Initial Charging
Before first use, fully charge the jump starter.

- Connect the other end of the cable to a standard USB power adapter (5V/2.4A or greater recommended) or a computer USB port.
- The LCD display will show the charging progress. A full charge is indicated by 100% on the display.
- A full charge may take several hours. The unit can be used while charging, but this is not recommended for jump starting.
Using the Jump Starter
Preparing the Vehicle
- Turn off the vehicle's ignition and all electrical accessories (lights, radio, etc.).
- Place the jump starter on a stable, flat surface away from the vehicle's battery.
- Ensure the jump starter's power switch is off (the LCD should be on, showing battery level, but the jump start function should not be active).
Connecting the Clamps
IMPORTANT: Connect clamps in the exact order specified to minimize sparking risk.
- Connect the RED positive (+) clamp to the positive (+) terminal of the dead vehicle battery.
- Connect the BLACK negative (-) clamp to a clean, unpainted metal part of the vehicle's engine block or chassis, away from the battery and fuel lines. This is the grounding point.
- Double-check that connections are secure and correct.
Starting the Vehicle
- Press the Power/Jump Start button on the jump starter. The LCD may show an active status indicator.
- Within 30 seconds of activation, start the vehicle. Turn the ignition key as you normally would.
- If the vehicle does not start within 5-6 seconds, wait 10-20 seconds before attempting again.
- Once the vehicle engine is running smoothly, press the Power/Jump Start button on the jump starter to turn off the jump start function.
Disconnecting the Clamps
- Disconnect the BLACK negative (-) clamp from the vehicle's grounding point.
- Disconnect the RED positive (+) clamp from the vehicle battery's positive terminal.
- Store the cables neatly. Allow the jump starter to cool down if it feels warm.
Using the Power Bank Function
- Ensure the jump starter is charged (check LCD percentage).
- Use a standard USB cable to connect your device (phone, tablet, etc.) to the USB-A output port on the jump starter.
- Your device should begin charging automatically. The LCD will display the jump starter's remaining battery level.
- Disconnect your device when charging is complete.
Using the Emergency Flashlight
- Press the Flashlight button once for a steady beam.
- Press the Flashlight button a second time for a flashing strobe mode.
- Press the Flashlight button a third time for an SOS signal mode.
- Press and hold the Flashlight button for 2 seconds to turn the light off.
Maintenance and Storage
- Recharging: Recharge the jump starter every 3-6 months if not in use to maintain battery health. The LCD display shows the current charge level.
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquids or solvents.
- Storage: Store in the provided case in a cool, dry place. Ideal storage temperature is between 32°F and 77°F (0°C and 25°C).
- Cable Care: Inspect jumper cables for cracks or exposed wire before each use. Do not use if damaged.
Troubleshooting
- Jump starter does not power on: Recharge the unit fully. If the problem persists, the internal battery may be depleted and require a longer charging time.
- Vehicle does not start:
- Ensure clamps are connected securely in the correct order.
- Check that the jump starter has sufficient charge (above 20%).
- The vehicle's problem may not be the battery (e.g., starter motor, fuel system).
- Wait 1-2 minutes before attempting again.
- LCD shows an error icon or flashes: Refer to the quick start guide for specific icon meanings. Common causes are reverse polarity detection, overload, or high internal temperature. Disconnect clamps and allow the unit to cool.
- USB device does not charge: Try a different USB cable. Ensure the jump starter has adequate charge.
