Connection To A Positive Grounded Vehicle; Vehicle Battery Boosting Using The Dc Charging Adapter - Wagan Tech SOLAR e POWER CUBE 1500 Guide D'utilisation

14. Turn ON the vehicle ignition switch and crank the starter in three-second bursts until the
engine starts.
15. If the vehicle fails to crank after seven tries, disconnect the jump start cables in reverse
order of steps 8–11. Investigate for additional reasons the engine will not start.
16. After the vehicle starts while the cables are still connected, run the motor at fast idle for
5 minutes to fast charge the Solar e Power Cube's battery. After charging, remove the
jumper cables in reverse of steps 8–11.
17. Turn OFF the Battery Disconnect Switch.

Connection To a Positive Grounded Vehicle

If the vehicle to be started has a positive grounded system (positive battery terminal connected to
the chassis), substitute the following steps to the instructions above:
10. Connect the positive (+) red clamp to the vehicle chassis or a solid, non-moving metal
vehicle component. DO NOT clamp directly to the positive battery terminal or a moving
part.
11. Connect the negative (−) black clamp to the vehicle battery's negative terminal.
VEHICLE BATTERY BOOSTING USING THE DC CHARGING
ADAPTER
CauTion —Do not leave the DC Charging Adapter connected to the vehicle's lighter socket when
starting the vehicle. Remove the DC Charging Adapter before starting the vehicle. This will pre-
vent the vehicle's DC socket fuse from blowing.
In some cases when the vehicle battery has enough power to crank the engine, but not enough
to start the vehicle, the DC Charging Adapter can be used to provide enough charge to the
vehicle's battery to start. Make sure the Solar e Power Cube is fully charged. The following
procedure outlines this process:
1. Make sure the Inverter switch is OFF and all appliances have been disconnected from
the Accessory Outlets and USB ports.
2. Turn ON the Battery Disconnect Switch.
3. Plug one end of the DC Charging Adapter to your vehicle's cigarette lighter (accessory)
socket. You may need to switch the ignition key to the "Accessory" position to supply
power to the lighter socket. Be sure to turn off any lights or accessories such as radio or
A/C fan that may be operating from the vehicle's battery.
4. Plug the other end into either of the two DC Outlets on the Solar e Power Cube control
panel.
5. Wait 15 minutes while the Solar e Power Cube trickle charges you vehicle's battery.
6. Remove the DC Charging Adapter from the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket before at-
tempting to start the engine.
7. If your vehicle engine cranks but does not start, investigate for other problems.
8. Store the DC Charging Adapter in the Storage Hatch.
