bar, the device will not start automatically.
3.1. Press (SET) three times, the
current pressure will be shown
on the LCD screen.
3.2 Press (+) to start manually.
4. Set programmable buttons
(P1) initial value is 15 psi /1 bar, (P2)
initial value is 30 psi /2.1 bar. The preset
pressure value can be reset by the user,
setting it here will save it for following
usage. But it reverts to the initial value
after a unit set change.
1. Press (P1) or (P2), (P1) preset value or
(P2) preset value will be shown on the
LCD screen.
2. Press (+) or (-) to choose preset
pressure value.
3. Press (SET) to conrm.

1. Press (P1) or (P2) to select default preset
pressure.
2. Press (+) or (-) to adjust target pressure.
3. Connect with tire, ensure no air leaks,
inflator will start automatically.
4. When inflation is finished, the device will
stop automatically and BEEP to remind
the user.

saving any selection.
3. When OPS function is selected the
device will inflate to target pressure plus
the OPS value first, then deflate to tire
pressure desired, for example: A final
target of 32 psi or 2.2 bar with an OPS
setting of 16 psi or 1.1 bar gives a sum of
48 psi or 3.3 bar. This sum of 48 psi or
3.3 bar is the Over Pressure Setting for
tire. The tire will inflate to the sum value
and deflate to the final target pressure.
4. During ination, the device will check
tire pressure automatically, the working
indicator will be on, left to right means
inating, right toleft means deating.
