Moving to the left of the AC recharge port are three LEDs, called the Battery Status Display, and
a Battery Status Pushbutton. Pressing the pushbutton turns on the Battery Status Display. The
pushbutton is pressed to check the battery level at any time. During AC recharge, the display is
automatically active. During DC recharge, the display pushbutton can be periodically pressed
to monitor the recharge process.
The colors of the three Battery Status Display LEDs are two red and one green. During AC
recharge, the Battery Status Display is active to indicate the level of charge on the battery. The
leftmost red LED indicates minimum charge on the battery. Recharge the battery when a single
LED is the only one that lights. The center LED (red) indicates moderate charge on the battery.
The green LED on the right indicates when the battery is FULL and you can stop charging.
To the left of the Battery Status Pushbutton is a work light. This provides the user with light while
changing a tire, and connecting battery clamps. The work light is a long lasting lamp and will
continuously operate for 32 hours from a fully charged battery. To the left of the Work light is
the ON/Off rocker switch that controls operation of the work light.
Above the work light switch is a 12 Volt Accessory Socket. It is covered with a rubber protective
cap. The cap keeps dust, dirt and moisture out of the socket. When the cap is lifted, the
accessory socket can be used for powering 12 volt appliances that draw up to 15 amps current.
This socket is also used during DC recharge.

1.2 USES OF START-IT COMPACT
- Jumpstart (using heavy duty battery cable and clamps):
Most batteries of engines with a standard 12 volt DC battery system: boat, small truck, car,
airplane, RV, personal watercraft, snowmobile, tractor, etc.
- Operate (using 15 ampere rated 12 Volt Accessory Socket): 12-volt DC Fans, fluorescent
work lights, air compressors, spotlights, TVs, portable radios, cassette or CD players, and
more. The unit can quick-charge a cellular phone by using the phone’s 12-volt DC
adapter cord.
- Illuminate areas: under the hood, inside tents, work areas while changing tires, etc.
NOTE: Other Vector appliances may also be used with this jump starter as long as they do not
exceed the 15 ampere limit of the jump starter’s cigarette lighter type socket.
