4. Setup
4.1 Initial Charging
Before first use, fully charge the portable air compressor. Connect the provided USB charging cable to the charging port on the device and a compatible USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, car charger, power bank). The digital display may indicate charging status. A full charge typically takes 3-4 hours.
4.2 Attaching Nozzles
Select the appropriate nozzle for the item you intend to inflate. The inflator comes with various nozzles for different valve types. Securely screw or push the chosen nozzle onto the air hose connection point of the inflator.
5. Operating Instructions
Image: Step-by-step guide for operating the tire inflator.
- Connect to Valve: Securely connect the inflation tube (with the appropriate nozzle attached) to the air valve of the item you wish to inflate. Ensure a tight seal to prevent air leakage.
- Power On & Select Unit: Press the power button to turn on the device. The digital display will light up. Short press the "R" button to switch between pressure units (BAR, PSI, KPA, KG/CM²).
- Set Desired Pressure: Use the "+" and "-" buttons to adjust the desired target pressure. Refer to the item's recommended pressure (e.g., car tire placard, ball instructions).
- Start Inflation: Press the power button again to begin inflation. The compressor will start operating, and the digital display will show the real-time pressure.
- Automatic Stop: The inflator will automatically stop once the preset pressure is reached.
- Disconnect: Once inflation is complete, disconnect the nozzle from the valve. Long press the "R" button to turn off the tire inflator.
5.1 Using the LED Light
The built-in LED light can be activated by a dedicated button (refer to device markings if available, otherwise assume integrated with power or a separate light button). This is useful for inflating in dark environments or during nighttime emergencies.
