You have 90 seconds to start
your vehicle before the PROJUMP

battery from reverse charging the unit.
NOTE:
If vehicle does not crank, or cranks very slowly, wiggle the
cable clamps on the vehicle battery to ensure they are making good
contact. Wait 60 seconds before trying to jump start your vehicle again.
Each new jump start attempt requires disconnection of both
clamps from the vehicle battery and reconnection.
