring System Retrofit Kit (hereinafter
referred to as BLE TPMS), driver could get the real-time tire pressure and temperature
through smart phone in driving by using this kit. When the system detects the abnormal
status, it will alarm to driver actively, and show the abnormal data and its tire location on
BLE TPMS APP (hereinafter referred to as APP).
BLE TPMS includes four sensors, it could be connected wirelessly with your smart
phone by Bluetooth technology. The BLE TPMS sensor could detect the tire data and
transmit it to the connected smart phone, it shows the tire data of corresponding tire on
BLE TPMS APP and driver could access the data in real time.
2. Notice

2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a

particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for
satisfying RF exposure compliance. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
2.2 Product Warning
2.2.1 Do not operate APP while driving, the company is exempt from all
consequences because of driver’s careless and improper operation.
2.2.2 The system adopts the wireless transmission of signals. In some special
environment, frequency interference or wrong operation or wrong installation may
cause signal weaker or no signal. If the insulation adhesive sticker of the windshield
contains metal material, it will affect signal reception. When it alarms sound and
shows abnormal data, please drive the vehicle away from the current location
(there may be signal interference in the neighborhood) or drive the vehicle to a tire
shop to check.
2.2.3 The battery status of the TPMS sensor is low (abnormal condition exists, the battery
may make the TPMS sensors continuously emit signals to warn the driver, so that
battery life is shorter than expected life), please go as soon as possible to the
specified service station to confirm whether the TPMS sensor need to be replaced.
2.2.4 Please change the battery while battery power is low, and change the sensor while
low sensor battery warning is alarmed, it may cause the TPMS not working
normally. You will take all risks and responsibilities for this!
2.2.5 Temporary resealing or re-inflation product injected through valve hole may
adversely affect the operation of the sensor. The company is exempt from all
consequences
2.2.6 Do not place the TPMS sensor in contact with chemicals, it would cause sensor
damaged and cannot function properly.
2.2.7 Please close the other APPs or web pages which are not in use when using BLE
APP, data receiving condition on APP will probably be affected by the system
loading of the smart phone.

5.2 Installation Step
(Fig 1) Loosen the tire. Fix both sides of the tire and press, and make it bulge.
(Fig 2) Remove the tire. The valve faces the mounting arm in the one o’clock direction,
remove the tire.
(Fig 3) Remove the sensor. Loosen the fixing screw, allow the sensor separate from the
valve, and release the nut to take it apart from the valve.
(Fig 4) Install the sensor and valve. Insert the valve through the rim hole, fix the screw to
secure the valve and sensor by 2 Nm in torque, attach the sensor body to the inner
surface of the rim by adjusting the angle of the sensor body.
(Fig 5) Install valve to the rim hole. Guide the washer into the valve, and fix the nut by 4
Nm in torque, then tighten the cap.
(Fig 6) Mount the tire. Grip the rim edge, and the valve is opposite to the mounting arm,
avoid hitting the sensor during arm operation.
After installation, please download APP to your smart phone, and proceed all settings.
(Please check the 7.1 Initial Setting)
