Michelin Hi-power Tyre Inflator and Detachable Digital Gauge

A.The Michelin 12260 inflator is designed to inflate all types of vehicle tyres up to 40psi (excluding space saver tyres) and bicycle tyres up to 120psi.

A.It operates using a 12V power plug commonly found in vehicle auxiliary sockets / cigarette lighter socket.

A.Yes, it comes with valve adaptors for inflating sports balls, small inflatable toys and other inflatable items.

A.The digital tyre pressure gauge is accurate to within +/- 1 PSI, displaying readings in PSI, BAR, and kPa.

Ans.It can inflate a standard car tyre (175 x R15 size) up to 40 PSI in under 4 minutes, based on optimal conditions.Bicycle tyres (up to 120psi) also inflate quickly in a few minutes.

Ans.It includes a durable tyre valve connector and deflation bleed valve, ensuring safe and controlled tyre inflation.

Ans.It has a compact design with a built-in cable and hose storage compartment.Item dimensions are - L x W x H – 21c m x 11 cm x 21 cm, Item Weight - 700 Grams) making it convenient to carry and store.

Ans.Regularly inspect the hoses and adaptors for any signs of damage.Ensure the unit remains dry and the power lead is not over-stretched.

Ans.The inflator features a digital gauge which is accurate within the specified range (+/- 1 PSI).The maximum pressure reading the device can calculate is 50 PSI.

Ans.This inflation unit is sturdy due to its aluminium chassis and solid tyre valve connector, which contributes to its overall durability.

Ans.Noise levels during inflation are within acceptable limits for a tyre inflator.

Ans.Don’t leave the inflator unattended during use.Tyres should be inflated in a safe area away from traffic.Never allow children to operate it.

Ans.The inflator will easily fit in the trunk of a vehicle for emergency use.

Ans.This inflator has adequate cooling mechanisms.However, allow a cooling period of 10 minutes switched off after every 10 minutes of usage to prevent overheating.

Ans.Perform regular checks for hose and adaptor damage, ensuring the unit remains dry, and changing the batteries in the digital gauge when needed to maintain optimal performance.

Ans.Remove it from the inflator by pulling back the locking tabs.Press the on/off button to turn it on and cycle through the pressure formats (PSI, BAR, kPa) to select your desired format.Firmly press the nozzle onto the tyre valve to get a pressure reading on the LCD screen.

Ans.Remove the battery cover by holding the gauge upside down and pushing the cover down and away from the body.Note the polarity of the cells before removing them.Replace with new LR44 batteries and reattach the battery cover.

Ans.Yes, the digital tyre pressure gauge is detachable and can be used independently to check tyre pressures without using the inflator.

Ans.If the gauge does not turn on, replace the LR44 batteries.If the readings are inaccurate, ensure the nozzle is firmly and squarely pressed onto the tyre valve.

Ans.Press the on/off button on the gauge to cycle through the pressure units (PSI, BAR, kPa) and select the desired unit.
