General Information

Sensor Batteries

When the battery voltage in a pressure
sensor is low, 'lo bAtt' will be displayed for
eight seconds and the TPMS symbol will
indicate which wheel sensor has the low
battery voltage. If the batteries are completely
flat, only dashes will be visible in the display
screen, the red TPMS warning light will be
on and the TPMS symbol will flash
continuously. Contact your
Triumph dealer to have the sensor replaced
and the new serial number recorded in the
spaces provided on page 27.

Tire Pressures

The tire pressures shown on your instrument
panel indicate the actual tire pressure at the
time of selecting the display. This may differ
from the inflation pressure set when the tires
are cold because tires become warmer
during riding, causing the air in the tire to
expand and the inflation pressure to increase.
The cold inflation pressures specified by
authorized Triumph take account of this.
Owners must only adjust tire pressures when
the tires are cold using an accurate tire
pressure gauge (see page 112), and must not
use the tire pressure display on the
instruments.

The tire pressure monitoring system is not
to be used as a tire pressure gauge when
adjusting the tire pressures. For correct tire
pressures, always check the tire pressures

when the tires are cold and using an

Use of the TPMS system to set inflation
pressures may lead to incorrect tire
pressures leading to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.

Replacement Tires

When replacing tires, always have an
authorized Triumph dealer fit your tires and
ensure they are aware that tire pressure
sensors are installed to the wheels (see
page 114).
