5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Pre-Charging
The DSR132 must be pre-charged before
it can be used to jump start your vehicle.
(Press the ON/OFF button once to see the
Ultracapacitor charge %.) The "Standard
Mode" instructions will guide you on using your
current vehicle's "weak" battery to pre-charge
the jump starter. If your vehicle's battery is
completely discharged, or does not allow you
to pre-charge the jump starter, see "Alternative
Pre-Charge Methods".
Standard Mode
In most cases, the weak battery can fully
recharge the jump starter.
Follow these steps to pre-charge your jump
starter and get your car started:
1. For a negative-ground vehicle (as in
most vehicles), connect the POSITIVE
(RED) clamp to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +)
battery post. Next, connect the NEGATIVE
(BLACK) clamp to the vehicle chassis or
engine block, away from the battery.
2. For a positive-ground vehicle, connect
the NEGATIVE (BLACK) clamp to the
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post. Next,
connect the POSITIVE (RED) clamp to
the vehicle chassis or engine block away
from the battery.
3. The jump starter will turn on automatically.
The digital display will show the voltage of
the vehicle's battery.
4. Press the ON/OFF button. The jump
starter will start to recharge. The digital
display will show the charging percentage
of the internal ultracapacitors.
5. When digital display shows FUL, and the
condition indicator is steady green, crank
the engine.
Alternative Pre-charge Methods
If your vehicle's battery is completely
discharged, or is unable to charge the jump
starter, the Fault indicator will turn on and an
audio alarm will sound. You can use one of the
following alternative pre-charging methods:
• From a battery (i.e, friend's car)
Connect the jump starter's red (POSITIVE)
output clamp to the POSITIVE post of
the battery. Next, connect the black
(NEGATIVE) output clamp to a heavy,
unpainted metal part of the chassis or
engine block, away from the battery. DO
NOT connect clamp to the negative
battery post, carburetor, fuel line or a
sheet metal part. The jump starter will start
to charge itself automatically. When the
digital display shows FUL, the audio alarm
sounds and the condition indicator is steady
green, turn off and disconnect the jump
starter by removing the output clamp from
the chassis or engine block, followed by the
output clamp from the battery post.
• From a 12V socket
The jump starter can be recharged from a
donor car's 12V DC socket. Make sure the
car is running. Plug in the provided 12V
adapter. Charging starts automatically.
Once you have fully charged your jump
starter (the digital display shows 100%),
you can continue with the connection and
starting instructions in Standard Mode.
If your vehicle's battery is completely
discharged, and you are unable to start the
vehicle in Standard Mode, you may need to
use the Override Mode starting instructions.
Override Mode
If there is no battery mounted on the engine
to be started, follow these steps to use
Override mode:
NOTE: The GLOW function will not operate in
this mode.
• Always read the vehicle manufacturer's
instruction manual.
• An initial battery indication of below 12V may
suggest that there is an internal fault.
1. Remove the vehicle's positive (red) lead
from the battery terminal (fig. 1). Ensure
that the jump starter is switched off.
Connect the jump starter's positive clamp
to the vehicle positive lead, NOT the
battery terminal (fig.1).
2. Press the ON/OFF button for 2 seconds and
then release.
Override can be activated two ways:
• If the capacitor's charge is over 80%,
Override mode (OUr) will activate and an
audio alarm will sound.
• If the capacitor's charge is less than 80%,
the lithium ion batteries will recharge the
capacitors until the display shows 100%.
Override mode (OUr) will then activate,
and an audio alarm will sound.
3. After Override mode is activated, the
condition indicator will pulse to show that
the jump starter is getting ready to start
the engine.
