5.1 Jump-Starting a Vehicle

Ensure the jump starter is at least 75% charged before attempting to jump-start a vehicle.

1. Turn off the vehicle's ignition and all accessories (lights, radio, etc.).
2. Connect the red (+) clamp of the smart jumper cables to the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle's battery.
3. Connect the black (-) clamp of the smart jumper cables to the negative (-) terminal of the vehicle's battery or a solid, unpainted metal part of the engine block (ground point).
4. Plug the blue connector end of the smart jumper cables into the Engine Start Port on the jump starter unit. Ensure a secure connection.
5. Check the indicator lights on the smart jumper cable connector. A solid green light indicates a correct connection and readiness to jump-start. If a red light or alarm sounds, check connections for polarity reversal or short circuit.
6. Start the 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.
7. Once the vehicle starts, immediately disconnect the smart jumper cable from the jump starter unit.
