3. Setup and Charging

3.1 Initial Charge

Before first use, fully charge the inflator. Connect the provided USB-C charging cable to the inflator's charging port and to a suitable USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, car charger, power bank). The LED display will indicate the charging status.

3.2 Attaching the Air Tube

Screw the air tube securely onto the inflator's air outlet port. Ensure a tight connection to prevent air leakage during operation.

3.3 Selecting the Correct Adapter

Depending on the item you are inflating, attach the appropriate adapter to the other end of the air tube:

• Schrader Valve: Standard for most car, motorcycle, and some bicycle tires. The inflator's air tube connects directly.
• Presta Valve: Used for many road and mountain bike tires. Use the provided Schrader-Presta Valve Adapter.
• Needle Valve: For inflating sports balls. Use the provided Needle Valve Adapter.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Powering On/Off

Press and hold the power button (usually marked with a power symbol) to turn the inflator on or off.

4.2 Connecting to the Item

Securely attach the air tube (with the correct adapter, if needed) to the valve stem of the item you wish to inflate. Ensure a firm connection to prevent air loss.

4.3 Selecting Inflation Mode and Pressure Unit

The inflator features 5 preset inflation modes and a manual mode. Press the mode selection button (often depicted with multiple icons like car, motorcycle, bike, ball) to cycle through the modes:

• Car
• Truck/SUV
• Motorcycle
• Bike
• Ball
• Custom (Manual)

Each preset mode has a default pressure value. You can adjust this value using the '+' and '-' buttons. To change the pressure unit (PSI, BAR, KPA, KG/CM²), press the unit button (often depicted with a light bulb icon, which also controls the LED light).

4.4 Setting Target Pressure

Once a mode is selected, the current pressure of the connected item will be displayed. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to set your desired target pressure. The inflator will automatically stop when this pressure is reached (with an error margin of ±2 PSI).

4.5 Starting and Stopping Inflation

Press the power button briefly to start inflation. The inflator will begin pumping air and the display will show the increasing pressure. It will automatically stop once the target pressure is achieved. To manually stop inflation at any time, press the power button again.

4.6 Using the LED Light

The inflator includes an integrated LED light with three modes for enhanced visibility and safety:

• Flashlight: Provides constant illumination.
• SOS: Flashes an SOS signal.
• Strobe Light: Provides a rapid flashing light.

Press the light button (often the same as the unit change button) to cycle through these modes.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

Wipe the exterior of the inflator with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure no moisture enters the charging port or air outlet.

5.2 Storage

Store the inflator in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use the provided storage bag to protect it from dust and scratches. Ensure the air tube is detached and stored properly to prevent damage.

5.3 Battery Care

To prolong battery life, charge the inflator fully at least once every three months, even if not in regular use. Avoid completely draining the battery frequently. Do not attempt to replace the internal battery yourself.

6. Troubleshooting

• Inflator does not turn on: Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the charging cable and attempt to power on after a few minutes.
• No air is being pumped: Check that the air tube is securely connected to both the inflator and the item's valve. Ensure the correct adapter is used and properly attached. Verify that the target pressure is set above the current pressure.
• Inflator stops prematurely: The auto-stop feature activates when the preset pressure is reached. If it stops before the desired pressure, check your target pressure setting.
• Inaccurate pressure reading: Ensure the connection to the valve is tight. If readings are consistently off, compare with a known accurate gauge.
• Battery drains quickly: Ensure the device is fully charged before use. Extreme temperatures can affect battery performance.
