The display unit provides additional features when correctly connected to a previously installed ‘Smartyre’ system. The display unit connects directly to the front of the basic ‘Smartyre’ receiver and is powered from the vehicle circuits. The display will be fully illuminated during use but will go into ‘Energy Saver’ mode when no activity is detected.
