6.1 Jump Starting a Vehicle

Ensure the jump starter is at least 50% charged.
Turn off the vehicle's ignition and all accessories.
Connect the red (+) clamp to the vehicle's positive (+) battery terminal.
Connect the black (-) clamp to the vehicle's negative (-) battery terminal or a solid, unpainted metal part of the engine block.
Plug the smart clamp connector into the jump starter's port. The indicator light on the smart clamp should turn green, indicating a correct connection. If it's red or flashing, check connections and battery voltage.
Start the vehicle. If it doesn't start immediately, wait 30 seconds before trying again. Do not crank for more than 3 seconds per attempt.
Once the vehicle starts, immediately disconnect the smart clamp connector from the jump starter.
Remove the black (-) clamp first, then the red (+) clamp from the vehicle battery.

6.2 Using the Air Compressor (Ep177 Model Only)

The Ep177 model features a built-in air compressor capable of delivering up to 150PSI.
