TPMS Tire Pressure Management System
Operation of TPMS, Electronic Tire Pressure Sensor
◆
TPMS consists of 2 wireless Tire Pressure Sensors (1 each on respective
nozzle of front and rear tire) and a controller. The sensor detects the current tire
pressure and sends the signal to Controller by wireless transmission. The
Controller then sends the signal to Dashboard, informing the rider of pressure
condition with the displayed indicator.
NOTICE

pressure symbol on the left side of Dashboard will light up; if this symbol then
goes out automatically, the tire pressure is normal (as shown in the Figure).
2. When KEYLESS Main Switch is set ON, the Tire Pressure Sensor related
pressure symbol on the left side of Dashboard will light up; if this symbol stays on
constantly, the tire pressure is not normal (as shown in the Figure).
