OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
JUMP-STARTING USING THE CLAMPS
Battery Clamp Connection Precautions
• Connect and disconnect the battery clamps only after unplugging
the power source.
• Make sure the engine is not running when connecting or
disconnecting the battery clamps.
• Never allow clamps to touch each other.
• Attach clamps to battery and chassis as indicated in the section
"Connecting the Jump-Starter Using the Included Battery Clamps".
CONNECTING THE JUMP-STARTER USING THE INCLUDED
BATTERY CLAMPS
1. Position the Clamps to reduce risk of damage by the car hood,
doors, or moving engine parts.
2. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can
cause injury to persons.
3. Check polarity of battery posts. The positive (POS, P, +) battery
post usually has larger diameter than the negative (NEG, N, –)
post.
4. Connect the Clamp Connector to the Clamp Port on the unit. Be
especially careful, since both the Connector and Clamps are "live."
5. Connect the Positive (RED) Clamp from the Jump Starter to
the positive (POS, P, +) ungrounded battery post. Connect the
Negative (BLACK) Clamp to the negative (NEG, N, –) battery post,
the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not
connect the clamp to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal body
parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine
block.
Note: If the battery clamps are incorrectly connected with regard
to polarity, the Fault LED Indicator will light red until the clamps are
disconnected. Remove the clamps and then reconnect them with
correct polarity.
6. When disconnecting the Jump Starter, first remove the Negative
BLACK (–) Clamp from the negative battery post or the vehicle
chassis, and then remove the Positive RED (+) Clamp from the
positive battery post. Disconnect the Clamp Connector from the
Clamp Port of unit. Store the Clamps in a safe place.
Procedure
Take the following steps, observing all cautions and warnings in the
"Important Safety Instructions" section at the front of this manual.
1. Turn off vehicle ignition and all accessories (radio, A/C, lights,
connected cell phone chargers, etc.). Place vehicle in "park" and
set the emergency brake.
2. Make sure all the unit functions are turned off (the Battery Status
LED Indicators are not lit) and the USB Charging Cable is NOT
connected.
3. Lift up the protective cover of the unit's Clamp Port. Insert the
Clamp Connector into the Clamp Port on the unit.
4. Set up the unit as described in the "Connecting the Jump Starter
Using Included Battery Clamps" section, observing all warnings
and cautions in the "Important Safety Instructions" section.
5. When the unit is properly connected, the Boost Indicator on the
unit will light blue.
6. Turn on the ignition and crank the engine in 5-6 second bursts
until the engine starts.
7. When the process is completed, disconnect the Jump Starter.
First remove the Negative Black (–) Clamp from vehicle chassis,
and then remove the Positive Red (+) Clamp from the positive
battery post. Disconnect the Clamp Connector from the Clamp
Port.
