OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Portable Power Source Features
The Truck PAC provides plenty of power for starting vehicles – more than enough to
start most cars, vans, SUVs, light trucks and delivery vehicles.
The Truck PAC will power most 12 Vdc accessories equipped with a male 12 Volt
outlet plug (12 Volt Model ES6000 only). The DC outlet features automatic overload
protection.
The unit features a test switch and LED lights. State of the art circuitry allows the unit
to remain continuously connected to the charger without the risk of overcharging.
Safety Features
Safety storage holsters prevent accidental sparking of clamps and rotate 90° for easy
clamp removal and replacement. Always re-holster the clamps after use.
Cable grooves lock the cables for clean storage (no hazardous or unsightly dangling
wires). Always re-wrap cables and properly secure clamps after each use.
The Truck PAC contains the latest technology with its 12 Volt sealed, non-spillable
battery and may be stored in any position.

Recharging Your Truck PAC
There are two ways to charge your Truck PAC. The recommended method is
automatic charging with the provided wall charger. An alternative method is through
the DC power outlet using the provided 12 Volt Male-Male Extension Cord (not valid
for 24 Volt Model ES8000). This second method is not automatic and must be
monitored because the Truck PAC could be damaged due to overcharging.
Charging using the supplied wall charger (recommended method). This is the
recommended charging method because it features automatic charging, eliminating
the possibility of overcharging. With this method, the wall charger is connected to the
Truck PAC through a small charging jack (pin jack), located on the rear of the unit.
Recharging takes approximately 4 to 6 hours for each light that does not come on
when the test button is pressed. With this method, your Truck PAC can be left
connected to the wall charger indefinitely. This is the only method for charging Model
No. ES8000.
