Dismounting/Mounting Procedures: Notes
CAUTION:
The tire should be dismounted from the wheel using the tire changer manufacturer's instructions. Use the following information to avoid damage during the dismounting/mounting procedures.
CAUTION:
When tires are replaced, the sensors and valves must not be detached or exchanged. Only the nickel plated valve insert needs to be replaced. DO NOT replace the valve and wheel electronics unless necessary.
NOTE:
The nickel plated valve insert must be replaced each time the tire is changed. See TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR .
NOTE:
When reusing tire pressure sensors, inspect the connection between sensor and metal valve for damage.
NOTE:
Tire pressure is also dependent on temperature of the tire. For every 18°F (10°C) increase in tire temperature, tire pressure increases about 1.5 psi (10 kPa). Tire pressure should only be adjusted when tires are cold (about the same as ambient air temperature).
NOTE:
Whenever tire pressure is adjusted, the adjusted pressure has to be stored again. If a tire was changed or relocated, the new or relocated tire(s) must be initialized. See RESET PROCEDURES .
