Can the Vector 1400 amp Jump Starter be used to charge a 12 volt car battery or is it only to be used to jump start?

The Vector JUMP-START SYSTEM is designed to jump-start a 12 Volt DC battery but does not charge it. It provides the power needed to start the engine but does not function as a battery charger.
