Safety Instructions
The warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to observe
these safety instructions! We do not assume any liability for any consequential
damage!
Ꮨ
We do not accept any liability for personal injury or damage to property caused
by incorrect handling or non-observance of the safety instructions. The
warranty will be void in such cases.
• The product must not be modified or converted, as not only the CE approval
will become void but also the warranty.
• The product must not be exposed to heavy mechanical stress. Falls from a
low height can damage the product.
• The compressor should only be operated with a voltage of 12V (e.g. a car
cigarette lighter socket).
• At low pressures (e.g. up to 5bar/75psi), the maximum operating time is 15
minutes; above this pressure, the operating time is about 5 minutes. Thereafter,
the compressor needs approx. 10 minutes to cool down before it can be used
again.
• The compressor must never be used unsupervised. Keep it out of the reach
of children!
• Avoid direct sunlight, heat or cold.
• The compressor must not become damp or wet.
• Do not exceed the permissible maximum inflation pressure for tires, rubber
boats, balls, etc. Explosionrisk!
• Due to its high current consumption, the compressor can discharge the vehicle
battery, if the compressor is used frequently and for long periods of time.
• The compressor contains no serviceable parts, do not disassemble it. Check
the compressor for damage before using for the first time; if you detect any
damage, do not put it in to use.
• Do not use the compressor for purposes for which it is not intended.
• Electronic devices are not toys and should be kept out of the reach of chil-
dren!
• Please contact qualified personnel if you are unsure about the safety or the
correct use of the product.
• Never leave the packaging material lying around unattended. Plasticfoil/bags
etc. can be dangerous playthings for children, there is a risk of suffocation.
• If you have reason to assume that safe operation is no longer possible, dis-
connect the device immediately and secure it against inadvertent operation.
• It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if:
- the device is visibly damaged,
- the device no longer works
- if the device was stored under unfavourable conditions for a long period of
time
or
- it has been subjected to considerable stress during transportation.
• Never pour fluids out above electrical devices. You run the risk of causing a
fire or a fatal electric shock.
• Maintenance, adjustment and repair may only be carried out by a qualified
specialist or a specialised repair shop.
• If you have any questions, which are not answered in this manual, please
contact our technical service or another specialist.
• Never operate the compressor while driving.

Use
☞
Never operate the compressor while driving.
• Remove the tire valve cap and screw the connector on to the tire valve. Where necessary, use
a suitable adapter, if you want to inflate an air mattress, an inflatable boat or the suchlike.
Close the clamping lever.
• To start the compressor, plug the connector into a 12V cigarette lightersocket in your vehicle,
and then move the On/Off switch to the ON position. The max. current consumption of the
compressor is approx. 12.5 A.
• When the required pressure is reached, put the power switch in the OFF position and remove
the plug from the cigarette lighter socket (do not pull on the plug cord!).
• Unscrew the connector. Cap the tire valve (e.g. screw the valve cap on).
Activating the LED Light
The automobile air compressor with light has a second ON/OFF switch for activating and
deactivating the LED light.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Apart from replacing the batteries, the product is maintenance-free.
To clean the outer casing of the components, a dry, it is sufficient to use a dry, soft and clean cloth.
If it is very dirty, use a cloth slightly moistened with warm water.
Never use aggressive cleaning agents.
Disposal
Electrical and electronic products do not belong in the household waste!
Please dispose of the device when it is no longer of use, according to the
current statutory requirements.
