Store the Airmoto in its provided storage bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the air hose is properly stored inside the unit to prevent damage.

5.3 Battery Care

To prolong battery life, avoid completely draining the battery before recharging. If the device will not be used for an extended period, charge it every 3-6 months to maintain battery health.

6. Troubleshooting

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
Device does not turn on.Low battery.Charge the device fully using the provided USB-C cable.
Inflation is slow or ineffective.Incorrect pressure setting; hose not securely attached; object too large for device capacity; low battery.Verify target pressure. Ensure hose is tightly screwed on. Check battery level. While effective for most tires, very large tires (e.g., some SUV/truck tires) or objects requiring very high pressure may take longer or exceed the device's capacity.
Device gets hot during use.Normal operation during extended use.Allow the device to cool down for a few minutes between inflation cycles, especially after inflating multiple tires.
Difficulty with control buttons/display.User unfamiliarity; small button size.Familiarize yourself with the controls by practicing. Ensure you are pressing buttons firmly and intentionally.
Air leaks from connection point.Hose not properly secured; worn adapter.Ensure the air hose is screwed on tightly to the inflator and the adapter is securely attached to the valve stem. Replace worn adapters if necessary.
