Specifications

Setup

Initial Charging:

Before first use, fully charge the jump starter. Connect the included Type-C cable to the jump starter's Type-C input port and the other end to a suitable USB wall adapter (not included). The indicator lights will show the charging progress. All lights will be solid when fully charged.

It is recommended to fully charge the unit every 3-6 months to maintain battery health, even if not in use.

Operating Instructions

1. Jump Starting a Vehicle:

Ensure the jump starter is at least 50% charged before attempting to jump start a vehicle.

1. Connect the Cables: Insert the blue plug of the smart jumper cables into the jump starter's 12V output port. Ensure a firm connection.

2. Attach Clamps to Car Battery:
   • Connect the red positive (+) clamp to the vehicle's positive (+) battery terminal.
   • Connect the black negative (-) clamp to the vehicle's negative (-) battery terminal or a solid, unpainted metal part of the engine block.

   The indicator on the smart cable will show the connection status. A solid green light indicates a correct and ready connection.

3. Start Your Vehicle: Once the smart cable indicator is green, start your vehicle's engine. If the vehicle does not start immediately, wait 30 seconds before trying again. Do not crank for more than 3 seconds per attempt.
4. Remove Jumper Cables: As soon as the vehicle starts, remove the black negative (-) clamp first, then the red positive (+) clamp. Finally, disconnect the smart cable from the jump starter.

Force Start Function: If the vehicle battery is completely dead (voltage below 2V) and the smart cable does not show a green light, press and hold the "BOOST" button on the smart cable for 3 seconds until the green light turns solid. This bypasses some safety checks and should only be used when necessary and with extreme caution, ensuring correct polarity.

Image: The jump starter is capable of starting vehicles with up to 7.0L gasoline and 6.5L diesel engines, providing 2000A peak current from its 16000mAh battery.

2. Using as a Power Bank:

The GK-J1202 features multiple USB ports to charge your electronic devices.

• Connect your device's USB charging cable to one of the jump starter's USB-A output ports (one with QC18W for fast charging, another 5V/2.4A) or the Type-C port.
• Press the power button on the jump starter to begin charging.

• Connect your 12V accessory (e.g., car vacuum cleaner, portable refrigerator, air purifier) to the 12V/6A DC output port on the jump starter.
• Ensure the accessory's power consumption does not exceed 6A.
