12. Troubleshooting

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
Device does not turn onBattery is completely discharged.Charge the device using a 40W PD charger.
Vehicle does not jump-startIncorrect clamp connection; vehicle battery is severely damaged; jump starter battery is too low.Ensure clamps are connected correctly (red to positive, black to negative). Check the jump starter's charge level. If the vehicle battery is completely dead, it may not be able to be jump-started. Consult a mechanic.
Air compressor does not workJump starter battery is too low (below 40-50%); pump tube not securely connected; target pressure not set.Ensure the jump starter has sufficient charge. Verify the pump tube is securely attached. Set the desired target pressure before starting inflation.
Inaccurate tire pressure readingMinor calibration variance.The device provides readings with approximately 1 PSI accuracy. For highly precise measurements, use a dedicated tire pressure gauge.
Device turns off unexpectedlyLow battery; overheating; internal error.Recharge the device. Allow it to cool down if it has been in continuous use. Check the LCD screen for error alerts.

The intelligent screen continuously monitors battery status and operational diagnostics, providing clear alerts for short circuits, reverse connection, temperature abnormalities, and low power. Refer to the display for specific error codes or warnings.
