Jump-Starting a Vehicle’s Engine

To jump-start a vehicle or boat engine:

1. Turn off the vehicle or boat ignition and all accessories.

2. Engage the park or emergency brake and place the

transmission in park for an automatic or neutral for a

manual.

3. If jump-starting a boat engine, purge the engine

compartment and bilge of all fumes before jump-starting.

4. Position the Duracell® Powerpack on a flat, stable

surface near the battery and away from all moving parts

of the engine.

Ensure that the jump-starting power switch is

OFF.

5. Connect the red positive (+) clamp of the cables to the

positive (+) terminal of the engine battery.

The battery’s positive terminal is usually larger in

diameter than the negative terminal. In most vehicles, the

battery’s positive terminal has a red wire connected to it.

6. Connect the black negative (–) clamp of the cables to the

engine block, cylinder head, or other stationary heavy

metal part of the motor.

If the Red Jumpstart Connection LED illuminates and the

Duracell® Powerpack’s alarm sounds, then reverse

polarity has been detected. Correct polarity must be

established before proceeding. Disconnect the jump-start

clamps from the vehicle’s battery and redo steps 5 and 6

in this procedure.

WARNING: Fire hazard

Jump-start cable clamps’ connection to the vehicle’s battery

terminals must be positive to positive (red clamp to battery “+”)

and negative to engine block. A reverse polarity connection

(positive to negative) may cause damage to the unit and/or create a

sparking/explosion hazard.

Important: Closely follow these instructions for jump-starting

your vehicle as they may be different from the instructions

supplied with other jump-starting products or jump-start cables.
