6. Instruccions de funcionament
6.1 Inflating a Presta Valve Tire
The Airstik SL Mini-Pump is designed specifically for Presta valves. Follow these steps to inflate your tire:
- Unscrew the dust cap from your Presta valve.
- Desenrosqueu el petit knurled nut at the top of the Presta valve stem until it is loose. Press down briefly on the valve stem to release a small amount of air, ensuring the valve is open.
- Firmly push the pump head onto the Presta valve stem. The push-on design creates a seal without the need for a lever.
- Begin pumping by extending and compressing the pump handle. Continue pumping until the desired tire pressure is achieved. Refer to your tire's sidewall for recommended pressure ranges.
- Once inflated, quickly and firmly pull the pump head straight off the valve stem.
- Tighten the small knurled nut on the Presta valve stem and replace the dust cap.

- Check for damage to the pump's internal seals or the valve stem itself.
- Air leaking from pump head:
- The pump head may not be fully seated on the valve. Re-seat it firmly.
- Inspect the rubber gasket inside the pump head for wear or debris. Clean or replace if necessary.
- Pump action feels stiff or gritty:
