PRESSURE DETECTION AND INFLATION
A short press on the power button will start
inflation. A second short press will stop inflation.
When the pressure reaches the pre-set pressure
value the pump will automatically stop. After
turning on, connect the hose to the object to be
measured. The real-time pressure (12) will show the
pressure value.
PRESSURE CALIBRATION
After turning on, if the displayed pressure value is
not 0, press button (+) and (-) simultaneously for 2
seconds to enter the calibration mode. The display
will flash quickly, meaning the reset is complete.
Note: The device has been calibrated at the factory but a Reset/calibration
can improve accuracy due to variations in air pressure due to altitude.
DO NOT attempt to re-calibrate while connected to inflatable objects.
COMMON INFLATION PRESSURES
PSI KPA BAR
Car 35 - 50 240 - 350 2.4 - 3.5
Motorcycle 26 - 40 180 - 275 1.8-2.75
Bicycle 35 - 100 240 - 690 2.4-6.9
Ball 3-14 20-100 0.2-1.0
• When inflating tyres with normal “Schrader” valves, no adaptors need to
be fitted to the hose.
• Presta valves require the adaptor to be screwed onto the valve before
attaching the hose.
Avoid inflating the objects above the recommended inflation pressure. This
could lead to damage and /or injuries.
Low pressure products such as balloons/swimming rings/balls are outside the
minimum pressure range of the product as the air pressure is very low and the
pressure value cannot be pre-set. Use the inflator with caution.

TYRE INFLATION
1. Fix the tyre valve connector onto
the vehicle tyre valve, ensuring
the valve is clean.
• When connected correctly, the
digital display will show the
current pressure in the tyre. If this is
the correct tyre pressure as stated
in your vehicle handbook, remove
the valve connector.
2. If the tyre is below the
recommended pressure (as specified in your vehicle handbook), press
either the ‘-’ or ‘+’ pre-set button to adjust the pre-set value on the display
to the correct tyre pressure.
NOTE: The unit will default to the last tyre pressure set. You can then
adjust this using the ‘-’ or ‘+’ buttons.
3. Press the Power button to activate the inflator.
4. The tyre inflator will now inflate your tyre to the pre-set pressure and switch
off automatically when the pressure is reached. Towards final inflation, the
tyre pressure display reading will be slightly higher than the selected
pressure. When the tyre inflator stops, the final reading will be the selected
pressure. This is a normal function of the unit.
5. Press the power button to switch OFF the tyre inflator and remove the tyre
valve connector from the tyre valve, returning the hose to its storage
position.
6. Take care that the hose has not become hot to the touch when
disconnecting.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Keep the tyre inflator free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe with a clean
cloth or blow it down with compressed air at low pressure. DO NOT use
cleaning agents or solvents as these may be aggressive to the plastic parts.
Ensure that no water can get into the interior of the tyre inflator.
Your tyre inflator has been designed to give long and trouble free service. If,
however, having followed the instructions in this booklet carefully, you
encounter problems, take the tyre inflator to your local CLARKE dealer.
Store the tyre inflator in a dry location.
