Estimated run-times. Actual time may vary. Times are based on the internal
battery being fully charged.
seconds, wait at least 1 minute before
attempting to crank the vehicle again.
This permits the internal battery to
cool down.
9. After engine starts, turn OFF the
PP-18400CI.
10. Disconnect clamps in this order:
NEGATIVE black ( - ) and then POSI-
TIVE red ( + ). Store clamps on each
side of the case.
11. Charge the PP-18400CI as soon as
possible after jump-starting.
In the rare case of jump-
starting a vehicle that has a positive-
grounded vehicle electrical system,
connect the NEGATIVE black clamp
(-) to the negative terminal of the ve-
hicle battery. Then connect the POSI-
TIVE red clamp (+) to an unpainted
and unmoving part of the vehicle
chassis or engine block. If you are
unsure of the nature of the vehicle’s
electrical grounding system, check
the owner’s manual of the vehicle. To
disconnect clamps, reverse order.
The PP-18400CI is a power source for all
12 volt DC accessories equipped with a
12V accessory plug. Ideal for power out-
ages, shing excursions, camping trips,
tailgating parties, etc. Important: Use
accessories requiring no more than 15
amps. If the 12V DC device draws more
than 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip.
If the circuit breaker trips, it will automati-
cally reset.
To operate a 12V DC device:
1. Make sure the device to be powered
is OFF.
2. Open the protective cover of the 12V
DC power outlet on the front panel of
the PP-18400CI.
3. Plug the 12V DC power cord of de-
vice into the 12V DC power outlet,
and turn ON the 12V DC device (if
needed).
4. Charge the PP-18400CI as soon as
possible after each use.
NOTE: Because the DC power out-
let is internally wired directly to the
internal battery, extended operation
of a 12V DC device may result in
excessive battery drain.
