JUMPSTARTER
This Jump-Starter is equipped with a Jump-Starter Power Switch. Once
the connections are properly made, turn the switch to ON to jump-start
the vehicle.
1. Turn off vehicle ignition and all accessories (radio, A/C, lights,
connected cell phone chargers, etc.). Place vehicle in “park” and set
the emergency brake.
2. Make sure the Jump-Starter Power Switch is turned to OFF.
3. Remove jumper clamps from clamp tabs. Connect the red clamp first,
then the black clamp.
4. Procedure for jump-starting a NEGATIVE GROUNDED
SYSTEM (negative battery terminal is connected to chassis)
(MOST COMMON)
4a. Connect Positive (+) Red Clamp to vehicle battery’s positive
terminal.
4b. Connect Negative (–) Black Clamp to chassis or a solid, non-
moving, metal vehicle component or body part. Never clamp
directly to negative battery terminal or moving part. Refer to the
automobile owner’s manual.
5. Procedure for jump-starting POSITIVE GROUND SYSTEMS
Note:
In the rare event that the vehicle to be started has a Positive Grounded System (positive
battery terminal is connected to chassis), replace steps 4a and 4b above with steps 5a
and 5b, then proceed to step 6.
5a. Connect Negative (–) Black Clamp to vehicle battery’s negative
terminal.
5b. Connect Positive (+) Red Clamp to vehicle chassis or a solid,
non-moving, metal vehicle component or body part. Never clamp
directly to positive battery terminal or moving part. Refer to the
automobile owner’s manual.
6. When clamps are connected properly, turn the Jump-Starter Power
Switch to ON.
7. Turn ON the ignition and crank the engine in 5-6 second bursts until
engine starts.
8. Turn the Jump-Starter Power Switch back to the OFF position.
9. Disconnect the negative (–) engine or chassis clamp first, then
disconnect the positive (+) battery clamp.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury or property damage:
• FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOUND IN THE “SPECIFIC
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR JUMP STARTERS” SECTION OF THIS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
• This power system is to be used ONLY on vehicles with 12 volt DC
battery systems.
• Never touch red and black clamps together — this can cause dangerous
sparks, power arcing, and/or explosion.
• After use, turn the Jump-Starter Power Switch to OFF.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of property damage:
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if
vehicle battery is jump-started. Before jump-starting this type of vehicle,
read the vehicle manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is
advised.
• Excessive engine cranking can damage the vehicle’s starter motor. If
the engine fails to start after the recommended number of attempts,
discontinue jump-start procedure and look for other problems that need
to be corrected.
• If the connections to the battery’s positive and negative terminals are
incorrect, the Reverse Polarity Indicator will light and the unit will sound a
continuous alarm until the clamps are disconnected. Disconnect clamps
and reconnect to battery with correct polarity.
• If vehicle fails to start, turn off the ignition, turn off the Jump-Starter Power
Switch, disconnect the jump-start system’s leads and contact a qualified
technician to investigate why the engine did not start.
• Recharge this unit fully after each use.
USB PORTS
The USB Power Button and the USB Ports are located on the front of unit.
Refer to the “Features” section to locate.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• The USB-A Port provides up to 15W output power. The USB-C Port
provides up to PD 25W output power. The total output is up to 5V/15W
when the USB-C and USB-A are used simultaneously.
• When the USB Ports are in use, the unit will monitor for the following USB
fault conditions on both the USB Ports: low battery voltage fault, overload
and short circuit.
• The USB Ports will automatically shut down. Should this occur, disconnect
the USB-powered device and press the USB Power Button again to
turn off the USB Ports immediately. Make sure the unit does not need
to be recharged. Allow the unit to cool down for several minutes before
attempting to use the USB Ports again. If a fault occurs again, make sure
that draw of the USB devices plugged into the USB Ports do not exceed
the maximum rating. If an individual USB device is within specifications
and the fault occurs, have the USB device checked for malfunction and
do not continue to use it with these USB Ports.
USING THE USB PORTS
1. Press the USB Power Button to turn on both USB Ports. The USB
Power Indicator will light.
2. Plug the USB-powered device(s) into the USB power port(s) and
operate normally.
3. Press the USB Power Button again to turn off the USB Ports.
Periodically check the unit’s battery status by checking the Battery Status
LED Indicators. When all four battery status indicators light, it indicates a
full battery. When two or three battery status indicators light, it indicates
a partial battery level. When only one red battery status indicator lights, it
indicates that the unit needs to be recharged. The unit must be recharged
at this time or the unit’s built-in low voltage protection will activate. The
USB turns off automatically.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the USB Ports are turned off when the unit is
being recharged or stored.
Notes: This unit’s USB Ports do not support data communication. They
only provide power to external USB-powered devices. Some household
USB-powered electronics will not operate with this unit.
LED AREA LIGHT
The built-in LED Area Light is controlled by the LED Area Light Power
Button on the control panel (refer to the “Features” section to locate). Press
the LED Area Light Power Button once to turn the LED Area Light on. Press
the LED Area Light Power Button again to turn the LED Area Light off.
Periodically check the unit’s battery status by checking the Battery Status
LED Indicators. When all four battery status indicators light, it indicates a
full battery. When two or three battery status indicators light, it indicates
a partial battery level. When only one red battery status indicator lights, it
indicates that the unit needs to be recharged. The unit must be recharged
at this time or the unit’s built-in low voltage protection will activate. The LED
Area Light turns off automatically.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the LED Area Light is turned off when the unit is
being recharged or stored.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
All batteries lose energy from self-discharge over time and more rapidly at
higher temperatures. When the unit is not in use, we recommend that the
battery is charged at least every 30 days.
From time to time wipe the outside of the appliance with a soft cloth. Do
not immerse the appliance in water.
There are no user-replaceable parts. Periodically inspect the condition of
adapters, connectors and wires.
BATTERY
Please be advised that the battery is designed to last the service life of
the unit and is not replaceable, removable or serviceable. Service life is
dependent on a number of factors including but not limited to the number
of recharge cycles, and proper care and maintenance of
the battery by the end user. Contact manufacturer for
any information you may need.
