1. After driving approximately 7~10 km (4~6 miles or about 10 minutes), stop at a suitable location.

2. Connect connection hose (9) of the compressor directly to the tire valve.

3. Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using the cable and connectors.

4. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to 220 kPa (32 psi). With the ignition switched on, proceed as follows.
