OVERVIEW

ATTENTION! READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
FAILURE TO FOLLOW WARNING INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN FIRE, PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

HOT

• DO NOT HOLD IN HAND WHILE OPERATING
• PLACE INFLATOR ON A HARD, CLEAN SURFACE.

1. DO NOT run vehicle while inflator is operating. You may need to be in "accessory" or "on" position. Please make sure emergency brake is set and car is in park.
2. Always ensure the valve connector is fully seated to depress the core of the valve stem for proper inflation.
3. DO NOT use inflator continuously for more than 10 minutes. Allow unit to cool approximately 25 minutes between uses. Do not leave inflator unattended.
4. ALWAYS use a pressure gauge to check tire pressure. DO NOT overinflate.
5. Soft inflatables (i.e. rafts, balls, etc.) may not have recommended pressure markings. Be careful not to inflate items beyond their capacity.
6. While operating, never block the inflator input or output.
7. Keep inflator out of reach of children.
8. For use with 12 volt DC power outlets rated 15 amps or higher. Do not use with older 8 amp cigarette lighter receptacles.

INFLATE TIRES

1. Screw valve connector onto tire's valve stem.
2. Plug power cord into 12 volt accessory power outlet.
3. Set target pressure value
4. Press on/off switch.
5. The inflator will stop at the pre-set value.
6. Press on/off switch again.
   *NOTE: Correct tire pressure can be found in vehicle owner's manual or on driver's side door jamb.

DIGITAL GAUGE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Hold the "+" or "–" button for approximately 5 seconds until the display flashes. Set the required pressure using the "+" or "–" buttons, then wait 2–3 seconds. The display will show the pressure value to which the tire will be inflated.
2. Push the ON/OFF button for the inflator to start. When the pressure gauge reaches the pre-set value, the inflator will automatically switch off.
3. The ON/OFF button can be used to override the present pressure value if required.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Inflator does not turn ON

1. Check the power plug and push it firmly into the receptacle, twist back and forth.
2. Check receptacle and plug terminals for dirt or debris. (Use a non-conductive probe, not fingers or metal).
3. Check vehicle power outlet fuse. It should be 15 amps minimum.
4. Check the fuse. It may have blown: 12V fuse is located in the plug adaptor: unscrew the tip, remove fuse, and inspect. If necessary, replace fuse with 15A 250V 5mm x 20mm.
   

Inflator runs but does not inflate

1. Be sure the air hose valve connector is fully secured on the tire valve.
2. Check tire for leaks, and check hose for breaks and leaks at fittings and check valve core for damage.

Inflator runs slowly

1. The inflator may have overheated from excessive use. Shut it off and allow it to cool for 25 minutes.
2. The voltage may be too low. Check the condition of your vehicle's battery.
   NOTE: If tire is totally deflated, it is possible that the tire could separate from the rim allowing air to leak out when trying to inflate. In the event this occurs, you will have to jack up the tire prior to inflation.
