8. When the clamps are properly connected to the battery, the green light on the cable unit
safety block will illuminate (a three-second delay is normal). When the light illuminates steady
green, it is safe to proceed in these instructions. If the light fails to illuminate steady green or if
any red lights illuminate, consult the troubleshooting section of this manual.
9. Place unit on a secure surface away from moving parts.
10. Start vehicle engine. Stop if the vehicle does not start after 3 to 4 seconds of engine cranking.
Wait 3 to 4 minutes, then try again. If engine does not start after second attempt, discontinue
cranking and consult a professional.
11. The internal safety timer will automatically disconnect the circuit after 30 seconds to prevent
the vehicle battery from reverse charging the unit. If your vehicle still has not started,
disconnect the cables and try the procedure again.
12. When finished, disconnect the clamps in reverse sequence of connecting procedure—
first disconnect negative (black), then positive (red) clamps. Do not let the clamps touch
each other.
13. Disconnect the jumper cable assembly from the unit.
14. When convenient, using either AC or DC charging adapter, completely charge the
iOnBoost battery.
15. Store the unit and charge adapters in a cool, dry environment, away from flammable
materials. Remember to fully charge the unit every three months.
