Power display & charging
Open the charging port door (7) and connect the supplied charging cable, connect the other end to a
suitable 5v 2amp charger (most mobile phone chargers are compatible) and connect to the power
supply. Only use the charging cable supplied, other cables will not work correctly and could cause
damage to the inflator.
Charge to 100% before first use. Whilst charging the battery capacity indicator shows a flow animation
indicating charging is taking place and the jog wheel pulses. When fully charged the battery capacity
indicator will have 4 bars illuminated.
Charging takes approx. 4/5 hrs (time varies with different environmental conditions).
If the inflator is charged when it is turned on it will automatically enter the charging protection mode.

Battery capacity indicator: the number of bars on the display shows the remaining battery capacity.
CHARGING THE INFLATOR
Note: the built-in lithium-ion battery may be damaged by fully draining the battery.
During operation the battery capacity (bars) may drop quickly. This is because of battery voltage
discharge during inflation. It may return to the pre-inflation level once inflation is complete but it does
not affect inflation functionality. If not used for long periods it is recommended to charge every 3
months to maintain battery efficiency.
To conserve power the inflator features a power save mode and will shut down after approx. 180
seconds. Note the inflator does not have a inbuilt memory so any personal settings will not be saved.
Battery protection
The Michelin Top-Up Tyre Inflator has an inbuilt protection feature to protect it against short circuiting,
overheating, over-voltage, over-curent and under-voltage during charging and inflating.
storage
When not in use the inflator should be stored indoors in a cool dry place. Do not store outdoors or in
the vehicle. Battery expansion, leakage or fire may occur due to the very high temperatures reached
inside vehicles.
To switch the inflator off manually press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. When OFF appears
on the display briefly press the power button again. The screen will go blank, the inflator is now off.
