4. CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY OF THE JUMP STARTER

IMPORTANT!

 CHARGE IMMEDIATELY

AFTER PURCHASE, AFTER EACH USE

AND EVERY 30 DAYS, TO KEEP THE

JUMP STARTER’S INTERNAL BATTERY

FULLY CHARGED AND PROLONG

BATTERY LIFE.

DIGITIAL DISPLAY

The display can be used to indicate a

battery’s voltage percentage when

connected to a battery or the percentage of

charge in the jump starter’s internal battery.

With the switch in the OFF position,

connect the clamps to the vehicle’s

battery and its voltage is displayed. Turn

the jump starter’s rotary switch to 12V

(12V or 24V for PSJ-4424) and the

combined voltage of both internal and

external batteries is shown.

To read the internal battery’s charge

status: Press the display button to read

the percentage of charge left in the

internal battery. A fully charged battery

will read 100%.

CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY

Charge the internal battery for the

jump starter using an extension cord

(not included).

NOTE:

 Use of an improper extension

cord could result in a risk of fire and

electric shock.

1.

Make sure the rotary switch on the

front of the jump starter is in the O

(OFF) position.

2.

To charge, plug an 18 gauge (AWG)

or larger extension cord (not included)

into the charger plug on the side of

the jump starter.

3.

Plug the extension cord into a 120V

AC electrical wall outlet.

4.

While the jump starter is charging,

the battery’s percentage of charge will

be displayed. When the internal

battery is fully charged, the display 

will show 

100

. Complete charging 

may take up to 72 hours. The jump 

starter is then ready to use. 

5.

The charger will automatically go

into maintain mode and maintain

the battery at full charge without

damaging it.

6.

Charge the jump starter as soon as

possible after use.

IMPORTANT:

 Do not use the jump starter 

while charging the internal battery.

CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY 

WHILE DRIVING

You may also charge the internal battery 

while driving, using a male-to-male 

charger cable (part number 94500109 – 

not included). 

IMPORTANT:

 DO NOT CHARGE 

INTERNAL BATTERY FOR MORE 

THAN 30 MINUTES OR LEAVE THE 

BATTERY UNATTENDED. IT COULD 

EXPLODE, CAUSING PROPERTY 

DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. 

1.

Make sure the car is running.

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).

IMPORTANT:

 Using this method to charge 

the battery overrides the maintain mode 

and the battery can be overcharged.  

4.

Monitor the progress of the charge by

pressing the Display button on the front

of the unit. When the battery is fully 

charged, disconnect the accessory 

cable from the jump starter, then from 

the lighter socket of the vehicle.

NOTE:

 Completely disconnect the charger 

cable when the engine is not running.
