3. CHARGING/RECHARGING

For maximum battery life, we recommend that the START-IT
remain in a discharged state, battery life may be shortened. Note: Recharging battery after each use will prolong battery life; frequent
discharges between recharges will reduce battery life.

IMPORTANT:
! MAKE SURE SAFETY ON/OFF SWITCH IS IN OFF POSITION DURING RECHARGING.
! Charge unit until full (can take up to 24 hours)
! Recharge unit fully after each use.

3.2 12-Volt DC Charging

TM
The START-IT system also comes with a DC/DC charging cord, for recharging the unit from the 12-volt DC cigarette lighter socket
in a vehicle or boat. Note: This recharging method will NOT recharge the unit as effectively as recharging from a 110/120-volt AC
outlet. The 12-volt DC recharging procedure is recommended only when it is necessary, as continued use of the 12-volt DC recharging
procedure may shorten the battery system*s life.
WARNING: DO NOT RECHARGE FOR MORE THAN 3-4 HOURS MAXIMUM USING 12-VOLT DC METHOD.
1. NOTE: If unit is fully discharged, it is recommended that the vehicle being used for recharging with engine running while the unit
