IMPORTANT
If you keep the jump-starter in storage, the battery will discharge over time. Remember to
recharge the battery every three months to keep the jump-starter operational.
7. Maintenance
Routine maintenance is required to keep your Duracell® jump-starter operating properly.
Occasionally clean the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth to remove the accumulated dust
and dirt.
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect all sources of AC power and DC power before performing any type of
maintenance.
► Battery maintenance
All rechargeable batteries gradually discharge when left standing, and you need to recharge
them periodically to maintain maximum battery capacity. The internal AC battery charger
supplied with the jump-starter is designed to regulate the charging process, ensuring that
the battery is always fully charged but never overcharged. To ensure safe recharging and
maximum battery life, recharge the jump-starter only with the supplied charger.
CAUTION
Due to inherent self-discharge, lead acid batteries must be charged at least every 3
months, especially in a warm environment. Leaving a battery in a discharged state, or not
recharging every 3 months, may result in permanent battery damage and poor jump-
starting performance.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to recharge the jump-starter battery if it is frozen. Gradually warm the
frozen battery to 32 °F (0 °C) before recharging.
8. Using the air compressor
IMPORTANT: Please read these general usage-related warnings and
cautions thoroughly before using the Jump-starter’s air compressor.
Fire Safety
The compressor is designed for short term operation only. Operating the compressor over an
extended period of time will cause the compressor unit to overheat which could lead to re.
The powerpack cannot be used to inate large capacity inatables such as oat tubes, large
air mattresses, and inatable boats. These types of products require extended inating times
that may damage the compressor.
Always allow the compressor to cool down for 10 minutes after each 10 minutes of continuous
operation.
Personal Safety
Never leave the compressor unattended while in operation. Keep out of reach of children.
The compressor is capable of inating to 160 PSI. Do not exceed the recommended pressure
of either the compressor or the object being inated. If either recommended pressure is
exceeded, an explosion
may result.
If the pressure gauge on the compressor indicates more than twice the recommended
pressure for the object you are inating, and you have only started to inate the object, the
valve connector is incorrectly connected to the valve stem. This may damage the Jump-starter.
Remove and reattach the valve connector to the valve stem.

3. Charging/Recharging the Jump-starter
► Charging before rst use
IMPORTANT
Prior to using the jump-starter for the rst time, ensure that the battery of the jump-starter
is fully charged. If the battery has been fully discharged, charging/recharging with the AC
battery charger may take up to 12 hours.
► Charging / recharging with the internal charger
Recharging with the internal charger is a true “plug-in-and-forget” charging method. We
recommend leaving the AC battery charger connected when the jump-starter is not in use.
1. Disconnect any USB and 12V DC appliances from the DC power outlets.
2. Remove the AC cord from the storage compartment under the unit.
3. Insert the AC cord end into the AC cord input port, then plug AC cord into a standard AC
wall outlet.
4. The fuel gauge LEDs sequence during charging and remain solid on when fully charged.
5. Recharging time should be approximately 12 hours if the jump-starter battery is fully
discharged.
IMPORTANT
If you keep the jump-starter in storage, the battery will discharge over time. Remember to
recharge the battery every three months to keep the jump-starter operational.
4. Checking the Jump-starter’s Battery Level
To check the battery’s charge level, press the Fuel Gauge button. The LED lights will illuminate
and display the current level of available battery power. Press again to turn off (or will turn off
automatically after one minute).
When all four lights are lit, this indicates that your Jump-starter is fully charged. It is
recommended to maintain a full charge on the Jump-starter at all times for optimal jump
starting and device charging.
Note: Battery Fuel Gauge status is only accurate when the jump-starter has been
disconnected from all appliances and all charging sources for 15 minutes.
5. Using The Jump-starter’s Light / Power Ports
