2. Accessing the Air Hose: Unclip the air hose from its storage grooves around the unit.
3. Selecting Adapters: If inflating items other than standard Schrader valve tires (e.g., sports balls, inflatables), locate the appropriate adapter stored on the unit and attach it to the air hose nozzle.

6. Operating Instructions

1. Power On: Press the power button (usually marked with a power symbol) to turn on the inflator. The digital display will illuminate.
2. Set Target Pressure: Use the '+' and '-' buttons on the digital display to set your desired PSI. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual or the tire's sidewall for recommended pressure.
3. Connect to Valve: Securely attach the air hose nozzle to the tire's valve stem. Ensure a tight seal to prevent air leakage.
4. Start Inflation: Press the inflation button (often the same as the power button or a separate start button) to begin inflating. The inflator will automatically shut off once the preset pressure is reached.
5. Disconnect: Once inflation is complete and the unit has stopped, quickly disconnect the air hose from the valve stem.
6. Using the LED Light: To activate the integrated LED work light, press and hold the power button for a few seconds. Repeat to turn off.

Operational Overview

7. Maintenance

• Battery Care: To maintain battery health, recharge the unit every 3-4 months, even if not in use. Avoid completely draining the battery for extended periods.
• Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the inflator with a damp cloth. Do not submerge the unit in water or use harsh chemicals.
• Storage: Store the inflator in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the air hose and adapters are properly stowed to prevent damage.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Slime Cordless Tire Inflator, consider the following:

• Unit Not Turning On: Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged. Connect the unit to a power source and allow it to charge for a period.
• Inflator Not Pumping Air: Check that the air hose is securely connected to both the inflator and the tire valve. Ensure the target PSI is set above the current tire pressure.
• Air Leaking from Connection: Verify the air hose nozzle is tightly sealed onto the valve stem. Some leakage is normal during connection/disconnection, but excessive leakage indicates a poor seal.
