The Pericat S400 is a versatile jump starter designed to provide reliable power for your vehicle and other electronic devices. This user manual outlines its structure, operation, and essential safety precautions to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
The primary function of the Pericat S400 is to jump-start vehicles with 12V batteries, specifically those with gas engines up to 7.0L and diesel engines up to 5.5L. It delivers a starting current of 500A and a peak current of 1500A, making it capable of reviving a wide range of vehicles. Beyond its jump-starting capabilities, the device also serves as a portable power bank, offering two USB output ports (5V/1A and 5V/2.1A) to charge smartphones, tablets, and other USB-powered electronics. Additionally, it features an integrated LED emergency light with multiple modes, including a steady light, SOS signal, and warning mode, providing crucial illumination and signaling in emergency situations.
The Pericat S400 is designed for ease of use, with clear indicators and straightforward operation.
To charge the Pericat S400, simply insert the included Type-C charging cable into the USB Type-C 5V/2A Charging Input Port. During charging, the "IN" character will light up on the digital screen, and the power percentage number will flash, indicating the charging progress. Once fully charged, the flashing will stop, and the LCD display will turn off automatically after 10 seconds to conserve power. If the charger is unplugged during the charging process, the LCD display will also turn off. It is recommended to fully charge the jump starter before its first use and ensure it is above 50% charge before attempting to jump-start a vehicle.
To use the Pericat S400 as a power bank, plug your device's charging cable into either the 5V/1A USB Output Port 1 or the 5V/2.1A USB Output Port 2. Then, press the power button to initiate charging. The digital screen will display the charging status.
The integrated LED emergency light offers three modes: steady light, SOS, and warning. To activate the LED light, press and hold the emergency light button for 2 seconds. Once on, a short press of the button will cycle through the modes: steady light -> SOS mode -> warning mode -> steady light. To turn off the LED light, press and hold the emergency light button for 2 seconds again.
The Pericat S400 incorporates comprehensive safety features to protect both the device and the user. The smart jumper cable provides visual and audible warnings (buzzer beeps) for various abnormal conditions:
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Pericat S400.
It is crucial to charge the jump starter at least once every three months, even if it has not been used. This helps maintain the battery's health and prevents deep discharge, which can reduce its lifespan.
After jump-starting a car, wait at least 30 minutes before charging the jump starter. This allows the internal battery to stabilize and cool down, preventing potential damage from immediate charging after a high-power discharge.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure the safe and effective use of your Pericat S400 jump starter for years to come.
