TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem:
1 or 2 red lights come on, charger is plugged in for 24 hours and there is
no change in status of lights.
Answer:
Check charger to see if it is charging. Charger should be warm.
Problem:
Charger works well but still no change in status of lights when the wall
charger is connected to the jump starter (yellow light is on).
Answer:
Possible defective battery or faulty breaker. Try using a device (light,
TV, etc.) with a 12V plug on it to see if it works. If it operates, the jump
starter breaker is OK and the battery is the problem.
Problem:
All of the lights come on when the charger is plugged into the jump
starter, but when the charger is unplugged and the test button pressed,
no lights come on.
Answer:
Your jump starter has a defective battery which must be replaced.
Problem:
The jump starter is fully charged but has no power.
Answer:
Check where the wire meets the jaw on the jump starter clamp. Make
sure they are well crimped.
Problem:
When trying to use an accessory through the 12 Volt outlet on the jump
starter, I heard a clicking sound coming from inside the jump starter.
Answer:
The accessory is drawing too many amps, causing the internal circuit
breaker to cycle ON and OFF. There may be a problem with the
accessory (such as a short circuit) that is causing the overload condition.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Question:
How many jump starts can a fully charged jump starter perform before
needing to be recharged?
Answer:
1 to 30. Factors impacting this are temperature, general condition of the
vehicle being jump started, engine type and size.
Question:
Can the jump starter be recycled?
Answer:
Yes, the environment was one of our main concerns in the development
and design of the jump starter. Most battery outlets can dispose of this
product at its life's end. In fact, your jump starter contains a sealed, non-
spillable lead acid battery and proper disposal is required by law. See
Battery Removal and Disposal Instructions.
Question:
What is the ideal in-use temperature of the jump starter?
Answer:
Room temperature. The jump starter will also operate at below zero
temperatures, however its power will be reduced. Intense heat will
accelerate self discharge of the Jump starter battery.
Question:
I have a regular 10 amp battery charger, can I use it to recharge the jump starter?
Answer:
No, only the supplied wall charger should be used.
