2.Plug the extension cord into a 120V AC electrical wall outlet.

3. The CHARGING (red) LED

will light indicating charging.

4.The CHARGED (green) LED will light when the battery has reached full charge. This could take up to 72 hours due to the age and condition of the battery. The charger will automatically go into maintain mode and maintain the battery at full charge without damaging it.

5.Charge the Instant Power™ as soon as possible after use.

Do not use the Instant Power™ while charging the internal battery.

You may also charge the internal battery while driving, using the male-to- male charger cable (p/n 38-99-001564 – not included). Insert one end of the accessory cable into the 12V DC power outlet and the other end into the vehicle’s accessory outlet (lighter socket). Completely disconnect the charger cable when the engine is not running.

The CHARGING (red) LED and the CHARGED (green) LED do not operate during this method of charging. Using this method to charge the battery overrides the maintain mode and the battery can be overcharged. Monitor the progress of the battery and when it reaches a full (100%) charge, disconnect the charger. Do not leave the battery unattended or it could explode causing property damage or personal injury.

5.OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

5.1Jump Starting a Vehicle Engine

Do not use the Instant Power™ while charging the internal battery.

1.Turn vehicle’s ignition OFF before making cable connections.

2.For a negative grounded system, clamp the red clip (+) to the positive terminal of the battery.

NOTE: In the rare case of jump-starting a vehicle that has a positive-grounded vehicle electrical system, connect the NEGATIVE black clip (-) to the negative terminal (-) of the vehicle battery. Then connect the POSITIVE red clip (+) to an unpainted and unmoving part of the vehicle chassis or engine block. If you are unsure of the nature of the vehicle’s electrical grounding system, check the owner’s manual of the vehicle. To disconnect the clips, reverse the order.

3.Clamp the black clip (-) to an unpainted and unmoving part of the chassis or engine block.

Risk of Explosion.

If you have connected the clips backwards, an audio alarm will

sound. DO NOT turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position. This could cause serious damage to the Instant Power™ or the vehicle. Reverse the connections and the audio alarm will stop.

4.Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.

5.Crank the engine. If the engine does not start within 5-8 seconds, stop cranking and wait at least 1 minute before attempting to start the vehicle again. (This permits the battery to cool down.)

6.After the engine starts, disconnect the black clip (-) and then the red clip (+) in that order.

7.Recharge the Instant Power™ as soon as possible after use.
