To Use The Pocket Generator™ To Boost Vehicle’s Low Battery System

WARNING: Be sure that the ON/OFF switch on the inverter is in the OFF position, before using unit as Battery Booster. Failure to do so may cause damage to the inverter, and will void manufacturer’s warranty. Note: The Pocket Generator™ will not fully charge a completely dead battery, but it can be used to boost a vehicle’s weak battery system, or to provide auxiliary power for the onboard electrical systems and selected memory settings for electronics (A/C, seats, radio, etc.). Using the adapter cord with two cigarette lighter-type plugs, insert one end of the cord into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter receptacle, and the other end into the corresponding receptacle on the Pocket Generator™. When power assist is completed, disconnect the adapter cord’s plugs from the vehicle’s cigarette lighter receptacle and the Pocket Generator™.

To Use The Pocket Generator™ As A Memory Saver For Onboard Systems And Pre-Sets

WARNING: Be sure that the ON/OFF switch on the inverter is in the OFF position, before using unit as Memory Saver. Failure to do so may cause damage to the inverter, and will void manufacturer’s warranty. When the vehicle’s battery system is to be disconnected for repair or maintenance, the Pocket Generator™ will provide auxiliary power to maintain the selected memory settings and other onboard electrical systems, until power is restored. BEFORE the vehicle’s battery system is disconnected: using the adapter cord with two cigarette lighter-type plugs, insert one end of the cord into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter receptacle, and the other end into the corresponding receptacle on the Pocket Generator™. Onboard power will be maintained. AFTER the vehicle’s battery system is reconnected, disconnect the adapter cord’s plugs from the vehicle’s cigarette lighter receptacle and the Pocket Generator™.
