Detach the wheels from the vehicle and pull the tyres from the rims.
Remove the existing valves.
1. Place the tyre sensor provisionally into the rim (see D 5).
2. Check the distance of the sensor to the rim and select spacers to fit. (see D 6.1, D
6.2, D 6.3 and D 6.4). Should the tyre sensor lie flat, there is no need for the spacers.
3. Insert the spacers selected into the front part of the sensor. Pay attention to the
direction of the spacers. (see D 7).
4. Re-insert the sensor and tighten it up with a torque of 5 Nm (see D 8).
5. Now push the spacers away from the valve with a small screwdriver until the sensor
is securely fixed (see D 9).
6. Mount the tyre back onto the rim.
Please note! Always start pulling on the tyre opposite the valve. Otherwise,
there is the danger that the wheel sensor may be damaged during tyre mounting
(see D 10, D 11 and D 12).
7. Fill the tyre with air or nitrogen until it has settled on the rim (see D 13).
8. Check in a water bath as to whether the valve is leakproof (see D 14).
9. Fill the tyre at an air pressure prescribed by the automotive manufacturer (see D 15).
10. Balance the tyre.
