CAUTION

Your Portable Air Compressor is Moisture and Dust Resistant, but NOT WATER OR DUST PROOF. Never place compressor in soft sand while running the compressor.

5. Turn the compressor power switch to ON and begin to inflate tire.
6. When the pressure gauge indicates the desired pressure, switch the unit OFF and remove the air hose from the tire's valve stem.
7. To check and verify the actual tire pressure, the compressor must be in the OFF position.

Please Note: During inflation, due to air velocity, pressure gauge cannot provide accurate pressure readings, to check and verify the actual tire pressure the compressor must be in OFF position.
