Wheels and Tires: Service Precautions

TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM

PRECAUTION
1. IN CASE OF REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF TIRE PRESSURE WARNING VALVE AND TRANSMITTER
(a) When installing a tire, to prevent the sensor from being damaged make sure that the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter does not interfere with the tire bead.
(b) After completing the operation, remove the valve core to rapidly release air and check that the warning light is illuminated. If not, the system may be defective.
(c) When replacing the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter, replace it with the one which has the same identification paint color.
(d) If there is air leakage, tighten the nut with 3.0 N*m (31 kgf*cm, 27 in.*lbf). If the air is still leaking, replace the grommet together with the washer and nut.
(e) When installing the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter, check whether the rim, grommet, washer and nut are clean. Clean them if necessary.
2. IN CASE OF TIRE AND WHEEL REPLACEMENT OR TIRE ROTATION
(a) When replacing tires, be sure to check if the grommet of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is damaged or not. If so, replace the grommet together with the washer and nut.
(b) When tires and wheels are replaced, register the transmitter ID.
