2. SWITCHES, INDICATORS AND PORTS:

The Safety Power Switch (Figure 1) is located on the upper left side of the panel.When it is
in the OFF position, the cable clamps are not powered and the reverse polarity alarm is
enabled and ready to detect polarity.
Below the Safety Power Switch is an On/Off rocker switch (Figure 1) for the Worklight. The
Worklight is powered when the On/Off rocker switch is On. The Worklight provides the
user with light while changing a tire, and connecting battery clamps. The Worklight is
a long lasting lamp and will continuously operate for three days from a fully
charged battery.
To the right of the rocker switch is the AC Recharge port (Figure 1). It is covered by a
rubber cap that keeps dust, dirt, and moisture out of the socket. The AC Recharge Adapter's
barrel connector plugs into this port during recharge. Moving to the right are three LEDs, a
Battery Status Display, and a pushbutton. Pressing the pushbutton turns on the Battery Status
Display. Press the pushbutton to check the battery level at any time. Also press it
periodically during DC recharge.
The colors of the three LEDs are two red and one green. During AC recharge, the Battery
Status Display is active to indicate the level of charge on the battery. The leftmost red LED
indicates minimum charge on the battery. Recharge the battery when that LED is the only
one lit. The center red LED indicates moderate charge on the battery. The green LED on the
right indicates when the battery is FULL and you can stop charging.
Below the Battery Status Display is a 12 Volt Accessory Socket (Figure 1). It is covered with
a rubber protective cap. The cap keeps dust, dirt and moisture out of the socket. When the
cap is lifted, the accessory socket can be used for powering 12 volt appliances that draw
up to 20 amps current. This socket is also used during DC recharge.
