Moving to the left of the AC recharge port are three LEDs, called the Battery Status Display, and a Battery Status Pushbutton. Pressing the pushbutton turns on the Battery Status Display. The pushbutton is pressed to check the battery level at any time. During AC recharge, the display is automatically active. During DC recharge, the display pushbutton can be periodically pressed to monitor the recharge process.

The colors of the three Battery Status Display LEDs are two red and one green. During AC recharge, the Battery Status Display is active to indicate the level of charge on the battery. The leftmost red LED indicates minimum charge on the battery. Recharge the battery when a single LED is the only one that lights. The center LED (red) indicates moderate charge on the battery. The green LED on the right indicates when the battery is FULL and you can stop charging.

To the left of the Battery Status Pushbutton is a work light. This provides the user with light while changing a tire, and connecting battery clamps. The work light is a long lasting lamp and will continuously operate for 32 hours from a fully charged battery. To the left of the Work light is the ON/Off rocker switch that controls operation of the work light.

Above the work light switch is a 12 Volt Accessory Socket. It is covered with a rubber protective cap. The cap keeps dust, dirt and moisture out of the socket. When the cap is lifted, the accessory socket can be used for powering 12 volt appliances that draw up to 15 amps current. This socket is also used during DC recharge.

1.1ADDITIONAL KEY FEATURES

2.Audible Polarity alarm that sounds when cable clamps are connected to incorrect polarity.

3.Cordless/rechargeable-includes recharge adapters for standard 110-volt AC wall socket, and vehicle’s 12-volt DC accessory outlet using adapter cables.

4.Powerful-225 CCA cranking amps - 400 Amp rated clamps

5.Includes non-spillable, maintenance-free, heavy duty, 9-ampere hour sealed lead-acid battery.

6.Requires no maintenance (other than recharging) for optimum operation.

7.Heavy duty, industrial grade copper clamps and #6AWG jumper cables-with exclusive recessed cable holsters.

8.Exclusive cable storage channels that keep jumper cables out of the way until they are needed.

9.110-volt AC charger is Underwriter Laboratories safety tested and listed.

10.Easy-to-read LED Battery Charge Status Display - activated by pressing the Charge Status Button and automatically activated during AC recharge.

1.2USES OF START-IT COMPACT

-Jumpstart (using heavy duty battery cable and clamps):

Most batteries of engines with a standard 12 volt DC battery system: boat, small truck, car, airplane, RV, personal watercraft, snowmobile, tractor, etc.

-Operate (using 15 ampere rated 12 Volt Accessory Socket): 12-volt DC Fans, fluorescent work lights, air compressors, spotlights, TVs, portable radios, cassette or CD players, and more. The unit can quick-charge a cellular phone by using the phone’s 12-volt DC adapter cord.

-Illuminate areas: under the hood, inside tents, work areas while changing tires, etc.

NOTE: Other Vector appliances may also be used with this jump starter as long as they do not exceed the 15 ampere limit of the jump starter’s cigarette lighter type socket.
