JUMP-STARTING YOUR VEHICLE WITH THE HALO BOLT 57720
- Plug the jumper cables into the jump start output on the HALO BOLT.
NOTE:
Make sure the jumper cables are fully plugged into the jump start output before
trying to jump your vehicle.
- Attach the jumper cable clamps to the vehicle battery.
- Red clamp on positive terminal (+)
- Black clamp on negative terminal (-)
NOTE: Do not touch red (positive) and black (negative) clamps together at any point. If the jump start button flashes red, the jumper cables have been connected incorrectly. If this flashing red condition occurs, disconnect the jumper cables from the HALO BOLT and vehicle battery and restart the process from step 1.
- Press the “Jump Start” button and wait for the solid green light.
NOTE: A pulsing green light indicates safety checks are in progress.
- Start your vehicle
NOTE: The HALO BOLT will allow 3 consecutive jump-start attempts after each time you press the jump-start button. You must allow up to 15 seconds between each jump-start attempt. During the 15 seconds, the jump start button will flash green while the HALO BOLT performs its safety checks. Once the jump start button illuminates solid green, the HALO BOLT is ready for the next jump start attempt.
If the vehicle has not successfully started after turning the key (or pressing the engine start push button) 3 times, disconnect the jumper cables from the HALO BOLT and the vehicle battery and restart the process from step 1.
- Disconnect the jumper cable clamps from the car battery.
NOTE: While jump-starting your vehicle, you cannot charge your electronic devices, and/or you cannot charge the HALO BOLT via the AC wall charging adapter.
- Remove jumper cables from the Halo Jump Start Output and close the cover.
