ORDER OF DISCONNECTION
2.
Disconnect positive
(red) clamp from positive
battery terminal.
1.
Disconnect negative
(black) clamp
from frame.
3.
Disconnect cables from
iOnBoost.
Read the remainder of the instructions before using the iOnBoost!
Jumpstart Procedure
1. Turn off the vehicle ignition and all accessories (radios, lights, air conditioners), and
disconnect electronic devices.
2. Set the emergency brake and put vehicles with automatic transmission in park position.
3. Determine the polarity of the vehicle’s battery terminals. The positive (POS, P, +) battery
terminal usually is red and larger in diameter than the negative (NEG, N, −) terminal. If you
are unsure, first refer to the vehicle owner’s manual. Make sure the negative battery terminal
is also connected to the vehicle frame.
4. If engine was recently cranked, use a non conductive material (cardboard or a folded
newspaper) to wave away (dispel) explosive gases. Do this for a few minutes before any
vehicle connections.
5. Insert the blue plug of the jumper cables into the iOnBoost’s jumper terminal. When fully
inserted, the red and green lights on the cable safety block should both flash continuously.
Never allow clamps (positive & negative terminals) to touch together or contact the same
piece of metal to prevent short-circuits and arcing�
6. Securely connect the positive (+) red clamp to the positive (POS, P, +) terminal of the vehicle
battery or the remote positive (+) terminal if equipped.
7. Securely connect the negative (−) black clamp to a non-moving, metal part of the engine or
frame as far away from the vehicle battery as possible.
8. When the clamps are properly connected to the battery, the cable indicator light on the
cable safety block will illuminate steady red (a three-second delay is normal). When the
cable indicator light illuminates steady red, it is safe to proceed in these instructions.
If it fails to illuminate steady red, check connection for any shorts, reverse connection
or poor contact to the terminals. If the cable indicator light still fails to illuminate steady
red, press the manual activation button on the cable safety block. If pressing the manual
activation button fails to produce a steady red light, consult the troubleshooting section of
this manual.
9. Place unit on a secure surface away from moving parts.
