INTRODUCTION
Your power pack unit is designed as a compact, durable and portable jump start sy stem for 12 volt DC vehicles
and boats. This self
contained system will st ar t most vehicles a nd boats without the 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 locaons
and/or in emergencies.
The power pack unit has an easy
to read, color coded baery meter that indicates charge level. A 12V DC socket is
provided for use with appliances that would operate from a vehicles ci garee lighter or 12V DC socket. This allows
maximum portability and ulity when your power pack unit is used in remote locaons.
For maximum convenience, your power pack unit can be recharged from a 120V AC power source. The built
in
500mA recharger/converter has an automac cut
off that prevents over charging the baery. A black rocker switch
operates the built
in lamp. A red rocker switch shows the baery condion on the meter. A covered 12V DC socket is
provided, as well as a covered rece ptacle for a 120V AC power recharging cord. The red light eming diode (led)
illuminates when the system is recharging.
Note: on/off switch only controls power to the 2 baery clamps. We suggest you keep this switch in the
"off" posion for all operaons other than jump starng a car.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR GETTING THE MOST FROM Y OUR NEW POWER PACK UNIT
RECHARGING:
1. For maximum baery life, we recommend that your power pack unit be kept fully charged at all mes. If the baery is
allowed to remain in a discharged state, baery life will be shortened. Table 1 shows the relaonship of the frequency of
use between recharging and the expected number of charge/recharge cycles.

2. The me required to fully recharge your power booster aer jump starng an engine is a funcon of how many jump
starts are performed between recharging sessions. Table 2 shows the approximate recharging mes you can expect.
