3. CAUTIONS

The tire pressure values displayed on the instrument cluster are sent from the wheel modules after

the vehicle is driven for a period of time. Therefore, they are not displayed at initial start (more than

20 minutes have elapsed after ignition off). It can be displayed after 10 minutes of driving at speed of

20 km/h or higher.

-

The TPMS uses a radio frequency and a high frequency band between the wheel module and the

TPMS ECU for communication.

Therefore, if the vehicle is equipped with the electronic equipment such as mobile camera monitor

or the vehicle is passing through the area with a strong electromagnetic field, the system may not

operate normally.

For the vehicle equipped with the TPMS, the TPMS warning lamp on the instrument cluster comes

on and pressure values on the EL display is displayed as bars (--) after driving for a certain period of

time if a newly installed tire is not equipped with the wheel module.

If the vehicle is equipped with the TPMS, all wheels are equipped with the wheel modules. In this

case, the wheel module may be interfered with the wheel rim depending on the mounting surface

type of the rim. Therefore, always use the SYMC genuine wheel and wheel module for the vehicle.

-

Clean the wheel mounting surface and inner side of the wheel thoroughly when replacing the tires.

However, never inject the commercial anti-flat fluid or similar substance. It may cause a critical error

to the wheel module.

2. LAYOUT

1. OVERVIEW

The TPMS is used to reduce the accident rate, enhance driving stability and avoid an unnecessary fuel

consumption and tire wear by monitoring the tire pressure and temperature to inform the driver of tire

pressure information and its status through the instrument cluster. The wheel module fitted in the tire

transmits the internal data for the tire to the TPMS ECU periodically through the wireless transmission.

The TPMS ECU can detect the positions of the wheel modules fitted to each wheel automatically and

sends the signal on tire condition through the CAN line to the instrument cluster so that the driver can

identify the wheel module in question.
