    CAUTION:
    • Pull the air pressure sensor valve straight out of the valve hole. If the air pressure sensor valve is pulled out in the wrong direction, excessive force could be applied to the valve and damage it.
    • To prevent air leakage, install the valve so that there is no gap between the tip of the valve and wheel.
    • To prevent damaging the air pressure sensor, do not apply impact to the wheel or pressure sensor.
    NOTE:
    • Install the air pressure sensor so that it does not contact the inner side of the wheel.
    • After applying soapy water, install within 5 min.
    • Install the air pressure sensor to a clean and dry wheel with no burrs/file scratches on the valve hole.
    • Do not use an air pressure sensor that has been damaged by being dropped from a 1 meter or more height.
    • Always install the valve cap except when pumping air, bleeding air, and checking air pressure.
  6. Verify that the air pressure sensor is installed parallel to the wheel as shown in the illustration.
