USING THE UNIT AS A JUMP-STARTER
This Jump-Starter is equipped with a safety Power Switch that only allows energy to
flow when proper connections are made to battery and frame. Once the
connections are properly made, turn the switch ON to jump-start the vehicle.
1. Turn OFF vehicle ignition and all accessories (radio, A/C, lights, connected cell
phone chargers, etc.). Place vehicle in “park” and set the emergency brake.
2. Make sure the Jump-Starter Power Switch is turned to OFF.
3. Remove jumper clamps from clamp tabs.
Connect the red clamp first, then
the black clamp.
4. Procedure for jump-starting a NEGATIVE GROUNDED SYSTEM (negative
battery terminal is connected to chassis) (MOST COMMON)
4a. Connect POSITIVE (+) RED clamp to vehicle battery’s POSITIVE terminal.
4b. Connect NEGATIVE (–) BLACK clamp to chassis or a solid, non-moving,
metal vehicle component or body part. NEVER CLAMP DIRECTLY TO
NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL OR MOVING PART.
5. Procedure for jump-starting POSITIVE GROUND SYSTEMS
Note: I
n the rare event that the vehicle to be started has a POSITIVE GROUNDED
SYSTEM (positive battery terminal is connected to chassis), replace steps 4a
and 4b above with steps 5a and 5b, then proceed to step 6.
5a. Connect NEGATIVE (–) BLACK clamp to vehicle battery’s NEGATIVE terminal.
5b. Connect POSITIVE (+) RED CLAMP to vehicle chassis or a solid, non-
moving, metal vehicle component or body part. NEVER CLAMP DIRECTLY
TO POSITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL OR MOVING PART.
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.

Battery Charge Status Indicators
A series of three LED indicators (two red and one green) display the level of charge
in the battery. The left red LED indicates minimum battery charge. Charge the
battery when only a single red LED is lit. The center red LED indicates moderate
battery charge level. When the green LED is lit, the battery is at full charge. The
charge status LEDs will light when the charge status pushbutton is pressed, or
automatically during AC recharge operation. During DC charging, the charge
status pushbutton can be pressed periodically to monitor recharging progress.
12 Volt DC Accessory Outlet
This accessory outlet is provided for use with appliances that are 12 volt DC
compatible. The DC accessory outlet also allows for DC recharging from a vehicle
or other 12 volt source.
AC Recharge Port
Located just below the 12 volt DC outlet, the AC port is also covered by a rubber cap.
The AC recharge adapter’s barrel connector plugs into this port during recharge.
LED Area Light
Located on the center of the control panel, the twin LED area light provides proper
lighting while changing a tire or connecting the unit to a battery. This area light is
activated by the Area Light Power Switch located on the lower right side of the
control panel.
Applications
• Jump-start most engines with standard 12 volt DC battery systems, such as boats,
small trucks, cars, airplanes, RVs, personal watercraft, snowmobiles, tractors, etc.
• Using the 12 volt accessory outlet, operate such appliances as 12 volt DC fans,
fluorescent worklights, air compressors, spotlights, TVs, portable radios, cassette
or CD players. The unit can quick-charge a cellular phone by using the phone’s
12 volt DC adapter cord.
• Illuminate areas under the hood, inside tents and work areas.
