Lift up the high pressure hose and screw the tyre valve connector (3) onto the tyre valve. Always
connect the 12V power plug before connecting the high pressure hose to the tyre. Check the tyre
pressure shown on the display. If the display reads 0.00 or Err then refer to the Trouble Shooting
guide. When connected correctly the gauge will display the current pressure in the tyre. If this is the
pressure as stated in your vehicle’s handbook, you can simply remove the tyre valve connector (3).
3. To start inflating press On/Off button (1).
4. You will now see the pressure increasing on the display (2). Due to the sensitive nature of the tyre
pressure measuring system, you may find that when you switch the tyre inflator off at the required
pressure the gauge may drop back slightly. If this happens, switch back on and inflate to a slightly
higher pressure. Switch off and re-check.
5. If you are inflating multiple tyres then follow the procedure stated from 3. to 4. above.
If the 12V power supply is disconnected then always reconnect the 12V power supply before
connecting the high pressure hose to the tyre valve. If there is a power interruption during the
inflation cycle, please follow the reset procedure outlined in the Trouble Shooting guide.
