Repeat the above step for the remaining tires (The setup order

must always be from tire #1, #2, …, to the last tire). After
successfully retraining the last tire the system exits the

Manual

Setup

mode automatically.

A simply way of retraining is: put the system to retraining

mode, follow the setup order and release air

from each tire for

20 seconds without needing to look at the display. After
working on the last tire the retraining will be completed.

¾

Refill tires to the proper air pressure.

Turning vehicle power off before finishing always cancels the

setup.

The

Auto-Setup

mode is specially developed to support our

external valve-stem mounted sensors. Using this mode to set
up internal sensors would lead to incorrect sensor assignment
to a wrong tire location. Therefore please use

Manual Setup

for the rim mounted sensor.

assignment.
