Connect the power supply cord to the end of
the booster, labeled “ ”, then plug the
power adapter into vehicle’s 12V DC power
supply. The Drive Reach will automatically
power on when plugged in. If your Drive Reach
is working correctly, the light on the power
adapter will be red, and the light on the booster
will be green. Use only the power supply
provided in this package.
NOTE: If the 12V Cigarette Lighter port on
your car is always on (even when your vehicle
is turned o) and you will be parking for
extended periods of time (more than a day), we
recommend you turn the booster o by pushing
the LED light, which is also a button. This will
prevent the Drive Reach from draining the
battery in your vehicle.
