female and female-to-male) on the left side of unit.
3. Set up the unit as described in the "Preparing to Charge/Boost Using the Included Battery Clamps" section
of the Important Safety Instructions at the beginning of this manual. Follow all directions and observe all
warnings and cautions.
Note:
If the battery clamps are incorrectly connected with regard to polarity, the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring will flash blue and
red alternately to indicate a fault has occurred. Remove the clamps and then reconnect them properly.
4. When the unit is properly connected, press the Main Power Button to turn the unit on. The Operating Status
LED Indicator Ring will light one of the three colors (Blue, Yellow or Red) to indicate the unit's battery
status. The unit will automatically detect whether the vehicle battery has sufficient power to charge the
unit's internal battery. This process takes several seconds. Depending on the vehicle's battery voltage, the
Operating Status LED Indicator Ring will either start flashing or light solid blue to indicate the unit can begin
charging; or detect a low vehicle battery and, if you take no further action, attempt to boost the vehicle
battery.
5. Press and hold the USB/Light Button for five seconds, and then release to put the unit in Charging Mode.
When the unit has detected that the vehicle battery has sufficient power, the Operating Status LED Indicator
Ring will flash yellow three times, then flash blue to indicate the unit is in Charging Mode.
Note:
If the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring does not flash yellow three times, the unit has determined that the unit' s internal battery
cannot be charged from the vehicle as connected. Check the connection to the vehicle' s battery. If the unit is properly connected,
the vehicle battery may be in fault condition or has insufficient power to charge the unit' s battery.
6. Charge until the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring lights solid blue, indicating that charging is complete.
First remove the clamp from vehicle chassis, and then remove the clamp from the battery terminal.
Disconnect the double barrel tip of the Battery Clamp cable from the Double Barrel Charger Connector. Store
the Battery Clamps in a safe place.
Note:
When the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring lights solid blue, the unit will terminate the charging process. The unit will shut
down automatically after one hour to protect the vehicle battery from being drained.
IMPORTANT:
• If you connect the 12V DC Boosting/Charging Cable or Battery Clamps, then do not press and hold the USB/
Light Button for five seconds and then release, the unit will automatically begin assessing the vehicle battery to
determine whether to go into booster mode. Pressing and holding the USB/Light Button for five seconds, then
releasing will force the unit into Charging Mode.
• The unit will automatically monitor the vehicle battery condition during the charging process. If it detects
the battery power from the vehicle drops too low, the charging process will terminate and the unit will
automatically shut down to protect the vehicle battery.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: If the unit is turned on with no connection to a vehicle battery, and the USB Port or Area Light are
turned off, the unit will shut down after 1 minute of inactivity.
Note: Some newer model cars have electronic 12V DC accessory outlets that require the vehicle battery to be
charged in order to function. If this is the case, it is necessary to use the battery clamp method of boosting.
BOOSTING USING THE 12V DC BOOSTING/CHARGING CABLE
1. Set up the battery booster with the 12V DC Boosting/Charging Cable as described in the "Charging/
Recharging the Unit" section. Make sure the AC Charging Adapter is disconnected.
2. When the unit is properly connected, press the Main Power Button to turn the unit on. The Operating Status
LED Indicator Ring will light solid one of the three colors (blue, yellow or red) as described in the Battery
Status (Standby) Mode section of "Reading the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring".
Note:
If the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring lights red, the unit needs to be recharged before use.
3. The unit will automatically detect the vehicle battery status and determine the booster period for the vehicle
battery. The Operating Status LED Indicator Ring will flash or light in one of three colors (green, yellow or
red) as described in the "Booster Mode" section of "Reading the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring".
IMPORTANT:
– The unit will detect impedance from the vehicle's DC accessory outlet as it may affect the boosting rate.
If it is detected as too high, the Area Light on the right hand side of unit will flash for about 5 seconds
to indicate the 12V DC Boosting/Charging Cable plug is in bad contact with the vehicle's DC accessory
outlet. Rotate the adapter plug slightly to make sure there is good contact.
– If it detects that the vehicle battery has sufficient power to charge the unit's internal battery, the unit
may switch to Charging Mode and the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring will flash blue.
– If it detects the unit is overheated, the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring will flash red and blue
alternately to indicate a fault has occurred.
– If it detects the unit's internal battery is in extremely low charged state (0%), the built-in low voltage
protection will activate and the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring will flash red and yellow alternately
before automatically shut down.
– If it detects that the vehicle battery is in fault condition due to lead sulfation or an internal shorted
cell, the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring will flash red and green alternately and the unit will stop
operating until the unit is disconnected from the faulty battery.
4. When the Operating Status LED Indicator Ring lights solid green, the vehicle is ready to be started.
