Set TPMS units, alarms and sensor modes on a CHIGEE Display

Choose PSI or bar, configure tire pressure alarms and understand TPMS data sources and on-screen indicators.

The CHIGEE tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) lets you choose pressure and temperature units, configure tire pressure alarms and monitor your motorcycle’s tire data.

Unit settings: PSI and bar

The CHIGEE Display supports both PSI and bar for tire pressure, plus adjustable temperature units.

You can switch between them in two ways:

  • Path 1: Go to Settings > Features > TPMS, then select your preferred tire pressure (PSI / bar) and temperature units.

  • Path 2: On the CHIGEE Display home screen, tap the tire pressure value to quickly toggle between unit systems.

You can choose the format that suits your region or riding preferences.


Set tire pressure alarms

The CHIGEE Display lets you set individual pressure thresholds for the front and rear tires, helping you maintain optimal safety under different riding conditions.

Recommended thresholds

Refer to your motorcycle’s user manual for specific pressure values. As a general guideline:

  • Set the high-pressure alarm (HPA) at 20–25% above your normal tire pressure.

  • Set the low-pressure alarm (LPA) at 10% below your normal tire pressure.

These settings help avoid false alarms while providing reliable warnings when tire pressure deviates from safe limits.


TPMS data sources

The CHIGEE Display can read tire pressure data from two different sources:

  • CHIGEE TPMS: Data provided by CHIGEE's TPMS sensors.

  • NAV: Data retrieved directly from your BMW motorcycle’s built-in tire pressure sensors. Your CHIGEE Display must be powered by the BMW navigation mount, and your BMW motorcycle must have built-in TPMS.

You can choose which data source to use depending on your setup.


Key indicators on the TPMS interface

  • Sensor: Indicates whether the TPMS sensors are paired and transmitting data.

  • LPA value: Low-pressure alarm, triggered when pressure falls below this value.

  • HPA value: High-pressure alarm, triggered when pressure exceeds this value.

  • F / R: Front and rear tire readings.

  • Unit: The pressure measurement unit, PSI or bar.


System limitations and alerts

The CHIGEE TPMS display cannot be completely disabled on the instrument panel.

However, if your BMW already has built-in TPMS, you can switch the data source to NAV mode to display the motorcycle’s native tire pressure information instead.

When tire pressure is too high or too low, the CHIGEE Display automatically triggers a sound and visual alert.

To minimize unnecessary alarms, ensure your threshold values are properly adjusted as described above.
