its rated upper limit.
• When changing the batteries, take care not to short-
circuit them.
• The tyre pressure gauge must not be exposed to extreme
temperatures, moisture, vibrations or direct sunlight for
an extended period of time.

Operation
1. Turn the gauge on using the on/off button. The display will
come on and after about 2 seconds "0.0." will appear, to
indicate that the gauge is ready for use.
2. The gauge sets automatically to the unit of measurement
that was used last. The unit of measurement can be
changed by pressing the on/off button. Each press changes
the unit in the following sequence: PSI → bar → kPa →
kg/cm² → PSI, etc.
3. Press the nozzle over the valve of
the tyre. Make sure that the nozzle
forms an airtight seal over the valve.
Listen for any air escaping. If you hear
a hissing sound, move the nozzle
a little until the air stops escaping.
4. Wait for 2 seconds until the reading
on the display has stabilized. Double-
check the unit of measurement and
take the reading.
5. The reading will be displayed for
85 seconds before the pressure
gauge shuts off automatically. If you
measure the pressure of another tyre
within 85 seconds, the new reading
will be displayed.
6. Turn the pressure gauge off by
holding in the on/off button until
the display turns off.
Battery replacement
The batteries should be changed when the display is dim.
1. Turn the battery cover anticlockwise and remove it.
2. Remove the old batteries.
3. Insert 2 new SR44/V357 batteries with their negative
terminals facing downwards and then refit the battery cover.
Note: When changing the batteries, take care not to short-
circuit them.
General advice
• It is wise to check your tyre pressure regularly. The correct
tyre pressure will help ensure optimum fuel consumption,
improve road handling and reduce tyre wear.
• Always follow the manufacturer's recommended tyre pressures
which are based on the measurement of cold tyres.
• A tyre's rated maximum pressure is often stated on its wall.
• On some models of car the recommended tyre pressures
can be found on the fuel filler cap.
Measuring the depth of tread
• Press the depth gauge button.
• The depth gauge has two fixed positions, one at 5 mm and
the other at 27 mm.
• Insert the gauge into the shallowest groove of the tread and
measure the depth.
