INTRODUCTION  
®
Congratulations on selecting the VECTOR JUMP-STARTER and 12 VOLT DC POWER  
SUPPLY. This compact jump-starter is unique in the amount of energy it can supply for  
its size. The internal battery is a high density sealed, lead-acid battery that stores and  
delivers energy comparable to full sized ordinary jump-starters. Please read this  
guide carefully before use to ensure optimum performance and avoid damage to the  
unit or items that you are using it with.  
®
The VECTOR JUMP-STARTER & 12 VOLT DC POWER SUPPLY is a compact, durable  
and portable jump-start system for vehicles and boats that have a standard 12 Volt  
battery system. This self-contained, rechargeable system will start most vehicles and  
boats without the need for a host vehicle or 110/120 Volt AC power supply. It  
can also be used as a safe, portable source of 12 Volt DC electric power in remote  
locations and/or emergency situations. It is ideal for use with Vector 12 Volt DC  
cordless, portable, rechargeable products and MAXXSST DC/AC Power Inverters.  
Use the VECTOR JUMP-START SYSTEM to:  
Jump-start any engine system with a standard 12 Volt DC battery: boat; truck; car; air-  
plane; RV; personal watercraft; snowmobile; garden tractor; gasoline engine  
generator, etc.  
Operate: 12 Volt DC fans, inflators, fluorescent worklights, cellular phones (can  
quick-charge a cellular phone by using the phone’s 12 Volt DC adapter cord),  
spotlights, TVs, portable radios, cassette or CD players, and more.  
Operate: Certain 110/120 Volt AC Accessories (requires a Vector 12 volt power  
inverter, sold separately).  
The JUMP-START SYSTEM has an easy-to-read series of LED (Light Emitting Diode)  
charge indicators that show when the unit is fully charged, or the level of charge in  
the battery. Charge level can be viewed when the charge status push button is  
pressed. A 12 Volt DC power accessory socket is provided for use with appliances  
that can operate from a vehicle 12 Volt DC accessory outlet. This allows maximum  
portability and utility when the Jump-Start Sytem is used in remote locations.  
The Jump-Start System can be recharged from any standard 110/120 Volt AC power  
source using the supplied AC Recharge Adapter. The adapter barrel connector  
attaches to the Recharge Port on the top panel of the jump-starter. A built-in 12 Volt  
appliance socket and the appropriate DC/DC charging/adapter cord is used to  
recharge the battery from another 12 Volt DC source. When pressed, the CHARGE  
STATUS button will show the battery power level status (from Low to Full). The green  
LED full indicator illuminates when the unit is fully recharged and charging can be  
discontinued. An ON/OFF switch operates the built-in work/emergency light.

2.1 EASY, STEP-BY-STEP JUMP-STARTING INSTRUCTIONS  
This jump-starter is equipped with an automatic ON/OFF that only allows jump-  
start energy to flow when proper connections are made to battery and frame. The  
automatic ON/OFF works in conjunction with an audible reverse polarity alarm  
and a large red LED. If inadvertent reverse polarity occurs, the alarm will sound  
and the red LED will light. Disconnect the black clamp (negative clamp) first, then  
the red clamp. Reconnect properly and a green LED will light. Wait one minute  
and then turn the key. To recap:  
CONNECT – Red clamp first, then black clamp.  
DISCONNECT – Black clamp first, then red clamp.  
1. Turn OFF vehicle ignition and all accessories (radio, A/C, lights, cell phone,  
etc.). Place vehicle in park and set the emergency brake.  
2. Remove booster clamps from clamp holster.  
3. Procedure for jump-starting a NEGATIVE GROUNDED SYSTEM (NEGATIVE  
BATTERY TERMINAL IS CONNECTED TO CHASSIS).  
3a. Connect positive (+) red clamp to vehicle battery’s positive terminal.  
3b. Connect negative (-) black clamp to chassis or a solid, non-moving, metal  
vehicle component or body part. Never clamp directly to negative battery  
terminal or moving part. If the audible alarm sounds, the polarity is not correct.  
Reverse the connections.  
4. Procedure for jump-starting POSITIVE GROUND SYSTEMS (NOTE: In the rare  
event that the vehicle to be started has a Positive Grounded System (positive  
battery terminal is connected to chassis) replace steps 3a and 3b above with  
steps 4a and 4b, then proceed to steps 5 through 7 below.  
4a.Connect negative (-) black clamp to vehicle battery’s negative terminal  
4b. Connect positive (+) red clamp to vehicle chassis or a solid, non-moving,  
metal vehicle component or body part. DO NOT CLAMP DIRECTLY TO POSITIVE  
BATTERY TERMINAL OR MOVING PART  
5. A five (5) second delay is built into this jump-starter unit after the clamp connections  
are made. This delay is designed to reduce the possibility of sparking upon  
connection. We recommend waiting one (1) minute after making the clamp  
connections prior to attempting to start vehicle.  
6. Start vehicle (do not turn key for longer than 3-5 seconds).  
7. After vehicle starts, remove clamps (disconnect the frame or engine clamp first,  
followed by the battery cable) and replace them in the built-in storage holsters.  
Squeeze the handles and slide the clamp into position and release your grip.  
CAUTION:  
1. If engine fails to start, leave ignition key turned off and disconnect the negative  
(-) clamp first, then the positive (+) clamp. Try again later – the engine may be  
flooded.  
2. Recharge jump-start system after each use.  
WARNING:  
Always disconnect the engine or frame jumper clamp first; followed by the battery  
jumper clamp  
There is a risk of explosive gases being released when batteries are charged or  
discharged, failure to follow instructions may cause property damage, explosive  
hazard, and/or personal injury.
