OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Portable Power Source Features
The jump starter provides plenty of power for starting vehicles – more than enough to
start most cars, vans, SUVs, light trucks and delivery vehicles.
The jump starter will power most 12VDC accessories equipped with a male 12 Volt
outlet plug. The DC outlet features automatic overload protection.
The unit features a test switch and LED lights. State of the art circuitry allows the unit
to remain continuously connected to the charger without the risk of overcharging.
Safety Features
The jump starter features our exclusive AWS - Advanced Warning System
TM
enhancement to alert the operator to unsafe jump starting conditions. For more
information regarding AWS, please see the Operating Instructions section of this
manual.
Safety storage holsters prevent accidental sparking of clamps and rotate 90° for easy
clamp removal and replacement. Always re-wrap cables and properly secure clamps
in holsters after each use.
The jump starter contains the latest technology with its 12 Volt sealed, non-spillable
battery and may be stored in any position.
Recharging Procedures
Note: Upon initial purchase or after long periods of inactivity, your jump starter should
be charged for a minimum of 24 hours.
Test Button, Charging, Power Levels and Charge Complete LEDs
There are two ways to charge your jump starter. The recommended method is
automatic charging using the supplied wall charger. An alternative method is through
the DC power outlet using the provided 12 Volt Male-Male Extension Cord. This
second method is not automatic and must be monitored because the jump starter
could be damaged due to overcharging, plus the Voltage Selector Switch must be in
the 12V position when using this charging method.
Charging using the supplied wall charger (recommended method).
This is the
recommended charging method because it features automatic charging, eliminating
the possibility of overcharging. With this method, the wall charger is connected to
the jump starter through a small charging jack (pin jack), located on the rear of the
unit. Recharging takes approximately 4 to 6 hours for each light that does not come
on when the Test Button is pressed. With this method, your jump starter can be left
connected to the wall charger indefinitely.
