6. When clamps are connected properly, turn the Jump-Starter power switch to ON.

7. Turn ON the ignition and crank the engine in 5-6 second bursts until engine starts.

8. Turn the Jump-Starter power switch back to the OFF position.

9. Disconnect the negative (–) engine or chassis clamp first, then disconnect the positive (+) battery clamp.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:

•

FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOUND IN THE “SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR JUMP STARTERS” SECTION OF THIS

INSTRUCTION MANUAL.

• This power system is to be used ONLY on vehicles with 12 volt DC battery systems.

• Never touch red and black clamps together — this can cause dangerous sparks, power arcing, and/or explosion.

• After use, turn the Jump-Starter power switch off.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:

• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before jump-starting this type of

vehicle, read the vehicle manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is advised.

• Excessive engine cranking can damage the vehicle‘s starter motor. If the engine fails to start after the recommended number of attempts,

discontinue jump-start procedure and look for other problems that need to be corrected.

• If the connections to the battery’s positive and negative terminals are incorrect, the Reverse Polarity Indicator will light and the unit will

sound a continuous alarm until the clamps are disconnected. Disconnect clamps and reconnect to battery with correct polarity.

• If vehicle fails to start, turn off the ignition, turn off the Jump-Starter power switch, disconnect the jump-start system’s leads and contact

a qualified technician to investigate why the engine did not start.

• Recharge this unit fully after each use.

120 VOLT AC PORTABLE POWER SUPPLY

This unit has a built-in Power Inverter that provides up to 200 watts of AC power. This inverter is an electronic device that converts low

voltage DC (direct current) electricity from a battery to 120 volts AC (alternating current) household power. It converts power in two

stages. The first stage is a DC-to-DC conversion process that raises the low voltage DC at the inverter input to 145 volts DC. The second

stage is a MOSFET bridge stage that converts the high voltage DC into 120 volts, 60 Hz AC.

Power Inverter Output Waveform

The AC output waveform of this inverter is known as a modified sine wave. It is a stepped waveform that has characteristics similar to the

sine wave shape of utility power. This type of waveform is suitable for most AC loads, including linear and switching power supplies used

in electronic equipment, transformers, and small motors.

Rated Versus Actual Current Draw of Equipment

Most electrical tools, appliances, electronic devices and audio/visual equipment have labels that indicate the power consumption in amps

or watts. Be sure that the power consumption of the item to be operated is below 200 watts. If the power consumption is rated in amps

AC, simply multiply by the AC volts (120) to determine the wattage.

FIRST AID

•

Skin:

If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water for at least 10 minutes. If redness, pain, or

irritation occurs, seek immediate medical attention.

•

Eyes:

If battery acid comes in contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately, for a minimum of 15 minutes and seek immediate medical

attention.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on purchasing your new 700 Amp Jump Starter with Compressor and Power Inverter. Read this Instruction Manual and

follow the instructions carefully before using this unit.

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.

WARNING: Never attempt to use the AC and DC charging methods at the same time.
CAUTION: RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:

Failure to keep the battery charged will cause permanent damage and result in poor jump

starting performance.

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 40 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 either the Built-In 120 volt AC Charger or the DC charging adapter.

Make sure all other unit functions are turned off during recharging, as this can slow the recharging process.

If the the battery is overly discharged and the green LED lights when the charger is plugged in, this indicates the battery is at a high impedance stage.

If this occurs, recharge the unit and leave it charging for a period of 24-48 hours before use.

Charging/Recharging 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 two red and one green LED battery status indicators light or flash.

3. Once fully charged, disconnect the extension cord.

Notes:

The unit cannot be overcharged using this method.

The unit will not charge if the inverter power switch is turned on.

12 Volt DC Charging Method

Charging the unit from an external 12 volt DC power source requires the use of the 12 volt DC adapter (optional accessory). This adapter
