b) Additional information on lithium rechargeable batteries
• Li-ion batteries installed in this device require special care during charging/discharging, ope-
ration and handling.
• Never destroy or damage the rechargeable battery, do not drop it or puncture it with any
objects. Protect the rechargeable battery from mechanical stress. This may cause a fire or
explosion!
• Ensure that the device does not overheat during use, charging, discharging, transport and
storage. Do not place the device near heat sources and protect it from exposure to direct
sunlight. If the device overheats, there is a risk of fire and explosion!
• The device must not exceed a temperature of +60 °C.
• If a device is damaged or the outer cover is puffed/swollen, discontinue use of the device. Do
not recharge it. This may cause a fire or explosion!

Start-up and charging
• The quick start system must be fully charged before use.
• Standard USB quick chargers with a charging current of at least 1 A are suitable for charging.
An output charging current of at least 2 A is recommended because it shortens the charging
time.
• Connect one of the included charging adapter cables to the USB charger (not included). Only
one charging input may be used.
• Plug the Micro USB cable into the Micro USB charging input “Input 2” (4).
• Plug the USB-C charging cable into the USB-C charging input “Input 1” (5).
• As soon as your USB charger provides sufficient charging current, the charging process
is indicated by the LEDs of the charge level indicator (2), which light up one after another.
• If all 4 LEDs of the charge level indicator light up at the same time or are permanently lit, the
charging process is completed.
• Remove the charging cable from the start system.
• Briefly press the activation button (1) to display the current charge status.

Operation
a) Start support function
The quick start system can support a weak starter battery when starting the engine. During
start-up a very high current is needed. The quick start system emits multiple high current pulses
during the start-up phase. This is usually enough to support a weak starter battery. If this is not
enough, press a force start button to enable a manual force start mode with a longer-lasting
current pulse for a maximum of 30 seconds.
Never short-circuit the two pole terminals. This will discharge the quick start system
and damage the rechargeable battery.
To perform a normal start-up operation, proceed as follows:
• Check the charge status of the quick start system. For a start-up support at least 3 LEDs
must light up. If fewer LEDs are lit, the quick start system must first be charged.
• Open the protective cover (3) on the quick start system.
• Insert the plug (12) of the relay housing (10) into the connection for the starter cable (8). The
plug is mechanically coded and fits together only with the correct polarity. Ensure firm and
reliable contact.
• The LED status indicator (11) on the relay housing (10) starts to flash green and red alter-
nately.
• Connect the red pole terminal (14) to the plus pole (+) and the black pole terminal (14) to
the minus pole (-) of the car battery. Ensure that the contact is connected properly. Turn the
terminals back and forth to break possible oxide layers on the poles.
• Once the contact is established, you will hear a normal clicking sound from the relay housing.
Start your car within 30 seconds. The quick start system now emits multiple current pulses
during the start-up phase. They should be enough to start the engine.
• When the engine starts, disconnect the quick start system and remove the starter cable from
the quick start system. Close the connections with the protective cover.
• If the engine does not start, disconnect the quick start system. Wait approx. 5 minutes and
then perform a manual force start operation.
