General Information
Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) - If Fitted
Function
Tyre pressure sensors are fitted to the front
and rear wheels. These sensors measure the
air pressure inside the tyre and transmit
pressure data to the instruments. These
sensors will not transmit the data until the
motorcycle is travelling at a speed greater
than 12 mph (20 km/h). Two dashes will be
visible in the display area until the tyre
pressure signal is received.
An adhesive label will be fitted to the wheel
rim to indicate the position of the tyre
pressure sensor, which is near the valve.
For motorcycles without the tyre
pressure monitoring system fitted:
The
tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an
accessory fitted item and must be fitted by
your authorised Triumph dealer. The TPMS
display on the instruments will only be
activated when the system has been fitted.
TPMS Sensor ID Number
An ID number for each tyre pressure sensor
is printed on a label which is on the sensor.
This number may be required by the dealer
for service or diagnostics.
If the TPMS has been fitted at the factory,
labels identifying the front and rear TPMS
sensor ID numbers will be affixed to the
spaces below.
If the TPMS is being fitted to the motorcycle
as an accessory, ensure that the dealer
records the front and rear TPMS sensor ID
numbers in the spaces provided.
Warning
The daily check of tyre pressures must not
be excluded because of the fitment of the
TPMS. Check the tyre pressure when the
tyres are cold and using an accurate tyre
pressure gauge (see page
104 ).
Use of the TPMS system to set inflation
pressures may lead to incorrect tyre
pressures leading to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
