4. Operating Instructions

Charging Options for the Unit:

The unit can be charged using one of three methods:

• From a Car Battery (12V, 7A): Connect the smart jumper cables to a car battery with at least 8V. The unit will fully charge in approximately 3 minutes.
• From a DC Charger (12V, 5A): Connect the unit to a DC charger. Full charge in approximately 3 minutes.
• From a USB-Type C Port (5V, 2A): Connect the unit to a USB-Type C power source. Full charge in approximately 30 minutes.

Jump-Starting Your Vehicle:

The unit supports two start modes: Standard Start and Forced Start.

Standard Start (for partially powered car battery):

1. Connect the smart jumper cables to the OBDMATE JSC7100 unit.
2. Connect the red clamp to the positive (+) terminal of your car battery and the black clamp to the negative (-) terminal.
3. The unit will begin to charge from your car battery. Wait for the LCD display to show 100% charge (approx. 3 minutes).
4. Press the power button on the jump starter.
5. Turn on your car's ignition to start the engine.

Forced Start (for extremely low car battery voltage):

If your car battery voltage is extremely low (below 8V), the unit must be fully charged from another power source (another car battery, DC charger, or USB-C) before attempting a Forced Start.

1. Ensure the jump starter unit is fully charged.
2. Connect the smart jumper cables to the OBDMATE JSC7100 unit.
3. Connect the red clamp to the positive (+) terminal of your car battery and the black clamp to the negative (-) terminal.
4. Press and hold the power button on the jump starter for 6 seconds. The unit will initiate a 10-second countdown and emit a long beep.
5. Within the 10-second countdown, turn on your car's ignition to start the engine.

LCD Display:

The integrated LCD screen provides real-time information:

• Vehicle Voltage: Displays the voltage of the connected car battery.
• Power Percentage: Shows the current charge level of the jump starter unit.
• Status Indicators: Provides visual cues for charging status and readiness.

5. Maintenance

The OBDMATE JSC7100's super capacitor technology requires minimal maintenance:

• Storage: Store the unit in a cool, dry place. Due to its battery-free design, it does not require periodic recharging during storage.
• Cleaning: Wipe the unit with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Temperature Range: The unit is designed to operate and be stored within temperatures from -22°F (-30°C) to 140°F (60°C).
