USE
Charging the unit (fig. A)
This unit is shipped in a partially charged state.
Charge the unit before first use using the mains
charging adaptor (8) for 48 hours.
Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a
full charge and a long battery life. All batteries lose energy
from self-discharge over time and more rapidly at higher
temperatures. When the unit is not in use, Black & Decker
recommend that the battery is charged at least every 60
days.
Check the battery charge level by pressing the battery
status pushbutton (11). The LED charge status display
(13) will indicate the level of battery charge. When only
one red LED lights, charge the unit.
Note: Charging the battery after each use will prolong the
battery life; frequent heavy discharges between charges
and/or overcharging will reduce battery life.
The battery can be charged using the mains charging
adaptor (8).
Charging the unit with the mains charger (fig. A)
Make sure that the ON/OFF switch (9) and the LED area light
(10) are turned off while the unit is being charged.
As charging progresses, the red LEDs will light one by one.
Charge the unit until the green FULL LED lights.
Continue to charge for one to two more hours.
Note: The mains charging should not be connected for more
than 60 hours.
When charging is complete, disconnect the mains
charging adaptor (8) and store it in a safe place.
Using the unit as a jump-starter (fig. A)
Warning! Make sure that the vehicle is in neutral with the
parking brake applied.
Note: If your connections are incorrectly made, the unit will
beep continuously and the red reverse polarity indicator (6)
will illuminate, even if the ON/OFF switch (9) is in the OFF
position. Rectify the connections immediately.
Warning! Make sure that the cables are not in the path of
moving belts or the fan.
