SMARTIRE SYSTEMS INC.
Operation
HOW IT WORKS
The system operates continuously, transmitting air pressure and temperature data,
• At approximately 5 minute intervals when the vehicle is moving faster than 6 mph
(10 kph), unless pressure changes, then data is transmitted within 7 seconds.
• Every 20 minutes when the vehicle is parked and pressure drops to 18 psi
(1.25 bar) or lower.
After the Receiver is turned on, the lights
flash red, green, then amber, waiting for
Transmitter data.
In Motion: When transmissions are
received amber tire lights turn off one at
a time and the system light turns green.
No data received
(amber lights flashing)
All data received
(system light green, all others off)
A Low Pressure Alert (factory default
22 psi or 1.53 bar), is identified by an
audible alarm and a red illuminated light
for the affected tire.
Parked: If the vehicle is parked, pressure
is measured every 20 minutes and data
transmitted if the pressure drops to 18 psi
(1.25 bar) or lower. If the Receiver is on, it
indicates this with a flashing red illuminated
light for the affected tire.
If your Receiver stays powered on when
the vehicle is parked, all the lights will
revert to amber within 40 minutes, except
the system light which remains green.
A Low Pressure Warning (factory default
18 psi or 1.25 bar), is identified by a
repeated audible alert and a flashing red
light, repeated every minute for the affected
tire. This continues until tire condition is
corrected after which the light turns off.
