INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing your new Rechargeable Jump Starter
with Compressor. Read this Instruction Manual and follow the instructions
carefully before using this unit.
CHARGING/RECHARGING
Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a full charge
and long battery life. All batteries lose energy from self-discharge over time
and more rapidly at higher temperatures. Therefore, batteries need periodic
charging to replace energy lost through self-discharge. When the unit is
not in frequent use, manufacturer recommends the battery be recharged at
least every 30 days.
IMPORTANT: If you know the unit is discharged, but the battery status
LEDs illuminate as if the unit is fully charged when connected to a
charging power source, this may be due to the internal battery having high
impedance. The manufacturer suggests leaving the unit charging for a
period of 24-36 hours using the supplied AC charger before use.
Notes:
This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it upon purchase and before
using it for the first time. Initial AC charge should be for 24 hours.
Recharging battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent heavy discharges between recharges
and/or overcharging will reduce battery life. The battery can be recharged using the supplied 120 Volt
AC Charger.
Make sure all other unit functions are turned off during recharging, as this can slow the recharging process.
CAUTION –
Risk of property damage: Failure to keep the battery
charged will cause permanent damage and result in poor jump starting
performance.
Charging/recharging using the 120 volt AC charging
adapter
• Make sure all of the unit's functions are turned off.
• Insert the barrel connector of the AC charging adapter into the 12 volt DC
charging port on the back of the unit. Insert the plug end into a (powered)
standard North American 120 volt 60Hz outlet.
• Once the green LED lights or flashes, continue to charge for approximately
1-2 hours. Charge until two red and one green LED Battery Status
Indicators light solid.
• Disconnect the AC charging adapter and depress the battery status
button. If all 3 status lights illuminate, the unit is fully charged.
