Always follow this operating advice

and keep the operating instructions

safe in case you need them later.

When inflating tyres:

1. Place the connector on the shaft of

the valve and push it down as far as

possible. Lock the connector on by

folding the locking lever down.

2. Insert the plug on the end of the

power lead into the cigarette lighter

socket, making sure that the compres

sor is not switched on when you do

this. Then switch the compressor on.

3. Check the pressure on the pressure

gauge. Switch off the air compressor

when the desired pressure is reached.

Release the locking lever, remove the

connector from the valve and pull out

the plug.

4. WARNING: When you put the air

compressor away always make sure

that the locking lever is open.

When inflating other articles:

nsert a suitable adapter into the

connector and fold the locking lever

down.

2. Please bear in mind that small objects

like volleyballs or footballs are inflated

very quickly.

3. With the air compressor switched off,

insert the plug into the cigarette

lighter socket and only then switch

the air compressor on.

4. Check the pressure on the pressure

gauge.

5. Switch off the air compressor when

the desired pressure is reached.

Release the locking lever, pull out the

plug, pull off the connector and take

out the adapter.

Caution! Do not inflate continuously

for more than 10 minutes. Switch off

and allow an 8 minute pause after each

10 minutes of operation to protect the

motor, otherwise overheating can occur

after long periods of use and this can

lead to permanent damage of the motor.
