Jump-Starter - Stanley Fatmax PPRH5DS Instruction Manual

The bars on the battery icon represent the capacity level of the unit's internal battery. After 5 seconds, the backlight will
shut off and the LCD screen will display the following to indicate that the unit is charging:
+

Compressor
–
The bars on the battery icon will change from empty to solid (bottom to top) repeatedly to indicate the unit is charging.
2. Charge for approximately 40 hours. The unit is fully charged when the battery icon shows 4 solid bars.
3. When charging is complete, unplug the 120 volt AC charger from the AC outlet, then disconnect the barrel connector from
the 12 volt DC charging port. Store the charger in a dry, safe place.
12 Volt DC Charging Method
The DC recharging method will NOT recharge the unit as effectively as recharging from 120 volt AC. The 12 volt DC recharging
procedure is recommended only when it is necessary, since frequent use of the 12 volt DC recharging procedure may shorten
the battery system's life.
Charging the unit from an external 12 volt DC power source requires the use of the 12 Volt DC adapter. This adapter has a male
DC connector at each end.
1. Insert the large grooved tip of the 12 Volt DC Charging Adapter into the vehicle's 12 volt DC accessory outlet.
2. Insert the small silver colored tip into the 12 volt DC accessory outlet on the front panel of the unit.
3. Charge the unit until the battery icon shows full when the battery power level button is pressed (with the adapter
unplugged from the unit). DO NOT CHARGE MORE THAN 6 HOURS MAXIMUM USING THIS METHOD.
4. When charging is complete, remove the charging cord and store in a safe place.
Notes:
Some vehicles require that the ignition be switched to the accessory outlet position in order to power the accessory outlet.
Do not leave the unit unattended when charging using the this method.

JUMP-STARTER

This unit is equipped with a jump starter on/off button that allows energy to flow only when proper connections are made to
battery and frame. Take the following steps, observing all cautions and warnings in the "Important Safety Instructions" section
at the front of this manual.
1. Turn off vehicle ignition and all accessories (radio, A/C, lights, connected cell phone chargers, etc.). Place vehicle in "park"
and set the emergency brake.
2. Make sure the jump-starter power switch is in the off position.
3. Remove jumper clamps from clamp tabs. Connect the red clamp first, then the black clamp.
4. Procedure for jump-starting a NEGATIVE GROUNDED SYSTEM (negative battery terminal is connected to chassis)
(MOST COMMON)
4a. Connect positive (+) red clamp to vehicle battery' s positive terminal.
4b. Connect negative (–) black clamp to chassis or a solid, non-moving, metal vehicle component or body part. Never clamp
directly to negative battery terminal or moving part. Refer to the automobile owner' s manual.
5. Procedure for jump-starting POSITIVE GROUND SYSTEMS
Note:
In the rare event that the vehicle to be started has a Positive Grounded System (positive battery terminal is connected to chassis), replace steps 4a
and 4b above with steps 5a and 5b, then proceed to step 6.
5a. Connect negative (–) black clamp to vehicle battery' s negative terminal.
5b. Connect positive (+) red clamp to vehicle chassis or a solid, non-moving, metal vehicle component or body part. Never
clamp directly to positive battery terminal or moving part. Refer to the automobile owner' s manual.
6. When the clamps are connected properly, press the jump-starter on/off button. The backlit LCD screen will display the
following to indicate the unit is ready to jump-start:

Disconnect clamps and reconnect to battery with correct polarity.
7. After the engine starts, rotate the jump-starter power switch to the off position to turn the unit off.
8. Disconnect the negative (–) engine or chassis clamp first, then disconnect the positive (+) battery clamp.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOUND IN THE "SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR JUMP STARTERS" SECTION OF THIS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
• Never touch red and black clamps together — this can cause dangerous sparks, power arcing, and/or explosion.
• Always turn the unit off when not in use.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before jump-starting
this type of vehicle, read the vehicle manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is advised.
• Excessive engine cranking can damage the vehicle's starter motor. If the engine fails to start after the recommended number
of attempts, discontinue jump-start procedure and look for other problems that need to be corrected.
• If the connections to the battery's positive and negative terminals are incorrect, the LCD screen will display as shown in the
second part of step 6 of the directions. Disconnect clamps and reconnect to battery with correct polarity.
• If vehicle fails to start, turn off the ignition, turn off the Jump-Starter Power Switch, disconnect the jump-start system's leads
and contact a qualified technician to investigate why the engine did not start.
• Recharge this unit fully after each use.
AREA LIGHT
The built-in 2-LED area light is controlled by the area light on/off button on the control panel. Press the area light on/off button
once to turn the light on. Press the area light on/off button again to turn the area light off. Make sure the lamp and the unit
are turned off when the unit is being recharged or stored.
IMPORTANT: When either the area light button or the battery power level button has been pressed, the backlit LCD screen
displays the unit's battery status:

Four solid bars in the battery icon indicates a full battery. One bar indicates that the unit needs to be recharged.
120 VOLT AC PORTABLE POWER SUPPLY
Rated Versus Actual Current Draw of Equipment
Most electrical tools, appliances, electronic devices and audio/visual equipment have labels that indicate the power consumption
in amps or watts. Be sure that the power consumption of the item to be operated is below 500 watts. If the power
consumption is rated in amps AC, simply multiply by the AC volts (120) to determine the wattage.
Resistive loads are the easiest for this unit to run; however, it will not run larger resistive loads (such as electric stoves and
heaters), which require far more wattage than the unit can deliver on a continuous basis. Inductive loads (such as TVs and
stereos) require more current to operate than do resistive loads of the same wattage rating.
CAUTION: RECHARGEABLE DEVICES
• Certain rechargeable devices are designed to be charged by plugging them directly into an AC receptacle. These devices may
damage the inverter or the charging circuit.
• When using a rechargeable device, monitor its temperature for the initial ten minutes of use to determine if it produces
excessive heat.
