CHARGING/RECHARGING
Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a full charge and long battery life. All
batteries lose energy from self-discharge over time and more rapidly at higher temperatures.
Therefore, batteries need periodic charging to replace energy lost through self-discharge. When the
unit is not in frequent use, manufacturer recommends the battery be recharged at least every 30 days.
Notes:
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it upon purchase and before using it for the first time.
Initial AC charge should be for 24 hours.
Recharging battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent heavy discharges between recharges and/or overcharging will
reduce battery life. The battery can be recharged using the Built-In 120 Volt AC Charger.
Make sure all other unit functions are turned off during recharging, as this can slow the recharging process.
Important:
If you know the unit is discharged, but the battery status LEDs illuminate as if fully charged when connected to a
charging power source, this may be due to the internal battery having a high impedance. The manufacturer suggests leaving the unit
on charge for a period of 24-48 hours before use.
CAUTION: RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:
Failure to keep the battery charged will cause permanent
damage and result in poor jump-starting performance.
Charging/Recharging the Jump-Starter Using the 120 Volt AC Charger and a
Standard Household Extension Cord (not included)
1. Lift the AC adapter cover located on the back of the unit and connect an extension cord to the unit.
Plug the other end of the cord into a standard 120-volt AC wall outlet.
2. Charge until the green Battery Status LED Indicator lights solid or flashes.
3. Disconnect the extension cord.
JUMP-STARTER
This Jump-Starter is equipped with an On/Off Power Switch. Once the connections are properly made,
turn the switch 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
