8. Using the compressor
The jump starter has abuilt-in compressor which can be used for inflating tyres, footballs or small inflatable toys.
Theair hose (14) is stored in acompartment beside thepressure gauge. Thecompressor has its own on/off switch (15).
8.1 Inflating tyres or other products with valves
1. Take out thehose (14) and press thehose nozzle securely onto thetyrevalve
as far as possible and press down on thelocking mechanism with yourthumb.
2. Make sure that thehose nozzle is securely inplace.
3. Set theon/off switch (15) to ON to start thecompressor.
4. Check theair pressure using thepressure gauge.
5. When desired pressure is reached, flip up thelocking mechanism and remove thehose nozzle.
6. Set thepower switch to OFF to turn off thecompressor.
7. Let thecompressor cool before storing thejump starter.
8. Replace thehose back in its compartment.
N.B. Ifthejump starter battery is fully charged it will normally be good for pumping about 3 tyres before
completely discharging.
8.2 Inflating items without a valve
3 extra adaptors (18) for thecompressor’s hose nozzle are included.
Thesecan be used for pumping things like footballs, volleyballs, etc.
1. Select theappropriate adaptor.
Takeout thehose (14) and insert thevalve adaptor as far into thehose nozzle
as possible and press down on thelocking mechanism with yourthumb.
2. Make sure that theadaptor is securely inplace.
3. Connect theadaptor to theitem to be pumped.
4. Set theon/off switch (15) to ON to start thecompressor.
5. Check theair pressure using thepressure gauge.
N.B. Smallitems such as footballs, volleyballs, etc. inflate very quickly. Becareful when inflating them.
6. Flip up thelocking mechanism and remove thehose nozzle.
7. Set thepower switch to OFF to turn off thecompressor.
8. Let thecompressor cool before storing thejump starter.
9. Replace thehose back in its compartment.
Warning! Readand follow 1.6 Specific safety instructions for using thejump starter’s air compressor
to minimise therisk for personal injury or property damage.
9. Care and maintenance
9.1 Cleaning and storage
• Turn off thecharge function and close the12 VDC socket cover. Placetheplug securely in thecharger
connection (11), set theon/off switch (7) to OFF and wipe theproduct with asoft cloth and alittle mild
detergent if needed. Neveruse abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
• Wipe thebattery clamps, making sure that any battery acid or other remnants are removed from theclamps
to minimise therisk of corrosion of themetallic parts.
• Make sure that no liquids penetrate theproduct. Donot use thejump starter if it iswet.
• Make sure thecharger leads are loosely coiled during storage. Theycan be damaged if coiled too tightly.
9.2 Changing the 12 V DC – 12 V DC adaptor fuse
1. Unscrew theridged part of theplug to access thefuse while keeping track of thesmall components (centre
pin, spring and rubber washer). N.B. Allthesmall components must be replaced in exactly thesame
position otherwise theadaptor will not function.
2. Replace thefuse only with one of thesame rating (8A/250V, 6×32 mm).
