Installing the Sensors on Your Tires

WARNING

The Tire Pressure Monitor System is for use with metal tire valve stems only. Installation of the Tire Pressure Sensors on non-metal tire valve stems may cause tire and/or tire valve stem damage which could result in serious personal injury or death.

NOTICE

To prevent possible damage to the sensors or vehicle, ensure each installed sensor does not interfere with the vehicle brakes, suspension components, or other installed equipment. If an installed sensor interferes with any installed equipment on the vehicle, do not operate the vehicle with the sensor installed.

NOTICE

To prevent possible tire vibration or uneven tire wear on some vehicles, it may be necessary to balance the vehicle tires after installing the sensor.

Before you install the sensors on your tires, you should set up the sensors with your zūmo® device.

  1. Remove the existing valve stem caps from your vehicle tires.
  2. On your zūmo device, select Apps > Tire Pressure to view the vehicle profile diagram.
  3. Install the sensors onto the tire valve stems by tightening them clockwise.
    NOTE: You must install each sensor onto the correct tire based on the vehicle profile diagram and the numerical stickers affixed to the sensors during the setup process.
  4. Rotate the wheels by hand to verify the sensors have adequate clearance and do not interfere with vehicle equipment.
