Detecting Air Pressure
The current air pressure will automatically be displayed after the air hose is
connected to an item while the air compressor is powered on.
Determining the Correct Air Pressure
To ensure safety and prevent injuries from bursting items due to over-
inflation, always refer to the user manual or relevant directions
accompanying the item tobe inflated before inflation, in order to determine
the correct air pressure.
Tires
The recommended air pressure of tires for cars, bicycles, and motorcycles
is indicated on the sidewall of the tire.
The recommended tire pressure for cars is also indicated on the driver’s side
door jamb.
For details concerning load carrying capacity and recommended air pressure,
refer to your vehicle’s instructions or manual.
Balls
The recommended air pressure for footballs, basketballs, volleyballs, and
other balls is indicated near the ball’s air valve.

Presetting Pressure
Mode toggling
| Press the “Numeric Knob” to toggle between the five inflation modes below.
Select the preferred air pressure unit beforeinflating.
Press and hold the“Numeric Knob” to toggle between psi and bar.
---|---
| No mode indicator ON: User-specified pressure presetting (pressure
value and unit will be saved)
Adjustable range: 3-150psi
| Indicator ON in ball mode: default 8psi Adjustable range: 4-16psi
| Indicator ON in bicycle mode: default 45psi Adjustable range: 30-65psi
| Indicator ON in motorcycle mode: default 2.4bar Adjustable range:
1.8-3.0bar
| Indicator ON in car mode: default 2.5bar Adjustable range: 1.8-3.5bar
Adjusting the Preset Pressure
After selecting the scenario mode, turn the “Numeric Knob” clockwise to “+”
and counterclockwise to “-” to adjust the preset pressure value.
When adjusting a preset pressure, the number flashing indicates the target
pressure, and after flashing for 5s, the number being “ON” indicates the real-
time pressure.
Light
Short press the “Light ON/OFF” button to turn the air compressor’s light
on/off.
The light makes it easy to see in the dark when you have any operations, such
as connecting the air compressor to a valve.
Inflating
Start Inflating
After power-on, short press the “Power” button to start inflation, and the
digital display will show the real time pressure change during inflation.
When inflating, the air compressor will generate an operating noise of
75-80dB. Please take appropriate precautions to protect your hearing.
Stop Inflating
Once the preset pressure has been reached, the air compressor will
automatically stop inflating.
The air compressor can also be stopped at any time while inflating by short
pressing the “Power key”.
Caution
Items such as balloons, beach balls, and swim rings cannot be automatically
inflated because they have an air pressure requirement below the air
compressor’s minimum pressure range .
They can not automatically stop inflating through the preset pressure and
should be used with caution.
Battery and Battery Life
The battery of the air compressor will last about 30 minutes on a full charge
running without a load at an ambient temperature of 25 ° C.
Using the air compressor under a heavy load or at higher ambient temperature
may reduce its battery life.
Removal of Air Hose
The air compressor’s air hose may get very hot after inflating.
To prevent injuries, exercise caution when removing it from a valve.
Some air may leak out of the valve when removing the air compressor.
To avoid air leakage, quickly remove the air hose from the valve.
OFF
After power-on, press and hold the power button for about 2seconds to power
off the air compressor.
If the air compressor is not used for 3 minutes, it will automatically power
off.
Precautions
-
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. -
The air compressor has a built-in non-removable lithium battery and should never be exposed to fire or improperly disposed of.
The exposure of the lithium battery to extreme heat, impact or water may cause fire, spontaneous combustion, and even explosion.
Do not expose the air compressor’s battery to high temperature conditions, such as leaving it in a car in direct sunlight. -
The air compressor should not be stored at temperatures below -10 ° C or over 45 ° C.
Exposure to extreme heat or cold will shorten the air compressor’s service life and damage the built-in battery. -
Leaving the air compressor unused for a long time may harm the battery, it is recommended to charge the air compressor at least once every three months.
The air compressor has a built in DC motor which may produce electrical sparks when running.
Thus, it should never be used in flammable or explosive environment. -
If the air compressor makes an unusual noise while running or starts to overheat, turn it off immediately.
-
Always make sure the correct air pressure unit is selected before setting the air pressure to prevent accidents such as tire burst.
Common unit conversion: 1 bar=14.5psi, 1bar=100kPa. -
Always monitor the air compressor during usage and never leave it unattended when using it to avoid over-inflating when there is no preset pressure.
-
Only use the air compressor in a clean and dry environment.
Intrusion of dirt and dust may cause damage to the air compressor.
The air compressor is nonwaterproofed and should never be rinsed with water.

Troubleshooting
Error | Solution |
---|---|
Slow inflation speed |
- Check whether the air compressor’s battery level is sufficient.
- Check whether the air hose is leaking.
- Check whether both ends of the air hose are securely connected.
- Check whether the item that is being inflated is leaking.
Inflation failure after power-on|
- Check whether the air compressor’s battery level is sufficient.
- Check whether the current tire pressure exceeds the preset one.
Failure to increase or decrease the preset pressure| Make sure the air
compressor is set to the correct mode. Select the free mode with no iconON to
adjust the preset value within a range of 3 – 150 psi.
Normal inflation but the pressure displays zero| The pressure of low-pressure
inflatables including balloons is too low to be measured.
Air compressor power-off after connecting the air hose to a valve| Press and
hold the “Power/start-stop key” button to power on the air compressor again.
Air leakage when connecting the air hose| Make sure the air hose is securely
connected.
Different color of the battery level indicator when inflating and on standby|
The lithium battery’s voltage level significantly drops when discharging
power, causing the battery level indicator to have a different color when
inflating compared with standby state. This informal.
The display shows E01| The voltage from USB connector is abnormal.
Please use a 5V charger.
