Troubleshooting/FAQs
Q. What should I do if the Jump-N-Carry
®
will not hold a charge?
A. Load test the battery. Charge battery 24 hours before load testing. Connect a load
tester (available at your local auto parts store) to the Jump-N-Carry
®
clamps to
check battery amperage. Depending on the model of load tester, your load testing
procedure may vary. A generic load test would bring the voltage down to 9.0 volts
and result in an amp reading of 70 amps for 6 seconds. Repeat this load test every
10 minutes for a total of three tests. If the amperage has dropped below 50 amps
on the last test, suspect a bad or weak battery.
Q. What is the ideal use for the Jump-N-Carry
®
?
A. The Jump-N-Carry
®
performs strongly when a vehicle’s battery needs an extra
boost because a light or radio was left on, or when a vehicle has been sitting for a
long period of time. The Jump-N-Carry
®
will start vehicles without any other
batteries present, but the primary use is for an extra boost.
Q. Will the Jump-N-Carry
®
start every vehicle?
A. No. In addition to a dead battery, a car may have other mechanical problems that
would prevent the Jump-N-Carry
®
from starting the vehicle.
Battery Replacement and Disposal
The Jump-N-Carry
®
battery may be removed by unscrewing the perimeter screws on
the back cover. Disconnect the wires from the battery terminals. Note the position of the
battery and wire locations.
• Two wire connections go to each terminal.
• The small wires are color coded – red for positive, black for negative.
• The large cable is identified by the color of the clamp attached to the cable – red
for positive, black for negative.
Caution: It is possible for the cables to become crossed inside the case when the
battery is removed. The cables always travel straight to the battery terminals and
should never cross each other.
• All red wires (red clamp) attach to the positive side of the battery. All black wires
(black clamp) attach to the negative side of the battery.
• To connect a new battery, slide the battery fully into the case. Note the color of the
wires and match the color to the battery terminals.
• Replace the perimeter screws on the back cover.
• Charge the for 24 hours upon installation of a new battery.
