BASIC INFORMATION
Batteries
UniTire uses two standard AAA cell batteries.
The software is optimized to be energy-efficient
for long battery life (typically more than 200
hours).
Please help us in our effort to protect the
environment:
1. Do not change the batteries before
UniTire tells you to do so.
2. Always turn in your used batteries for
recycling.
Low battery symbol
When the batteries reach 2.2 V, the low bat-
tery symbol will be shown at the bottom of the
display:
You can continue to use the UniTire until the
last of the 4 ’cells’ in the battery symbol has
disappeared.
At 1.75 V UniTire will turn off
automatically.
Pressure handle
The pressure handle is equipped with two air
valve buttons. Use one of the buttons to let out
air, or both buttons to let out more air.
Communication and power cable
The cable which connects the pressure handle
with the pressure gauge carries the power and
communication between the gauge and the
handle.
The cable is very flexible and durable, but be
careful not to cut or squeeze the cable with
sharp or heavy objects.
Display, casing and buttons
The UniTire has a custom made, 128 x 128
pixel graphical display with 4 gray tones and
adjustable contrast.
The casing is made of high quality aluminum
and the buttons of stainless steel.
To maximize the lifetime of your Unitire:
• Do not put it directly in your tool box.
• Be careful not to drop it on the ground.
• Do not put it under heavy objects.
• Do not use it in rain.
