Periodically check the unit’s Battery Status on the backlit LCD Screen.
Four solid bars in the Battery Icon indicates a full battery. When the battery
level is nearly empty with only one solid bar or empty Battery Status Icon,
the unit must be recharged at this time or the unit’s built-in low voltage
protection will activate. The empty Battery Status Icon will flash for a short
period of time before automatic shut down.
Notes:
• This unit’s USB Power Ports do not support data communication. They
only provide power to external USB-powered devices.
• Some household USB-powered electronics will not operate with this unit.
PORTABLE COMPRESSOR
The built-in 12 volt DC compressor is the ultimate compressor for vehicle
tires, trailer tires and recreational inflatables. A nozzle adaptor is supplied
that screws onto the end of the Sure Fit
®
nozzle at the free end of the
compressor hose. The compressor hose with tire fitting is stored in the
storage compartment. Refer to the “Features” illustration for locations of
compressor hose. The Compressor Power Button and Increase (+) and
Decrease (–) Compressor Pressure Control Buttons are located on the
control panel on the front of the unit.
Before proceeding, check the unit’s Battery Status on the LCD Screen.
Four solid bars in the Battery Icon indicates a full battery. When the battery
level is nearly empty with only one solid bar, the unit MUST be recharged
before use or the unit’s built-in low voltage protection will activate. The
empty Battery Status Icon will flash for a short period of time before
automatic shut down.
The compressor is capable of inflating up to 120 pounds per square inch
(PSI) pressure. The compressor can operate long enough to fill up to 3
average sized tires before the battery must be recharged. Return hose to
the storage compartment after use.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the Jump Starter Power Switch has been turned off
before attempting to use the unit as a Compressor.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of serious injury or property damage:
Follow all safety instructions found in the “Specific Safety Instructions for
Compressors” section of this instruction manual.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of serious injury or property damage:
Do not operate compressor continuously for longer than 10 minutes, as it
may overheat. This could damage the compressor. If the compressor must
be operated for longer periods: every 10 minutes press the Compressor
Power Button to turn the compressor off, then restart after a cooling down
period of approximately 30 minutes. In any event, the compressor will
automatically shut down after operating continuously for 10 minutes.
Inflating Tires or Products With Valve Stems
1. Screw the Sure Fit
®
nozzle onto the valve stem. Do not overtighten.
2. Press the Compressor Power Button. A beep will sound and the backlit
LCD Screen will display the following:
The Compressor Icon will light and the digital display will alternately
show the flashing pre-set PSI value (that was last set by the
compressor pressure control buttons) and the current pressure of the
item being inflated (which will light solid).
3. Press the “+” and “–” Pressure Control Buttons to set the desired
pressure from a range pre-set values (between 3 and 120), which will
display on the backlit LCD Screen. The unit will sound a beep with
each press of the buttons (holding the button speeds up the upward
or downward value selection). Once the desired pressure has been
entered, release the button and the flashing digital display will show the
new selected pressure, as follows:
The new selected value is now stored in the unit’s memory until it is
manually reset.
4. Press the Compressor Power Button once more to begin inflating. The
Compressor Icon will flash and the digital display will only show the
current pressure value (which will light solid) to indicate the compressor
is activated. Monitor the pressure on the LCD Screen.
Important Note: To interrupt during inflation, press the Compressor
Power Button again.
5. When desired pre-set pressure is reached, the compressor will
automatically stop.
6. Press the Compressor Power Button again to turn off the unit.
7. Unscrew and remove the Sure Fit
®
nozzle from the valve stem.
8. Allow the unit to cool, then recharge before storing away.
9. Store the compressor hose and Sure Fit
®
nozzle in storage
compartment.
Inflating Other Inflatables Without Valve Stems
Inflation of other items requires use of the nozzle adapter.
1. Screw the nozzle adapter into the Sure Fit
®
nozzle. Do not overtighten.
2. Insert the nozzle adapter into item to be inflated.
3. Follow steps 2 through 4 of the “Inflating Tires or Products With Valve
Stems” section.
IMPORTANT: Small items such as volleyballs, footballs, etc. inflate very
rapidly. Keep this in mind when setting pressure. Take extra care not
to over-inflate.
4. When the desired pressure is reached, the compressor will
automatically stop. Press the Compressor Power Button again to turn
off the unit.
5. Disconnect the adapter from the inflated item.
6. Unscrew and remove the nozzle adapter from the Sure Fit
®
nozzle.
7. Allow the unit to cool, then recharge before storing away.
8. Store the compressor hose, Sure Fit
®
nozzle and nozzle adapter in the
storage compartment.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
All batteries lose energy from self-discharge over time and more rapidly at
higher temperatures. When the unit is not in use, we recommend that the
battery is charged at least every 30 days.
Never submerge the unit in water. If the unit gets dirty, gently clean the
outer surfaces of the unit with a soft cloth.
There are no user-replaceable parts. Periodically inspect the condition of
adapters, connectors and wires.
BATTERY
Please be advised that the battery is designed to last the service life of
the unit and is not replaceable, removable or serviceable. Service life is
dependent on a number of factors including but not limited to the number
of recharge cycles, and proper care and maintenance of the battery by the
end user. Contact manufacturer for any information you may need.
SAFE BATTERY DISPOSAL
Contains a maintenance-free, sealed, non-spillable, lead
acid battery, which must be disposed of properly.
Recycling is required. Failure to comply with local, state
and federal regulations can result in fines, or
imprisonment.
Please r
ecycle.
WARNINGS:
• Do not dispose of the battery in fire as this may result in an explosion.
• Before disposing of the battery, protect exposed terminals
with heavy-duty electrical tape to prevent shorting (shorting can result in
injury or fire).
• Do not expose battery to fire or intense heat as it may explode.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Unit will not charge
• Make sure a suitable gauge extension cord is properly connected to both
the unit and a functioning AC outlet.
Unit fails to jump-start
• Make sure the unit is not being operated in the Compressor mode.
• Make sure unit’s Jump Starter Power Switch is in the on position.
• Make sure a proper polarity cable connection has been established.
