SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Never allow children to use this inflator.
Never leave inflator unattended while running.
Never start and leave a vehicle running in a confined or enclosed space such as a garage.
Keep the inflator dry and clean.
Never use in areas with poor ventilation.
Avoid use of product near flames, explosive materials, aerosol products or oxygen devices.
Always wear eye protection.
Do not attempt to disassemble inflator.
Do not carry the inflator by the power cord or air hose.
Air sprayer or nozzle should always be pointed away from any part of the body.
Never start a vehicle with the inflator plugged into the DC 12 Volt power socket.
Do not alter or modify the inflator.
When operating this inflator do not operate more than 10 minutes at a time. Allow it to cool down at least 10
minutes before using it again.
Operate this inflator on a 12 volt DC cigarette lighter socket or 12 volt power outlets with a minimum of 10A. Do not
use with older 8A cigarette lighter receptacles otherwise damage to vehicle's lighter socket, wiring system or vehicle’s
fuses may result.

PARTS
OPERATION FOR TIRE INFLATION
Take the 12 Volt power cable from the back storage compartment.
Make sure the Inflator Power Button is in the off position.
Start vehicle engine.
Plug inflator lighter plug into vehicle 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket.
Check manufacturer’s recommended tire pressure specifications indicated on the tire or your vehicle.
Take the air hose from the back storage compartment.
Attach the air hose nozzle to vehicle tire valve stem by threading the nozzle onto the stem clockwise until
secure. Wait about five seconds and the digital gauge will indicate the current tire pressure.
Select the desire reading pressure unit (PSI, BAR, kPa, kg/cm2) using the Unit Setting Button and with the
Pressure Setting Buttons set the desire pressure.
Push the Inflator Power Button to turn on inflator.
Once the desire pressure has been reached, the inflator will stop automatically.
Wait a few minutes as air hose and nozzle may be hot. Then, remove air hose nozzle from vehicle tire valve
stem by turning air hose nozzle counterclockwise.
Turn off vehicle.
Unplug inflator from vehicle 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket.
IMPORTANT: The pressure gauge on the inflator is for reference only and is therefore not binding for exact values.
While inflating, the gauge is a measurement of the fluctuating pressure between the tire and the high pressure hose.
To reduce the risk of over-inflation, use a reliable pressure gauge periodically during inflation before driving a vehicle
inflated with the inflator.

OPERATION FOR OTHER INFLATABLES
Take the 12 Volt power cable from the back storage compartment.
Make sure the Inflator Power Button is in the off position.
Start vehicle engine.
Plug inflator lighter plug into vehicle 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket.
Check manufacturer’s recommended pressure specifications for the inflatable.
Take the air hose from the back storage compartment.
Attach the desire adapter into the air hose nozzle. For sport balls use the Inflator Needle adapter.
Insert adapter into the inflatable. Wait about five seconds and the digital gauge will indicate current inflatable’s
pressure.
Select the desire reading pressure unit (PSI, BAR, kPa, kg/cm2) using the Unit Setting Button and with the
Pressure Setting Buttons set the desire pressure.
Push the Inflator Power Button to turn on inflator.
Once the desire pressure has been reached, the inflator will stop automatically.
Wait a few minutes as air hose and nozzle may be hot. Then, remove air hose nozzle from inflatable, remove
adapter needle from air hose nozzle by turning the adapter needle counterclockwise.
Turn off vehicle.
Unplug inflator from vehicle 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket.
IMPORTANT: Small items likes volleyballs, footballs, etc. inflate very rapidly. When inflating such items check by feel
or by a reliable measuring device to determine accurate pressure.
LED WORK LIGHT
With the power cable plugged into vehicle 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket.
Press the Work Light Button to turn on the LED light.
Pressing it again will turn off the LED light.
MAINTENACE
This compressor requires no maintenance or lubrication. If the unit gets dirty, gently clean the outer surfaces
with a soft cloth moistened with a mild solution of water and detergent.
IMPORTANT: Avoid any type of detergents or solvents, which might contain chemicals that could damage plastic
portions or painted surfaces of the compressor.
SOLUTIONS TO COMMON ISSUES
Issue: The inflator fails to run when the inflator power button is switched to on.
Solution 1: Check that the plug is fully inserted into 12 Volt cigarette lighter socket.
Solution 2: Make sure the vehicle is running. The inflator should be used with the vehicle running.
Solution 2: Check the plug inside the 12V plug and replace if needed.
Issue: 12 Volt power cable gets hot.
Solution 1: Check if the power cable is not coiled up or in a knot or damaged.
Issue: Pressure gauge appears to read incorrectly.
Solution 1: Make certain when you attach the air hose nozzle to the tire stem that the gauge is reading the current tire
pressure before turning on the inflator switch.
Solution 2: Wait 5-7 seconds for gauge to display proper pressure.
Issue: The inflator is running but the tire is not inflating.
Solution 1: Turn off inflator and check that the air hose nozzle is securely attached to the tire valve stem.
