INTRODUCTION
Your power pack uniƟs designed as a compact, durable and portable jump start system for 12 volt DC vehicles
and boats. This self contained system will start most vehicles and boats withouƩhe need for a host vehicle or 120V AC
power supply. This system can also be used as a safe, portable source of 12V DC electric power in remote
and/or in emergencies.
The power pack unit has an easy to read, color coded meter thaƟndicates charge level. A 12V DC sockeƟs
provided for use with appliances that would operate from a vehicle’s cigare lighter or 12V DC socket. This allows
maximum portability and u lity when your power pack uniƟs used in remote lo ons.
For maximum convenience, your power pack unit can be recharged from a 120V AC power source. The built in
500mA recharger/converter has an automa ccut that prevents over charging the ery. A black rocker switch
operates the built in lamp. A red rocker switch shows the ery on the meter. A covered 12V DC sockeƟs
provided, as well as a covered receptacle for a 120V AC power recharging cord. The red light em ng diode (led)
illuminates when the system is recharging.
Note: on/ switch only controls power to the 2 clamps. We suggest you keep this switch in the
on for all s other than jump star ng a car.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR NEW POWER PACK UNIT
RECHARGING:
1. For maximum life, we recommend that your power pack unit be kepƞully charged at all mes. IŌhe ery is
allowed to remain in a discharged state, ery life will be shortened. Table 1 shows the re oŌhe frequency of
use between recharging and the expected number of charge/recharge cycles.
TABLE I. BATTERY LIFE

10 500+
2. The me required to fully recharge your power booster jump star an engine is a f oĬow many jump
starts are performed between recharging sessions. Table 2 shows the approximate recharging mes you can expect.

3. Check the charge in your power pack unit by depressing the red push switch. The meter will show the
charge.

120V AC CHARGING:
Plug the 120V AC/12V DC charging adapter into a wall outlet and into the receptacle on your new power pack unit.
Charge this device for at least 4 hours or l the meter shows a full (14- to 15-V DC) charge when the red rocker switch
is depressed. The recharging converter circuit unit has an automa cut-Žī circuit so the internal ery cannot be
overcharged. To recharge your power pack unit ry from 120V AC follow these steps:
1. On the power packs right side, there are two receptacles, one is round and one is rectangular.
2. Pull the plug cover from the rectangular receptacle out, exposing two prongs of a standard 120V AC power cord. A
of your power pack unit.
3. One of the power cords furnished with your power pack has a standard 120V AC male plug at one end, and a rectangular
two prong receptacle at the other end. Plug this power cord into the rectanglular receptacle on the side of the unit and
4. to charge un l the voltmeter indicates full capacity in green area when the test bu is pressed.
Important: do not stop charging before the meter indicates full capacity in green area.
At this point, once the charger is disconnected, the voltage will slowly le back to read 100%. This is quite normal and
indicates that the ery is at full capacity. Note: to fully charge a could take up to 72 hours, depending upon the
state of discharge. The unit can remain plugged into the power socket inĚĞĮŶitely as the internal PCB has an au c
"ŇŽĂƚ charging circuit" which will not allow an overcharge on or damage to the ery.
12V DC CHARGING:
Your new power pack unit is equipped with a receptacle that will allow you to re-charge this system from the 12V DC
socket in your vehicle or boat.
Note: We recommend that you use the 12V DC recharging procedure only when necessary, as c ed use of the 12V
DC recharging procedure may shorten the system's life. To use the 12V DC recharging system:
1. Insert the power cord with the 12V DC plug into the 12V DC receptacle on your vehicle or boat.
2. Insert the plug at the other end of this power cord into the receptacle on the side of your power booster.
Charge this device for at least 4 hours o the meter shows a full (14- to 15-V DC) charge when the red rocker switch
is depressed. Unlike the AC charging circuit, there is NO FLOATING CHARGE circuit on the DC charging outlet. It is HIGHLY
recommended that DC charging only be used in emergency cases.

OPERATION
To use your power pack unit as a 12V DC power source:
1. up the cover oŌhe 12V DC receptacle on the side of your jump pack.
2. InserƩhe 12V DC plug from the appliance into the 12V DC receptacle.
Note: on/o switch can be in the ” posi on.
