TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem:
1 or 2 red lights come on, charger is plugged in for 24 hours and there is
no change in status of lights.
Answer:
Check charger to see if it is charging. Charger should be warm.
Problem:
Charger works well but still no change in status of lights when the wall
charger is connected to the CS2000 (yellow light is on).
Answer:
Possible defective battery or faulty breaker. Try using a device (light, TV,
etc.) with a 12V plug on it to see if it works. If it operates, the CS2000
breaker is OK and the battery is the problem.
Problem:
All of the lights come on when the charger is plugged into the CS2000,
but when the charger is unplugged and the test button pressed, no lights
come on.
Answer:
Your CS2000 has a defective battery, which must be replaced.
Problem:
The CS2000 is fully charged but has no power.
Answer:
Check where the wire meets the jaw on the CS2000 clamp. Make sure
they are well crimped.
Problem:
When trying to use an accessory through the 12 Volt outlet on the
CS2000, I heard a clicking sound coming from inside the CS2000.
Answer:
The accessory is drawing too many amps, causing the internal circuit
breaker to cycle ON and OFF. There may be a problem with the
accessory (such as a short circuit) that is causing the overload condition.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Question:
How many jump starts can a fully charged CS2000 perform before
needing to be recharged?
Answer:
1 to 12. Factors impacting this are temperature, general condition of the
vehicle being jump started, engine type and size.
Question:
Can the CS2000’s battery be replaced?
Answer:
Yes, call Technical Service at (913) 310-1050 (U.S.).
Question:
Can the CS2000 be recycled?
Answer:
Yes, the environment was one of our main concerns in the development
and design of the CS2000. Most battery outlets can dispose of this
product at its life’s end. In fact, your CS2000 contains a sealed, non-
spillable lead acid battery and
proper disposal is required by law
. See
Battery Removal and Disposal Instructions.
Question:
What is the ideal in-use temperature of the CS2000?
Answer:
Room temperature. The CS2000 will also operate at below zero
temperatures, however its power will be reduced. Intense heat will
accelerate self discharge of the CS2000 battery.
