Setup
1. Charging the Device
- Before first use, fully charge the air compressor using the provided Type-C USB charging cable.
- Connect the Type-C end of the cable to the charging port on the device and the USB-A end to a compatible power adapter (not included) or USB port.
- The battery display on the LCD screen will indicate charging status. Ensure the device is fully charged for optimal performance.
2. Attaching the Air Tube and Nozzle
- Screw the air tube securely onto the air outlet port of the compressor.
- Select the appropriate nozzle adapter for the item you wish to inflate (e.g., Presta to Schrader adapter for certain bike valves, needle valve for balls, or standard air nozzle cones for car/motorcycle tires).
- Attach the selected nozzle adapter to the free end of the air tube.
Operating Instructions
1. Powering On/Off
- To Power On: Long press the power button (usually located in the center of the control panel) for 3 seconds. The LCD screen will illuminate.
- To Power Off: Long press the power button again for 3 seconds. The device will also automatically shut off after a period of inactivity.
2. Understanding the Digital Display
Description for non-visual users: The image highlights the features of the air compressor's digital display. It shows icons for 4 preset modes (car, motorcycle, bike, ball), a battery level indicator, a real-time pressure value, and options for 4 pressure measurement units (PSI, BAR, KPA, Kg/cm²). The display is designed for clear visibility even in sunlight.
- The LCD screen displays real-time pressure, preset pressure, battery level, and selected mode.
- You can switch between pressure units (PSI, BAR, KPA, Kg/cm²) using the unit selection button (refer to your device's specific button layout).
3. Selecting Preset Modes
The compressor features 4+N smart preset modes for common inflation tasks:
- Car Mode: Typically 25-45 PSI
- Motorcycle Mode: Typically 26-43 PSI
- Bike Mode: Typically 30-45 PSI
- Ball Mode: Typically 4-16 PSI
- Customized Mode: Allows manual setting of pressure from 3-150 PSI.
Use the mode selection button (often indicated by an icon like a car, motorcycle, bike, or ball) to cycle through these modes. Once a mode is selected, the default pressure for that item will be displayed.
Description for non-visual users: The image displays the five smart preset inflation modes available on the device. These include Car (recommended pressure 25-45 PSI), Motorcycle (26-43 PSI), Bike (30-45 PSI), Customized (allowing a range of 3-150 PSI), and Ball (4-16 PSI). Each mode is represented by an icon and its typical pressure range.
4. Adjusting Preset Pressure
- After selecting a mode, use the '+' and '-' buttons to adjust the target pressure to your desired value.
- The device will automatically save your custom setting for the 'Customized' mode.
5. Inflation Process
Description for non-visual users: The image provides a four-step visual guide for inflating a tire. Step 1 shows connecting the air hose to the tire valve. Step 2 illustrates long-pressing the power button for 3 seconds to turn on the device. Step 3 depicts selecting an inflation mode and adjusting the pressure if necessary. Step 4 shows setting the desired tire pressure and pressing the power button to begin inflation, noting that the device will automatically stop once the preset pressure is reached.
- Connect: Securely connect the air tube with the appropriate nozzle to the valve stem of the item you wish to inflate.
- Power On: Long press the power button for 3 seconds to turn on the compressor.
- Select Mode & Adjust: Choose the desired preset mode (Car, Motorcycle, Bike, Ball, or Customized) and adjust the target pressure using the '+' and '-' buttons.
- Start Inflation: Press the power button briefly to start the inflation. The compressor will automatically stop once the preset pressure is reached.
- Disconnect: Carefully disconnect the air tube from the valve stem. A small amount of air may escape, which is normal.
6. LED Light Modes
The compressor is equipped with a 3-mode LED light for convenience and safety:
- Lighting Mode: Provides illumination for working in low-light conditions.
- Alarm Light Mode: Flashing red and blue lights for warning or signaling.
- SOS Light Mode: Flashes SOS signal in emergencies.
Press the light button (usually indicated by a light bulb icon) to cycle through these modes.
Description for non-visual users: The image demonstrates the three LED light modes of the air compressor. It shows the device emitting a steady white light for general illumination (Lighting Mode), flashing red and blue lights for an alert (Alarm Light Mode), and a distinct SOS pattern for emergency signaling (SOS Light Mode).
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the compressor with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the device is off and disconnected from any power source before cleaning.
- Storage: Store the air compressor and its accessories in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep out of reach of children.
- Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Recharge the device periodically if it's not used for extended periods (e.g., every 3-6 months).
- Air Tube and Nozzles: Inspect the air tube and nozzles regularly for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Replace if necessary to ensure proper sealing and efficient inflation.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device does not turn on | Low battery; Device not properly powered on | Charge the device fully; Long press the power button for 3 seconds |
| Compressor runs but no air inflates | Air tube or nozzle not securely connected; Blockage in air path | Ensure all connections are tight; Check for obstructions in the air tube or nozzle |
| Inaccurate pressure reading | Sensor calibration issue; Loose connection | Ensure the air tube is tightly connected; If problem persists, contact support |
| Device stops prematurely | Preset pressure reached; Overheating protection activated | This is normal if target pressure is met; Allow device to cool down if it feels hot |
| Slow inflation | Low battery; Incorrect nozzle used; Large volume item | Ensure battery is fully charged; Use the correct nozzle for optimal airflow; Inflation time varies by item size |
User Tips
- Check Pressure Regularly: For vehicles, check tire pressure at least once a month and before long trips.
- Avoid Over-inflation: Always refer to the recommended pressure levels for your tires or sports equipment to prevent damage or safety hazards.
- Pre-charge for Trips: Ensure your air compressor is fully charged before embarking on a journey, especially if you anticipate needing it.
- Use Correct Nozzle: Using the appropriate nozzle adapter ensures an efficient and secure connection, preventing air leaks and speeding up inflation.
- Monitor Battery: Keep an eye on the battery indicator during use, especially for larger inflation tasks, to avoid interruptions.
- Cool Down: If inflating multiple items or large tires, allow the compressor to cool down between uses to prevent overheating.
