JUMP-STARTING A VEHICLE
WARNING: Vehicles equipped with on-board computers may be affected if the engine battery is jump-started. Read your vehicle owner's manual before attempting to start the vehicle to determine if external starting assistance can be used. Failure to follow these instructions may cause damage or explosion. Use safety glasses to protect eyes while jump-starting a battery.

Turn off the vehicle ignition and all accessories (e.g. radios, lights, air conditioners and cellular phones].
Set the emergency brake and put vehicles with automatic transmission in park position.
Determine the polarity of the vehicle's battery terminals. The positive (POS, P,+) battery terminal usually is larger in diameter than the negative (NEG, N, -) terminal. If you are unsure, you should refer to the vehicle's owner's manual.
Determine whether your vehicle uses a negative or positive grounded system: Negative ground system - Negative battery terminal is grounded to chassis. Most vehicles use this system. Positive grounded battery terminal is grounded to chassis or any other part of the vehicle. If you are unsure, you should refer to vehicle owner's manual.
Access the clamps by pressing clamp handles inward. Pull the clamps downward and remove clamps' from the holders in a downward angle. Never allow clamps (positive & negative terminals) to touch together or to contact the same piece of metal to prevent short-circuits and arcing.
Follow instructions for a negative grounded system or positive grounded system as indicated below
Negative Grounded System
1. Securely connect the positive (+) red clamp to the positive (POS, P+) terminal of the vehicle battery or the remote positive (+) terminal if equipped.
2. Securely connect the negative (-) black clamp to the vehicle chassis, engine block or a non-moving metal part of the vehicle which is verified to be grounded. Do not clamp directly to negative battery terminal, carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet metal body parts.
3. See jump-starting step 7 to continue.
Positive Grounded System
1. Securely connect the negative (-) black clamp to the negative (Neg, N-) ungrounded terminal of the vehicle battery
2. Securely connect the positive (+) red clamp to the vehicle chassis, engine block or a non-moving metal part of the vehicle which is verified to be grounded. Do not clamp directly to positive battery terminal, carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet metal body parts.
3. See jump-starting step 7 to continue.
Set On/Off safety switch to "ON" after clamps are secure on battery post.
Allow 2 or 3 minutes of charging time. It is recommended to have a second person to assist holding the unit securely in place during the next steps.
Turn on the vehicle to attempt to start the engine. If the vehicle does not start after 4 to 5 seconds of engine cranking, then stop. Wait 3 to 4 minutes, and then try again. Repeat several times until the vehicle starts.
CAUTION: Excessive engine cranking can damage vehicle starter motor. If the engine turns, but fails to start after several attempts, other technical problems might be involved. Discontinue cranking the engine until the other problem is determined and corrected.
Standing as far away from the vehicle battery as is practical, disconnect the clamps in reverse sequence to connecting procedure
- For negative grounded systems, first disconnect negative (black) then positive (red) clamps.
- For positive grounded systems, first disconnect positive (red) then negative (black) clamps

USING THE AIR COMPRESSOR

WARNING: Check item to be inflated for manufacturer's maximum recommended inflation pressure. Avoid over inflation. Most tires are properly inflated between 24-35 PSI. Some truck and bicycle tires require 40 PSI or more.
To inflate tires

Remove valve cap from air valve stem.
Note: Make sure locking thumb lever is at up position. If necessary, use valve stem adapter.
Insert stem connector to valve stem. Make sure connector is pushed to valve stem as far as possible.
Press down the locking thumb lever to engage.
Set On/Off safety switch to the “ON” position.
Set the compressor On/Off switch to "ON" position by pressing down the section of switch marked "I".
Note: In the event that the tire’s completely flat, raise the vehicle using a recommended jack before inflating the tire.
Monitor pressure on air pressure gauge.
Note: It is recommended to use a separate air gauge to check the actual inflation pressure. When desired pressure is reached, turn off compressor, turn the locking thumb lever to up position and remove stem connector from valve stem. Also remove valve stem adapter if applicable.
Replace valve cap on valve stem.

To inflate plastic inflatable (balls, air mattresses, rubber rafts, etc.)

Check manufacturer's specification on item to be inflated for correct inflation pressure.
Remove valve cap cover from valve stem.
Insert proper valve stem adapter into stem connector as far as possible and turn the locking thumb lever to down position.
Insert other end of valve stem adapter into inflatable air valve stem as far as practical.
Set On/Off safety switch to the “ON” position.
Set the compressor On/Off switch to "ON" position.
Monitor pressure on air pressure gauge. When desired pressure is reached, turn off compressor, turn the locking thumb lever to up position and remove stem connector from valve stem. Also remove valve stem adapter if applicable. Replace valve cap on valve stem.

DC POWER PORT
DC POWER PORT (accessory socket) is located to the left side of the unit. The port can power a DC load of up to 11 Amps. Overloading the port may result in “tripping” a self-resetting circuit breaker. Removing the overload automatically restores power to the DC Power Port.

Uncover the dust cover from the Power Port.
Insert the 12V DC accessory plug into the Power Port.
Set On/Off safety switch to the “ON” position.
Set the power port On/Off switch to "ON" position by pressing down the section of switch marked "I".
Operate the appliance as usual.
After use, set the power port on/off switch to "off" position by pressing down the section of switch marked "O".
Disconnect the accessory plug from the Power Port and store the accessory.
Replace the Power Port’s dust cover.
Recharge the Power Dome as soon as convenient.

USB POWER PORT
Set On/Off safety switch to the “On” position. A USB Power Port located underneath the charging jack can power/charge devices that require 5Volts at up to 500mA through the use of a user-supplied cord.
STORAGE
This unit may be stored in any position. Make sure the clamps are secure inside the booster cable storage covers. Store at room temperature. If not used for a prolonged period of time, recharge every 2 months in the winter and every month in the summer.
