Performance of your Jump-N-Carry
®
will depend upon several factors:
•Agood, solid connection between the Jump-N-Carry
®
clamps and the battery
and ground connections are a must. Moving the jumper cable clamps back and
forth while clamping will help create a better connection.
• Clean connections between your vehicle or equipment battery and its terminals
are very important. For an optimal connection, corrosion (soft grayish-white
build-up) upon battery terminals must be removed. With the ignition turned off,
disconnect the battery cables and clean the terminals and battery posts with a
baking soda solution.
• All batteries are affected by temperature changes, and the Jump-N-Carry
®
’s
small, lightweight battery is more sensitive to storage temperature than a stan-
dard automotive battery. Temperatures above 20º C will improve amperage out-
put, while temperatures below 20º C decrease amperage output. The ideal stor-
age environment for emergency use is at room temperature.
LED Indicators – MODEL 300 ONLY
To check the battery state of charge, press the red status button.
•AGood Green LED indicator only means the unit is ready to go.
•AGood Green LED and Recharge Red LED indicates the unit is low.
•ARecharge Red LED indicates the unit should be recharged before use.
•ACharging Red LED indicates the unit is charging and the AC charger
is working.
Battery Status Gauge – MODELS 400, 660, 950 & 4000
Press the red push-button to momentarily turn the gauge on.
• The Green shaded indicator bar indicates the unit is capable of jump-starting.
• The Yellow shaded indicator bar indicates the unit needs to be recharged.
• The Red shaded indicator bar indicates the unit must be recharged
before use.
Battery Status Gauge – MODEL 12/24
Press the red push-button to momentarily turn the gauge on. The gauge is an approximate
indicator of the battery's state of charge. When fully charged, the gauge should read 13 volts
or more when the unit is in the 12-volt mode, and 26 volts or more in the 24-volt mode.
12 Volt DC Accessory Outlet – MODELS 400, 660, 950, 4000 & 12/24 ONLY
Jump-N-Carry
®
is equipped with a standard 12 volt DC receptacle. Plug any accessory
up to 12 Amps into the socket and Jump-N-Carry
®
will provide power. If the amperage rat-
ing is exceeded, a built-in auto-reset circuit breaker automatically shuts power off until the
accessory, or overload source, is removed. Under extreme power usage, recharge the unit
for 36-48 hours.
