Tyres

Add Bluetooth tyre pressure sensors and a Tyres tab appears on the Cab dashboard. It lays every wheel out on a top-down view of the van, so you can see all your tyres at a glance before you set off. The sensors that work are listed in Supported devices, and they work on every tier.

Adding the sensors

The sensors are found like any other Bluetooth device: scan for devices in Settings, Devices, and add each one.

Telling Sensa which wheel is which

No tyre sensor says which wheel it is screwed onto, so you tell Sensa once. Under the van on the Tyres tab is a Sensors list with a dropdown beside each sensor. Pick its wheel: front and rear, left and right, the inner rear wheels on a twin-wheel axle, the Spare, a trailer's wheels, or a motorcycle's. The sensor moves to that wheel straight away.

A sensor left on Not set is still listed, but has no place on the van until you choose one.

Reading a tyre

Each wheel shows its pressure, its temperature if the sensor reports one, a warning if the sensor's battery is running low, and how long ago it last reported.

A quiet sensor is not a fault. Most sensors sleep while the van is parked to save their battery, so a tile keeps its last reading and tells you how old it is. The readings come back once you are moving.

Pressure is shown in bar unless you have chosen otherwise, and temperature follows the unit you use everywhere else.

Being warned

The Tyre pressure instinct raises an alarm when a tyre goes below your minimum or above your maximum, naming the wheel. It is switched on as soon as you add a sensor. Set the range to suit your tyres on the Instincts tab.
