Charger …
… the backlight will turn on for 10 seconds (only).
The LCD screen will continue to display the battery
status. The bars on the battery icon will change
from empty to solid (bottom to top) repeatedly.
Note: The unit will automatically power off once ALL the functions are turned off.
VIEWING BATTERY STATUS
To check the unit’s battery charge level, press the Battery Status Button. The Battery
Icon will indicate the battery charge level as follows:
• If the battery charge level is at full capacity, four solid bars will display.
• If the battery is partially charged, two or three solid bars will display.
• If the battery is nearly empty, one solid bar will display. The unit MUST be charged
at this time or the unit’s built-in low voltage protection will activate. The empty
battery icon and the backlight of the LCD screen will flash 10 times before
automatic shut down.
• If the Battery Icon displays four blank bars, the battery is completely empty. The
unit will not operate until the battery is recharged.
CHARGING/RECHARGING
Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a full charge and long
battery life. All batteries lose energy from self- discharge over time and more
rapidly at higher temperatures. Therefore, batteries need periodic charging to
replace energy lost through self-discharge. When the unit is not in frequent use,
manufacturer recommends the battery should be recharged at least every 30 days
and after each use.
IMPORTANT: If you attempt to use the unit when the unit’s battery charge level
is too low, the unit will automatically shut down. Recharge the unit with all other
functions turned off as soon as possible.
Notes: This unit is delivered in a partially charged state – you must fully charge it
before using it for the first time. Initial AC charge should be for 40 hours.
Recharging battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent heavy
discharges between recharges and/or overcharging will reduce battery life.
Make sure all other unit functions are turned off during recharging, as this
can slow the recharging process.
CAUTION – RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE: Failure to keep the battery
charged will cause permanent damage and result in poor jump starting
performance.
IMPORTANT: If you know the unit is discharged, but the battery icon displays four
solid bars as if the unit is fully charged when connected to a charging power source,
this may be due to the internal battery having high impedance. The manufacturer
suggests leaving the unit charging for a period of 40 hours using the built-in AC
charger before use.
Charging/Recharging Using the Built-In 120 Volt AC
Charger and AC Extension Cord (not included)
1. Lift the protective cover of the built-in 120 volt AC charger located on the
lower left front of the unit (refer to the Features section to locate). Connect
an extension cord to the unit. Plug the other end of the cord into a standard
120-volt AC wall outlet. When the unit is properly connected to an AC power
source, the LCD screen will display the following (the screen will be backlit):
