Vec013_Manual_060805 6/17/05 6:06 PM Page 6 DC to DC Recharge Recharging the Jump-Starter from an external DC power source requires the use of the DC/DC adapter. This adapter has a male DC connector at each end. Unlike the AC recharge method, DC recharge does NOT automatically activate the “battery status” display and provide a taper charge. Battery status can still be monitored by pressing the battery status level pushbutton. WARNINGS • DO NOT DC charge for more than 3-4 hours maximum.
