Protective Features
• Automatic Overload — Built-in protection against overload — in the event the
AC outlet draws more than 400 watts, power to the unit's outlet will automatically
shut off.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) — The GFCI protects the unit and the
user by sensing imbalances in a circuit caused by current leakage to the ground
and shuts down the unit's AC outlet to prevent electrical shock.
• Overheating — Unit automatically shuts down if it exceeds a safe temperature.
• Safety Power Switch and Reverse Polarity Alarm — In the event the
cables/clamp connections are reversed during jump-starting, an indicator lights
and an alarm sounds BEFORE the Power Switch is turned ON.
• Low Battery — If the battery power level is too low, the AC Power Supply shuts
down automatically.

AC AND DC CHARGING/RECHARGING

Use a common household AC extension cord for charging (cord not supplied).
For maximum battery life, we recommend the unit be kept fully charged at all times.
If the battery is allowed to remain in a discharged state, battery life will be shortened.
• MAKE SURE ALL SWITCHES ARE TURNED OFF DURING RECHARGING.
• FULLY CHARGE THE UNIT USING THE 120 VOLT AC CHARGING METHOD
BEFORE FIRST USE.
• Recharge the unit fully after each use.
• Recharge the unit every two months when it has not been used regularly.
Notes:
Recharging the battery after each use prolongs battery life; frequent
discharges between recharges reduces battery life.
The Power Center also comes with a 12 Volt DC charging adapter for
recharging the unit from a 12 volt DC accessory outlet in a vehicle.
If unit is fully discharged, it is recommended that the vehicle being used for
recharging be left running while the unit is charged via the 12 volt DC
method.

Viewing Battery Charge Status

Press the Battery Charge Level pushbutton to display battery status. The Battery
Charge Level Indicator LEDS will light.
LEDs (from right to left):
• One Red LED indicates a low battery charge
• Two or three Red LEDs indicate a medium level or partially charged battery
• Three Red and one Green LEDs indicates a full or high
level battery charge.
