Verify that the charge voltage is optimal.
n
Make sure that the tension where you connect the docking station is around 14,4V,
engine running at about 2000 rpm, otherwise verify the earth and connections. A 13V
tension is not enough to recharge the Booster.
4.2. Starting
Important: on vehicles difficult to start, crank the engine for a maximum of 8-10 seconds
and wait for 3 minutes before further attempt to restart the vehicle.
n
Three reasons
:
a. To allow the voltage of the Booster battery to build up again.
b. To allow the renewal of gasses inside the battery.
c. To allow the internal components of the battery to cool down.
n
If you do not wait and/or the starting attempt is too long, you risk losing power, you
reduce your starting possibilities by the second attempt and you risk melting the fuse
inside.
Never connect the Booster to a battery or starter which is in short-circuit.
Never disconnect the Booster while engine running when there is no battery in the
vehicle or when the vehicle’s battery is at 0 volt.
n
This may cause failure to the diodes of the alternator.
Never place the Booster in short-circuit, for example by connecting the red clamp (+) to
the negative terminal of the battery and the blue clamp (-) to the vehicle’s earth.
n
The fuse of the battery will blow instantly.
4.3. Remark
If someone else uses the Booster, ensure they are well informed on how to use it safely,
and have read and understood the operating instructions. The longevity of the Booster
depends on it.
To ensure long life and optimal use of the Booster battery,
keep it in permanent charge in its docking station.
