7 Troubleshooting
Problem Cause Remedy
| The power capacity of the device is shown at 100%, but did not fully charge in charging process. | This situation can occur when the device is in a semi-state of charge, which is conducive to long-term storage when the device is not in use for long time. | Pull out the charge plug, then reinsert. |
| The device is defective. Contact a service centre. | ||
| Nothing happens when switching the device on, display stays dark. | Low voltage protection of the device is active and the device can not be turned on. | Insert the charger plug into the 9V/2A input port to activate. |
| The display is defective. Contact a service centre. | ||
| Red LED on the intelligent battery clamp at the intelligent battery clamp is flashing. | A flashing red LED on the inelligent battery clamp indicates that a safety function is active. | See table in chapter “Protective functions” on page 17. |
7.1 Protective functions
| Details | |
| Low voltage protectionRed LED flashing, buzzer active | Jump starter battery voltage is below 10.5VPower output is cut off automatically. |
| Reverse polarity protectionRed LED flashing, buzzer active | Clamps are not connected properly (reversed)Power output is prevented. |
| Short circuit protectionRed LED flashing, buzzer active | When both camps are connected together(short circuit).Power output is prevented. |
| Reverse charging protectionRed LED flashing | Higher voltage of vehicle's battery than thejump starter, normally when vehicle has startedPower output is prevented. |
| Automatic power shut offRed LED flashing | After normal output, if no further operationoccurs for 60 seconds, the clamps will automatically turn off. |
