Operating Instructions
The air compressor is designed to inflate automotive and light truck tyres to the
manufactures recommended pressure.
It can also be used to inflate small low pressure inflatables such as sport balls & air
cushions.
Preparation for use:
Before plugging in the compressor ensure switch is in the “OFF” position.
If the compressor does not function check the power connection is secure.
Note: You may have to turn the car ignition on (to position ‘I’) before starting the
compressor. This is normally the first position without the car actually starting.
Warning
Always check that the car is in neutral and the handbrake is on.
