9Familiarise yourself with the application and limitations of the charger as well as the potential hazards. Also refer to the vehicle
manufacturer’s hand book. IF IN ANY DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
9Ensure the charger is in good condition before use. If in any doubt do not use the unit, contact your Sealey stockist.
9Use the starter/charger in the upright position only and ensure it is placed on a stable surface which will adequately support its weight.
9Keep tools and other items away from the engine and ensure you can see the battery and working parts of engine clearly.
9Ensure the output of the charger is the same voltage as the battery.
9Ensure that during charging, the charger is placed in a location where there is sufficient ventilation to prevent the build up of explosive
gases from a lead acid battery.
9If battery has caps to access the battery fluid, remove the caps and check the fluid level before connecting the power clamps.
9If necessary top-up the battery with distilled water by referring to the battery manufacturer’s instructions.. If the charger receives a sharp
knock or blow the unit must be checked by a qualified service agent before using.
9If the battery terminals are corroded or dirty clean them before attaching the power clamps.
9Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working area.
8DO NOT try to charge a non-rechargeable battery.
8DO NOT try to charge battery if battery fluid is frozen.
WARNING! To prevent the risk of sparking, short circuit and possible explosion DO NOT drop metal tools in the battery area, or allow
them to touch the battery terminals.
8DO NOT allow power clamps to touch each other or to make contact with any metallic part of the vehicle.
8DO NOT cross connect power leads from charger to battery. Ensure positive (+/RED) is to positive and negative (-/BLACK) is to negative.
8DO NOT pull the cables or clamps from the battery terminals.
8DO NOT use the charger outdoors, or in damp, or wet locations and DO NOT operate within the vicinity of flammable liquids or gases.
8DO NOT use the charger for a task for which it is not designed.
WARNING! DO NOT simultaneously charge batteries of different capacities or discharge levels.
WARNING! If a fuse blows, ensure it is replaced with an identical fuse type and rating. Use only Sealey genuine parts.

2. INTRODUCTION
Vehicle jump starting made easy with innovative patented technology. Unlike traditional boosters, it has no internal batteries, as it uses
Ultracapacitors to maximise the discharged battery’s voltage. Simply connect to the vehicle’s battery, even if discharged, and the unit will draw
enough power to energise itself in a matter of minutes. Power can then be pushed safely back through the starting system to jump start the
vehicle. If the vehicle’s battery is faulty or holding less than 5 volts, the ElectroStart range can be pre-charged via another vehicle’s battery, a Micro
USB charging cable (supplied with Model No. E/START800) or the 12V accessory lead (excludes Model No. E/START1224). The digital display
indicates battery voltage, capacitor charge and faults. Safely store the unit without the need for battery maintenance, and no delay waiting for a
battery to charge, the device is ready for use within minutes. Compact and lightweight for easier handling and storage, yet still delivers the same
result as heavy, bulky, lead acid battery equivalents. Ideal for both professional mechanics and DIY users.

5.3.4. When the engine fires, remove the E/START as soon as possible.
5.4. BY PASS MODE
5.4.1. In some situations the E/START may fail to start the car because the vehicle’s battery is too weak. Press ON/OFF for a few seconds
to activate BY PASS MODE.
5.4.2. After the ignition sign, fig.3 appears, turn on the engine as soon as possible.
5.5. PRE-CHARGE MODE
5.5.1. If the battery is too weak to charge the E/START, fig.7 will appear.
5.5.2. Connect the E/START to a good battery until the unit is fully charged, then remove.
5.5.3. Connect the E/START to the weak battery, the display shows the voltage in that battery.
5.5.4. Press the ON/OFF switch to activate. Fig.3 is now displayed.
5.5.5. Turn the engine on.
5.5.6 Remove the unit as soon as the engine fires.
5.6. ALTERNATIVE CHARGING METHODS.
In addition to using a 12V battery, as in 5.5.2., the E/START may be charged with either a 5V USB lead, or a 12V pin jack lead from a
vehicle accessory socket. The USB and pin jack sockets are located under a rubber flap in the base.
5.7. OVERRIDE MODE
5.7.1. If the pre-charge mode fails, use the override mode.
5.7.2. Charge the E/START as in 5.5.2./5.6.
