The indicator light on the smart clamp will show green if the connection is correct and safe to proceed. If it shows red or flashes, check the connections and battery status.
- Start the Vehicle: Once the smart clamp indicator is green, start your vehicle's engine. If it doesn't start on the first attempt, wait at least 30 seconds before trying again. Do not crank for more than 3 seconds per attempt.
- Disconnect Clamps: As soon as the vehicle starts, immediately remove the smart clamps from the vehicle battery terminals, then disconnect the smart clamps from the jump starter unit.
