USING THE JUMPSTARTER AS A POWER SUPPLY
WARNING: ENSURE THE JUMPSTARTER IS SET TO 12V WHEN POWERING 12V
APPLIANCES. IF SET TO 24V THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCES.
The jumpstarter utilises 2 x 31Ah AGM batteries and can be used as a power supply
by connecting a cigarette lighter plug into the DC socket located on the front of the
jumpstarter. It is recommended to check the battery capacity before using the jumpstarter
as a power supply.

IMPORTANT: AUTO-RESET CIRCUIT BREAKER FOR DC OUTPUT
The 12V DC socket is protected with an automatic resetting circuit breaker. When the
output experiences a short circuit or overload, the circuit breaker will trip, cutting off the
power temporarily. After a few seconds, the circuit breaker will automatically reset and
provide power again.
