Calibrating your JACO Superior Products FlowPro Digital Tire Inflator (JSP-013) is a simple process to ensure accurate tire pressure readings. Here's how to do it:
- Preparation: Make sure the inflator is turned off and not connected to a tire valve stem.
- Enter Calibration Mode: Press and hold the power button for about 3 seconds until the display shows "CAL".
- Zero Calibration: While in calibration mode, press and hold the power button again for approximately 3 seconds until the display shows "CAL 0.00".
- Connect to a Reliable Pressure Source: Attach the inflator to a verified pressure source, like a calibrated pressure gauge or another known accurate tire inflator.
- Apply Known Pressure: Activate the pressure source and set it to a known pressure value (e.g., 30 PSI).
- Capture the Reading: Once the pressure stabilizes, press the power button on the JSP-013 inflator to capture the pressure reading.
- Compare Values: The display will show the captured pressure. Compare this value to the known pressure value set on your pressure source.
- Adjust if Necessary: If the displayed pressure differs from the known pressure, adjust the calibration using the "+" or "-" buttons to increase or decrease the displayed value.
- Repeat and Verify: Repeat steps 6-8 until the displayed pressure on your JACO inflator matches the known pressure value.
- Exit Calibration Mode: When finished, press and hold the power button for approximately 3 seconds to exit calibration mode.
It's a good practice to periodically check and recalibrate your JACO FlowPro Digital Tire Inflator (JSP-013) to maintain accuracy. For more detailed instructions or any troubleshooting, consult your user manual or contact JACO customer support.
