Step Instruction Display
1The PJ-IS1400-2 jump starter should be charged for around 5 hours prior to first
use and as soon as possible after each use.
2If the PJ-IS1400-2 jump starter has been fully charged, step 3 can be skipped.

OFF.
5On a Negative grounded vehilcle, connect to the positive battery post and a battery
ground. Connect the red positive (+) clamp to the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle
battery, then connect the black negative (-) clamp to the negative (-) terminal of the
battery or a non-moving metal part of the engine block.
Make sure to connect clamps firmly to battery posts to maximize jump start current and
the battery posts are clean from grease and dust build-up.

battery.
RRT (Rapid Recharge Technology) may take more than 40 seconds depending how
depleted the jump starter battery is.

(-) clamp from the negative battery pole of the battery. Disconnect the red positive (+)
clamp from the positive battery pole of the battery.
