5. If the 12V DC device draws more than 15A or has a short circuit, the internal circuit breaker of the jump
starter will trip and disconnect the power to the device. Disconnect the 12V DC device. The breaker will
automatically reset a short time after an overload is disconnected.
6. Recharge immediately after unplugging the 12V DC device.
NOTE: The DC power outlet is wired directly to the internal battery. Extended operation of a 12V DC
device may result in excessive battery drain.

Using the USB Port
6.3
The USB port provides up to 2.1A at 5V DC.
1. Ensure the battery clips are securely clipped on the storage holders.
2. Turn the Rear Console USB/Converter switch to the "USB" position.
3. Plug the device into the USB port on the rear console.
4. Turn the USB device on.
5. Reverse these steps when finished using the USB port.
6. Charge the jump starter as soon as possible after using the USB port.
Before Using the Converter
6.4
Important Safety Instructions:
1. Keep the jump starter well ventilated in order to properly disperse heat generated while it is in use.
Make sure there are several inches of clearance around the top and sides and do not block the vents
on the sides of the jump starter.
2. Make sure the jump starter is not close to any potential source of flammable fumes or clothing.
3. Keep the jump starter dry.
4. DO NOT allow the jump starter to come into contact with rain or moisture.
5. DO NOT operate the jump starter if you, the jump starter, the device being operated or any other
surfaces that may come in contact with any power source are wet. Water and many other liquids can
conduct electricity, which may lead to serious injury or death.
6. Do not place the jump starter on or near heating vents, radiators or other sources of heat.
7. Do not place the jump starter in direct sunlight. The ideal air temperature for operation is between
50° and 80°F.
8. Do not use the converter near an open engine compartment where fumes may accumulate.
9. Do not modify the AC receptacles in any way.
Using the Converter
6.5
It is important to know the continuous wattage of the device you plan to use with the converter. The jump
starter must be used with devices drawing 400 watts or less. If the wattage is not marked on the device, use
only devices that draw less than 4.0 Amps of AC current.
Devices like TVs, fans or electric motors require additional power to start (commonly known as the "starting"
or "peak" power). The jump starter can supply a momentary surge in wattage; however, even devices rated
less than the maximum 400 watts can exceed the converter's surge capability and cause an automatic
overload shutdown.
Do not use the converter with a product that draws a higher wattage than the converter can provide, as
this may cause damage to the converter and the product.
Make sure the device you are using is compatible with a modified sine wave converter.
