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 should be recharged at least every 30 days
and after each use.
Notes:
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it before using it for the first
time. Initial AC charge should be for 40 hours or until the Battery Status Icon shows 4 solid bars.
Recharging the 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.
NOTICE –
RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:
Failure to keep the battery charged
will cause permanent damage and result in poor jump starting performance.
IMPORTANT:
If you know the unit is discharged, but the battery icon displays four
solid bars as if the unit is fully charged when connected to a charging power source,
this may be due to the internal battery having high impedance. The manufacturer
suggests leaving the unit charging for a period of 40 hours using the built-in AC
charger before use.
Charging/Recharging Using the Built-In 120 Volt AC
Charger and AC Extension Cord (not included)
1. Lift the protective cover of the built-in 120 volt AC charger located on the
lower left front of the unit (refer to the Features section to locate). Connect
an extension cord to the unit. Plug the other end of the cord into a standard
120-volt AC wall outlet. When the unit is properly connected to an AC power
source, the LCD screen will display the following (the screen will be backlit):
The bars on the battery icon represent the capacity level of the unit’s internal
battery. After 10 seconds, the backlight will shut off.
The bars on the battery icon will change from empty to solid (bottom to top)
repeatedly to indicate the unit is charging.
2. Charge for approximately 40 hours or until the battery icon shows 4 solid bars.
3. When charging is complete, unplug the AC extension cord from the AC outlet
and then disconnect it from the unit.
Note:
The unit cannot be overcharged using this method.
