3.4 Operating 12-Volt DC Products

1. Ensure the internal battery is fully charged. (See Section

8 for details.)

2. Plug the accessory into the DC Power Socket, and switch

the accessory on (if required). Portable Power 250 will

operate any 12-volt DC auto or marine accessory that

draws 12 amps or less.

3. Because the DC Power Socket is internally wired direct to

the internal battery, extended operation of a 12-volt

accessory may result in excessive battery discharge.

Important: Care must be taken to ensure the battery does

not become totally discharged. (See Section 6.1 for

details.)

3.5 Recharging Jazz Portable Power 250

1. The battery’s charge level may be seen by pressing the

Battery Status Button on the front of the product.

2. To recharge, plug the AC Charger into a household AC

outlet and plug the AC Charger cord into the Charger

Input Socket located below the AC outlet. The Recharge

Indicator will change from amber to green when charging

is complete (about 35 hours). It is safe (and

recommended) to leave the AC Charger connected when

Portable Power 250 is stored.

3. Charging may also be done from the 12-volt outlet or

lighter socket in a vehicle. (See Section 8.3 for details.)
