DC CHARGING IN VEHICLE
You may also charge the internal battery while driving, using a male-to-male charger cable.
1. Turn the vehicle engine on.
2. Insert one end of the accessory cable into the 12V DC power outlet.
3. Insert the other end of the accessory cable into the vehicle’s accessory outlet (lighter socket).
Note
: Using DC charging method to charge the battery overrides the maintain mode and the battery can
be overcharged. Monitor the progress of the charge by pressing the Battery Voltage and % Indicator
button and do disconnect immediately after battery is fully charged. Completely disconnect the charger
cable when the engine is not running.
JUMP STARTING
1. This unit is only for emergency use, not for frequent commercial use! Do not attempt to jumpstart your
vehicle when the battery capacity of this device is below 30%.
2. Turn off the vehicle ignition and all accessories (radios, lights, air conditioners, etc.) and disconnect
electronic devices.
3. Identify polarity of battery posts.
The positive battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (POS, P, +).
The negative battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (NEG ,N, -).
4. Do not make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines, or thin metal parts.
5. Identify if you have a negative or positive grounded vehicle.
This can be done by identifying which battery post (NEG or POS) is connected to the chassis.
6. For a negative grounded vehicle (most common): connect the RED POSITIVE jumper clamp first to
the positive battery terminal, then connect the BLACK NEGATIVE jumper clamp to the negative
battery terminal or vehicle chassis.
7. For a positive grounded vehicle (very uncommon): connect the BLACK NEGATIVE jumper clamp first
to the negative battery terminal, then connect the RED POSITIVE jumper clamp to the positive battery
terminal or vehicle chassis.
WARNING
: If you have connected the clamps backwards, an audio alarm will sound and the Warning LED
will be lit. Do NOT turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. Reverse the connections and the audio
alarm will stop. NEVER allow two clamps to touch together or connect to the same metal when ON/OFF
switch gets the ON position! The jumpstarting function does NOT have reverse polarity protection or short
circuit protection. Incorrect operation of your jump starter may result in damage and personal injury.
8. Turn the switch to the ON position.
9. Crank the engine for no more than 8 seconds. If the engine does not start, wait 3 minutes before
cranking again.
10. After the engine starts, immediately turn the switch to the OFF position and remove the device from
the battery.
