JUMP STARTING CONT.:
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
car battery and reconnection.
The engine should start if there are no
other problems (such as a bad starter or ignition circuit problem). Do not
attempt to jump start the vehicle more than 3 times with the Jump Starter.
If the vehicle fails to start after 3 attempts, it is likely due to alternative
reasons that should be checked by an auto mechanic.
7. As soon as the engine starts, the indicator box on the
BLACK
clamp will
give red and beep to let you know it is ok to disconnect.
8. Disconnect the cables from your vehicle within 30 seconds. First remove
the
RED
/POSITIVE (+) clamp and then the
BLACK
/NEGATIVE (-) clamp.
9. Do not allow the metal ends of the jumper cable clamps to touch each other,
or the
RED
clamp to touch anything metal on the car. Now unplug the
GRAY
end of the jumper cables from the Jump Starter. This will reset the jumper
cables. In 30-seconds the Jump Starter will power off automatically.
10. Keep the engine running for 20 to 30 minutes, or drive the car to recharge
the battery.
NOTE:
If the engine dies shortly after it has been jump started, or as soon as
the jumper cables are disconnected, it probably means the vehicle charging
system is not working (bad alternator, voltage regulator, wiring problem, or
loose/dirty battery cables). Please seek professional help from an auto
mechanic to find the root cause of the problem.
The Jump Starter may not work correctly for vehicles that require remote
battery jumper locations (e.g.: battery located in trunk or other location).
Please consult the owner’s manual for your vehicle.
