WARNINGS:
Warning statements identify conditions or practices that may result in personal injury or loss of life.
1) When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure immediate assistance is available in case of
accident or emergency.
2) Always use protective eyewear when using this product: contact with battery acid may cause
blindness
and/or severe burns, be aware of first aid procedures in case of accidental contact with battery acid.
3)
There is a risk of explosive gases being released when lead acid batteries are being charged or discharged.
Failure to follow instructions may cause property damage, explosive hazard, and/or personal injury
4) Make sure the Safety Switch is Off before connecting battery clamps to discharged battery. This will
enable the polarity alarm to function.
5) When connecting the battery clamps to a discharged battery, and an alarm sounds, do NOT turn on the
Safety Switch - the polarity is reversed. Interchange battery clamps before turning the Safety Switch ON.
6) When charging unit from a 110/120-volt ac electrical outlet in any wet or damp area, make sure that
the outlet used is protected by a ground fault interrupt (GFI) Switch.
7) When charging the unit near water, do not allow the electrical cords and outlets to get wet or come near
water-electrical shock could result.
8) Jumpstart procedures should only be performed in a safe, dry, well-ventilated area.
9) Always store battery clamps in built-in holsters when not in use. Never touch battery clamps together-
this can cause dangerous sparks, power arcing, and/or explosion.
10)
When using this unit in proximity to the vehicle’s battery and engine, stand the unit on a flat, stable surface,
and be sure to keep all clamps, cords, clothing and body parts away from moving vehicle components.
11) Do not wear vinyl clothing when jumpstarting a vehicle-friction can cause dangerous static electricity
sparks. Remove all jewelry or metal objects that could cause short circuits or react with battery acid.
12) Always disconnect the negative (Black) jumper cable first: followed by the positive (Red) jumper cable.
13) Never allow red and black clamps to touch each other or another common metal conductor-this could
cause damage to the unit and/or create sparking/explosion hazard. Always store battery clamps in
built-in holsters when not in use.
14)
Do not expose battery to fire or intense heat as it may explode. Before disposing of the battery, protect
exposed terminals with heavy-duty electrical tape to prevent shorting (shorting can result in injury or fire).
15) Do not smoke or use inflammable items (matches, cigarette lighters, etc.) while working on a vehicle’s
battery system.
16) Keep unit out of reach of children (whether stored, or in use)!
