DIGITAL DISPLAY FUNCTIONS

1.PP-18400CI – To check the internal battery’s status, press the DISPLAY button on the front of the PP-18400CI. The display will show the voltage of the internal battery.

2.When hooked up to the vehicle's battery, the digital display shows the combined vehicle's voltage and the PP-18400CI's internal battery volt- age.

3.AC Power – When using the PP- 18400CI inverter, the digital display shows the wattage and voltage of the device being powered. Push the DISPLAY button to read wattage or push DISPLAY button again to read voltage. The internal battery is specifically designed to deliver high power jump-starting as well as repeti- tive deep cycling performance.

CHARGING INTERNAL BATTERY

NOTE: Internal battery’s status DISPLAY is most accurate when the Portable Power PP-18400CI has been disconnected from all devices and charging sources for at least 30 minutes. The DISPLAY feature will not work when the Portable Power is being charged.

CAUTION: Operating the Portable Power PP-18400CI while the internal battery is being charged may cause permanent damage to the PP-18400CI.

1.To check the internal battery’s charge level, press the DISPLAY button. The Digital Display will show the battery’s voltage.

2.To charge, follow instructions CHARGE INTERNAL BATTERY on page 4.

3.Once the battery is fully charged, the built-in charger automatically switches to float-mode monitoring, which trickle charges the battery and keeps it fully charged without overcharging so the PP-18400CI may be left permanently connected to the electrical wall outlet.

USING THE MALE-TO-MALE CHARG- ING CORD

The internal battery may also be charged while you drive by using the male-to-male accessory cable (included).

1.Make sure the PP-18400CI is OFF.

2.Insert one end of the male charging cord into the PP-18400CI’s 12V DC power outlet and the other end into the vehicle’s accessory outlet (lighter socket). Important: Disconnect power cord from the PP-18400CI and the vehicle’s accessory outlet when engine is not running.
