Jump Starting a vehicle:
Please see the Weego Quick Start Guide for step-by-step procedures on how
to jump your vehicle.
Many of us have had the dreaded experience of returning to our vehicles
only to find they will not start. Most of the time the culprit is a dead or drained
battery for which we needed to call for help or flag down a fellow driver.
By owning a Weego Jump Starter you have everything you need to jump start
a vehicle - no need to wait for help to arrive, Weego to the rescue!
We know you’re excited, but before jumping your vehicle please be sure to
take some precautionary steps:
• Read your vehicle owner’s manual first as the manufacturer may have spe-
cific steps and precautions that pertain to your vehicle.
• Thoroughly follow the Weego Quick Start Guide and review the Weego
Owner’s Manual.
• Make sure you are in a dry, well-ventilated area. Never jump start a vehicle in an
enclosed area.
• Remove any and all moisture from your Weego unit and accessories, as
well as your vehicle’s battery. NEVER attempt to jump start a vehicle when
moisture is present.
• Check that the vehicle’s battery terminals are clean to ensure the best
conductivity.
• Properly identify the vehicle battery’s positive and negative terminals before
connecting the clamps.
• When using the clamps, DO NOT allow the metal teeth of the clamps to
touch one another. This is a short circuit which could cause a spark and may
compromise your clamps.
• When using the clamps, DO NOT connect the RED clamp to the vehicle
battery’s negative (-) terminal, or the BLACK clamp to the vehicle battery’s
positive (+) terminal. This will cause a reversal of polarity, and could compro-
mise your clamps.
• When connecting the Weego clamps to the battery terminals, please ensure
that you have a secure connection. The copper teeth of the clamp should be
securely attached to the metallic portion of the terminal. The better the connec-
tion, the easier it will be so start your vehicle.
NOTE: When adjusting the clamps please be sure to first disconnect the
