EXPERT MODE

DANGER ! – EXPERT-MODE
(Only to be used by qualified persons! Exercise extreme caution!)
If the car battery is absolutely discharged (voltage lower than 3V), the device cannot identify the battery and boost
it. In this case the EXPERT-MODE can be activated by pressing the START-button for 5 seconds (LCD
display will show countdown, then press START-button again for confirmation): The device behaves now
as a Li-Ion-battery - 12V and max. 300A are now available directly to its clamps (for jumpstarting or other
purposes).
WARNING: SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION AND THE AUTOMATIC SWITCH-OFF-FUNCTION (AFTER
REMOVING THE CLAMPS), DEACTIVATE IN EXPERT-MODE !
JUMP-STARTING YOUR CAR (12V ONLY !)
NOTE: Read your car´s owner's manual! Some vehicle manufacturers have special requirements before
jumpstarting the vehicle (e.g. fuses that have to be removed or certain security demands). Some vehicles
manufacturers place the battery in the cargo area or trunk. These vehicles often have designated jump-start
terminals.
1. Preparation: Make sure there's no oxide or dirt on the vehicle battery's terminal.
2. Check the battery capacity (10) (more than 3 bars or 12.8V are required for the unit to work properly)
3. Connect the red (+)
4. Connect the black (–) clamp to your vehicle´s negative (-) battery terminal (GND)
5. Check whether the ATTENTION (8)-icon appears. If no error occurs, press the START-Button (required for
each start attempt) and wait until the device is ready to jump-start your car (icon 11 appears).
6. Start your car. If the jump-start fails, check all connections and repeat the last step.
7. Turn off the device (POWER-Switch (6) OFF) and disconnect the black and the red clamps. (For your security:
Disconnecting the clamps will turn off the device, too.)
