Inflating with Air Only

If you have a Tesla tire repair kit, follow these steps
to inflate a tire with air:
1. Detach the power supply connector from the
rear of the compressor and plug it into the 12V
power socket located in Model S on the front of
center console.
2.
Release the black air hose from the
compressor.
3.
Attach the air hose to the valve and press the
lever down to secure it in place.
4. Ensure the compressor is lying on a level
surface with the pressure gauge facing to the
side where you can read it.
5. To add air, turn on the compressor and inflate
until the desired pressure is reached.
6. To release air, turn off the compressor, then
press and hold the red button until the desired
pressure is reached.
Note: For your convenience, the tire repair kit
includes a selection of adapters that allow you to
inflate other items. These adapters are located in a
compartment on the back of the compressor.
