PowerStation is equipped with a Reverse Polarity indicator light. If the cables are hooked
up incorrectly the red light will illuminate to provide a visual warning. If this happens,
disconnect the cables and reconnect in the opposite direction. Green light should illuminate
to indicate a correct hookup.
The PowerStation is also equipped with an internal battery diagnostician which analyzes
and reports condition of external battery, and can be used for routine monitoring and
maintenance of automotive and recreational 12V Sealed Lead Acid batteries.
When cables are connected correctly and the master rotary switch is turned to the “ON”
position, the diagnostic LCD display will illuminate to give a visual description of the external
batteries current condition.
There are 3 modes: Battery OK, Battery Low and Battery Dead. In all 3 modes and while
illuminated, the diagnostic LCD display will also illuminate and report the internal
PowerStation’s current power remaining (see illustrations below). This allows a visual
indicator that if for some reason you are unable to boost your car from a Battery OK or
Battery Low mode, that there may be another issue and a service technician or tow truck
should be called.
