When an extension cord is used, make sure that:
a) the pins of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those in the charger,
b) the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition,
c) the wire size is large enough for the AC rating of the charger.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE: Pull the extension cord by the plug rather than the cord
when disconnecting from the built-in 120 volt AC charger or the AC outlet.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR JUMP STARTERS
WARNING: BURST HAZARD
Do not use the unit for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst
and cause injury to persons and damage property. Use the unit for charging/boosting a lead-acid battery only. It is not intended
to supply power to a low-voltage electrical system other than in a starter-motor application.
• Use of an attachment not supplied, recommended or sold by manufacturer specifically for use with this unit may result in a
risk of electrical shock and injury to persons.
WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES
• Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal battery
operation. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance that each time before using the jump-starter you read this manual
and follow instructions exactly.
• To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and
manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review cautionary markings on these products
and on the engine.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• NEVER ATTEMPT TO JUMP-START OR CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before jump-starting,
read the vehicle's owner's manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is suitable.
• When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure immediate assistance is available in case of accident or emergency.
• Always have 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.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of vehicle battery, engine or power station
• Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
• Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when working with a lead acid battery. A
lead acid battery can produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring, or similar metal object, to skin, causing a
severe burn.
• Do not wear vinyl clothing when jump-starting a vehicle. Friction can cause dangerous static-electrical sparks.
• Be extra careful to avoid dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or another
electrical part and could cause an explosion.
• Jump-start procedures should only be performed in a safe, dry, well-ventilated area.
• Always store battery clamps when not in use. Never touch battery clamps together. This can cause dangerous sparks, power
arcing and/or explosion.
