Abstract
Identification information for identifying a tire, a tire inner pressure and a tire inner temperature are sent to a tire checking device from a first electronic device provided within a tire and measured results are shown on a display. Groove depth data from a depth meter are also received by the tire checking device and shown on the display. The tire checking device stores received management information such as a tire inner pressure, a tire inner temperature, a groove depth and so on in a memory with associating them with each tire. The stored management information is extracted by a control unit if required and shown on the display. Therefore, a tire inner pressure and a tire inner temperature are detected automatically and groove depth data are stored with being associated with each tire, and thereby the tire inner pressure, the tire inner temperature and the groove depth data can be displayed.
