Product diagram
The device consists of the following main components:

- 12V-DC Cigarette Lighter Plug: Connects to the vehicle power source.
- Replaceable 15A Fuse: Located in the plug.
- Quick Connector: Attaches to the tire valve.
- LCD Digital Display: Shows pressure readings.
- Power Switch: Controls the compressor.
- LED Flashlight: Controlled by a separate switch.
- Adapters: Includes needle valve, long cone, short cone, and valve extender.
Operation instructions
- Ensure the car engine is running before use.
- Plug the inflator into the car's 12V outlet.
- Use the R button to select the desired pressure unit (KPA, PSI, BAR, KG/CM²).
- Use the arrow buttons to set the target pressure. Ensure the preset is higher than the current tire pressure.
- Remove the tire valve cap and thread the air nozzle onto the valve stem.
- Press the power switch to the - side to start the compressor.
- The unit will automatically shut off when the preset pressure is reached.
- Remove the nozzle, replace the valve cap, and disconnect from the power source.
Adapter installation

- Push the nozzle handle up.
- Align the desired adapter to the nozzle.
- Rotate the adapter to secure it.
- Connect to the valve stem and press down the handle to lock it.
Troubleshooting
- Lights off, pump won't turn on: Check the in-line fuse, check the vehicle cigarette lighter fuse (must be 10A or higher), and ensure a strong connection to the 12V socket.
- Lights on, pump won't turn on: Check that the 12V socket is active, start the engine, toggle the power switch, and ensure the target pressure is higher than the current tire pressure.
- Air leaking: Ensure a firm connection between the air nozzle and the tire valve.
- Slow inflation: Inflation time depends on tire size. Allow the pump to cool for 10 minutes after use.
- Sudden shut-off: The pump may have overheated. Let it cool for 10+ minutes.
