Tip: If the reverse polarity alarm sounds, disconnect clamps immediately and check connections.

Using the Air Compressor

For inflating tires, air mattresses, sports balls, etc.

1. Ensure the unit is ON and has sufficient charge (>20%).
2. Attach the compressor hose to the valve stem securely.
3. Press the Compressor button. The display will show current pressure.
4. Set the desired pressure using the +/- buttons (if equipped). The compressor will auto-stop when target is reached.
5. To stop manually, press the Compressor button again.
6. Disconnect the hose after use.

WARNING! Do not run compressor continuously for more than 10 minutes. Allow to cool between uses.
