6. CHARGING THE JUMP STARTER
IMPORTANT! CHARGE IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASE,
AFTER EACH USE AND EVERY 30 DAYS, OR WHEN THE
CHARGE LEVEL FALLS BELOW 85%, TO KEEP THE INTERNAL
BATTERY FULLY CHARGED AND PROLONG BATTERY LIFE.
6.1 CHECKING THE LEVEL OF THE INTERNAL BATTERY
1.
Slide the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. The LCD display will
show the battery’s percentage of charge. A fully charged internal
battery will read 100%. Charge the internal battery if the display
shows it is under 85%.
2.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the unit’s charging cable
from a USB or wall charger before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. Simply turning off the controls will not reduce this risk.
3.
When charging the internal battery, work in a well ventilated area and
do not restrict the ventilation in any way.
6.2 CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY
NOTE:
Use a 2A USB charger (sold separately), or a 2A USB
charging port to quickly recharge the jump starter. Using a charger
with less than 2A will increase charge time.
1.
Plug the Micro USB end of the charging cable into the input port.
Next, plug the USB end of the charging cable into a charger’s USB
port.
2.
Plug your charger into a live AC or DC power outlet.
3.
The LCD display will light, the digit begins to flash and show “IN”,
indicating that charging has begun.
4.
The jump starter will fully charge in 7-8 hours. When the unit is fully
charged, the display will show “100%”.
5.
When the battery is fully charged, disconnect your charger from the
outlet, and then remove the charging cable from the charger and the
unit. Slide the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position, if you are not using
the unit immediately.
