negative (NEG,N,-) battery terminal or vehicle chassis. 3.) When disconnecting, disconnect in the reverse sequence, removing the negative first (or positive first for positive ground systems). Jump Starting. 1.) Verify the voltage and chemistry of the battery. 2.) Confirm the HD battery clamps are connected to the correct polarity battery terminals. 3.) Connect the HD X Connector to the GB40. 4.) Make sure all of the vehicle’s power loads (headlights, radio, air conditioning, etc.
Low Voltage Batteries & Manual Override The GB40 is designed to jump start 12-volt lead-acid batteries down to 2-volts. If your battery is below 2-volts, the Boost LED will be “Off”. This is an indication that the GB40 can not detect a battery. If you need to jump start a battery below 2-volts there is a Manual Override feature, which allows you to force “On” the jump start function. CAUTION. USE THIS MODE WITH EXTREME CARE. THIS MODE IS FOR 12-VOLT LEAD-ACID BATTERIES ONLY.
before starting. If the vehicle does not start right away, wait 20-30 seconds and try again. Do not attempt more than five (5) consecutive jump starts within a fifteen (15) minute period. Allow the GB40 to rest for fifteen (15) minutes before attempting to jump start the vehicle again. Understanding Charge LEDs. The GB40 has four (4) Charge LEDs - 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. These Charge LEDs indicate the internal battery’s state-of-charge (SOC).

When the battery is 25% charged, the Red Charge LED will be solid. The 50% Charge LED will slowly pulse “On” and “Off”, when the battery is less than 50% charged. When the battery is 50% charged, the Red Charge LED will be solid.
