CAN THE MONITOR BE USED INDEPENDENTLY ON FRONT OR TOW
VEHICLE?
Yes see Drop and Hook Instruction PAGE 19.
CAN I STORE MY VEHICLE LONG TERM WITH THE MONITOR ON?
The monitor draws 60mA to 125 mA of power when it is under power and fully functional. The
monitor could drain vehicle's battery over an extended period of time. Hooking the monitor up to
enable the sleep mode will drastically reduce the power consumption over a long period. If storing
for over 3 months, you might consider unplugging the monitor and removing the sensors for
storage. (TIP: Clean egg cartons or plastic bags work well for storing the sensors.) Each Sensor
has it's own serial number laser etched into the cover. Be sure to enter these ID numbers in the
diagram on page 5 so sensors can be replaced on the same tire location when re-installing them,
eliminating the need for reprogramming. If a low-pressure alert is given while in storage, the
sensor will alert until the pressure is corrected and could dramatically affect the battery life of the
sensors. Sensor will shut down and stop transmitting when less than 5 lbs of air pressure are
present. When putting system back on, power monitor first, and then screw sensors onto their
original wheel locations. Pressure reading will display within a few minutes on the monitor. Your
360RV system will now be active.
HOW DO I CHECK THE TIRE PRESSURES?
The pressures are updated to the 360RV Monitor every 6 minutes under normal circumstances.
With the monitor in
Normal Mode
, press the SET button and then press the arrow buttons in
order to select a tire's current pressure to display. When you have finished your inspection simply
press the set button again to return the monitor to the normal mode.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I REMOVE THE SENSORS TO INFLATE OR CHECK THE
PRESSURE IN MY TIRES?
It is recommended that tire pressures be checked regularly using a quality pressure gauge when
the tires are at ambient temperatures. Remove the sensor, check pressure, and inflate if
necessary. When you return the sensor to the valve stem, the sensor will begin to read the
current pressure and return to its normal operation.
With the 360RV system you can air up a low tire with the tire being warm and replace the
sensor without worrying about the sensor giving a false alarm, like some of the other
systems available on the market.
