TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem: 1 or 2 red lights come on, charger is plugged in for 24 hours and there is
no change in status of lights.
Answer: Check charger to see if it is charging. Charger should be warm.
Problem: Charger works well but still no change in status of lights when the wall
charger is connected to the Booster PAC (yellow light is on).
Answer: Possible defective battery or faulty breaker. Try using a device (light, TV,
etc.) with a 12V plug on it to see if it works. If it operates, the Booster
PAC breaker is OK and the battery is the problem.
Problem: All of the lights come on when the charger is plugged into the Booster
PAC, but when the charger is unplugged and the test button pressed, no
lights come on.
Answer: Your Booster PAC has a defective battery which must be replaced.
Problem: The Booster PAC is fully charged but has no power.
Answer: Check where the wire meets the jaw on the Booster PAC clamp. Make
sure they are well crimped.
Problem: When trying to use an accessory through the 12 Volt outlet on the
Booster PAC, I heard a clicking sound coming from inside the Booster
PAC.
Answer: The accessory is drawing too many amps, causing the internal circuit
breaker to cycle ON and OFF. There may be a problem with the
accessory (such as a short circuit) that is causing the overload condition.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Question: How many jump starts can a fully charged Booster PAC perform before
needing to be recharged?
Answer: 1 to 30. Factors impacting this are temperature, general condition of the
vehicle being jump started, engine type and size.
Question: Can the Booster PAC's battery be replaced?
Answer: Yes, call Technical Service at (913) 310-1050 (U.S.).
Question: Can the Booster PAC be recycled?
Answer: Yes, the environment was one of our main concerns in the development
and design of the Booster PAC. Most battery outlets can dispose of this
product at its life's end. In fact, your Booster PAC contains a sealed,
non-spillable lead acid battery and proper disposal is required by law.
See Battery Removal and Disposal Instructions.
Question: What is the ideal in-use temperature of the Booster PAC?
Answer: Room temperature. The Booster PAC will also operate at below zero
temperatures, however its power will be reduced. Intense heat will
accelerate self discharge of the Booster PAC battery.
