AC AND DC CHARGING/RECHARGING
FULLY CHARGE THE UNIT USING THE 120 VOLT AC CHARGING METHOD
FOR A FULL 14 TO 16 HOURS BEFORE FIRST USE.
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.
• Recharge the unit fully after each use; and recharge the unit every two months when
it has not been used regularly.
• If the unit is used for an extended period after the red LED indicator lights,
recharging could take up to 20 hours and battery life may be shortened.
Notes:
Recharging the battery after each use prolongs battery life; frequent
discharges between recharges reduces battery life.
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 Level Status
Press the Battery Charge Level Pushbutton to display charge level status. The Battery
Charge Level Indicator LEDs will light.
LEDs (from left to right):
• One Red LED indicates a low battery charge
• Two Red LEDs indicate a medium level or partially charged battery
• Two Red and one Green LEDs indicates a full or high level battery charge.
120 Volt AC Charging
1. Insert the supplied 120 Volt AC Recharging Adapter into the
120 Volt AC Recharge Adapter Barrel Connector Port located
next to the Battery Charge Level LED Indicators.
2. Plug the adapter into a standard North American120 volt AC
electrical outlet.
3. Charge until two Red and one Green LEDs light.
4. Once fully charged, disconnect the adapter.
Note:
The unit cannot be overcharged using this method.
12 Volt DC Charging
1. Insert the 12 Volt DC Recharging Adapter into the unit's 12
Volt DC Accessory/Recharge Port.
2. Insert the other end into the vehicle accessory outlet (or other
12 volt DC power source).
3. To check the charge level status of the battery during DC
charging, disconnect the DC adapter from the accessory
outlet and push the Battery Charge Level pushbutton. Observe
the battery charge indicator.
4. When charging is complete, disconnect the adapter.
WARNING
Do not recharge for more than 5-6 hours maximum using the 12 volt
DC method.
