Powering a 12V DC Device:

 

The RoadStart is a power source for all 12V DC accessories that are equipped with a 12V accessory plug. Make sure the device  

 

to be powered is OFF before inserting the 12V DC accessory plug into the 12V DC accessory outlet.

5.2.1   Open the protective cover of the DC power outlet on the front of the RoadStart.

5.2.2.  Plug the device into the outlet and turn the device on (if required).

5.2.3.   If the device draws more than 15A or has a short circuit, the internal circuit breaker of the RoadStart will trip and disconnect the power  

 

to the device. Disconnect the device and the breaker will automatically reset.

 

The DC power outlet is wired directly to the internal battery. Extended operation of a 12V device may result in excessive battery drain.  

 

Recharge immediately after unplugging the device.
