Cordless Rechargable
Digital Air Compressor with Digital Gauge
. Read this Instruction Manual and follow the
instructions carefully before using this unit.
CHARGING/RECHARGING
Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a full charge and long battery
life. All batteries lose energy from self-discharge over time and more rapidly at higher
temperatures. Therefore, batteries need periodic charging to replace energy lost through
self-discharge. When the unit is not in frequent use, manufacturer recommends the battery
be recharged at least every 30 days.
Before each use, check the unit’s battery status on the LCD Screen:
•
Four solid bars on the battery icon indicate a full battery. The unit is ready to use.
•
Only one or two solid bars on the battery icon indicates that the unit’s battery charge
level is low. In this case, the battery SHOULD be recharged before use or the built-in low-
voltage protection may activate (the empty battery icon will flash for a short period before
automatic shut-down). If the unit shuts down, it MUST be recharged immediately.
•
An empty battery icon indicates the battery MUST be recharged immediately.
Notes:
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it upon purchase and
before using it for the first time. Initial AC charge should be for 10 hours or until the battery
icon shows 4 solid bars.
Recharging the battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent heavy discharges
between recharges and/or overcharging will reduce battery life. The battery must be
recharged using the 120V AC Charging Adapter.
Make sure all other unit functions are turned off during recharging, as this can slow the
recharging process.
The time required to fully recharge the built-in battery depends on the charge status after
use. Approximate recharging time is 10 hours.
CAUTION: RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:
•
Failure to keep the battery charged will cause permanent damage and may result in poor
performance.
•
Overcharging will reduce battery life. Do not overcharge:
– Never charge for longer than 10 hours using the 120V AC Charging Adapter.
– Never charge for longer than 5 hours using the 12V DC Charging Adapter.

USING THE PORTABLE COMPRESSOR
This 12 Volt DC Air Compressor is the ultimate compressor for all vehicle tires, trailer tires
and recreational inflatables. The compressor hose with tire fitting is stored on the storage
clips at the side of unit. A Nozzle Adapter is supplied and is stored in the Nozzle Adapter
Storage Compartment. Refer to the “Features” section to locate all components.
The 12V DC Air Compressor can be used in either Auto Mode or Manual Mode, as detailed
in the following sections.
IMPORTANT:
When the compressor is operated either in the Manual Mode or at a
low PSI in the Auto Mode, the unit may start in low and gradually rev up. When the
compressor is operated at higher PSIs in Auto Mode, the unit may operate normally for
several minutes, then rev down for a few minutes before returning to normal operation.
This feature protects the unit from overheating during normal use. In any event, do not
operate the compressor continuously for extended periods of time (approximately 10
minutes, depending on ambient temperatures), as it may overheat. This could damage the
compressor. If the compressor must be operated for longer periods: every 10 minutes press
and hold the Power Button for one second to turn the compressor off, then restart after a
cooling down period of approximately 30 minutes.
Note:
The 2-LED Area Light will remain lit as long as the unit is turned on.
