edges.
• Disconnect appliances. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply when not in use, before servicing, and when changing
accessories.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to be used. Receptacles are
available having built in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

manufacturer at (877) 571-2391 for more information.
• Do not operate this appliance near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Motors in these tools
normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
• Never submerge this unit in water or any other liquid; do not expose it to rain, snow or use when wet.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, disconnect the unit from any power source before attempting maintenance or cleaning.
Turning off controls without disconnecting will not greduce this risk.
• This equipment employs parts (switches, relays, etc.) that produce arcs or sparks. Therefore, if used in a garage or
enclosed area, the unit MUST be placed not less than 18 inches above the floor.
• Do not use this unit to operate appliances that need more than 5 amps to operate from the 12 volt DC accessory
outlet.
• Do not insert foreign objects into either the USB outlet or the 12 volt DC accessory outlet.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHARGING THIS UNIT
• IMPORTANT: This unit is delivered in a partially charged state. Fully charge unit with a household extension cord (not supplied)

• All ON/OFF switches should be in the OFF position when the unit is charging or not in use. Make sure all switches are in the OFF
position before connection to a power source or load.
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD
• Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug.
• Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way.
• Do not disassemble charger; return it to the manufacturer when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result
in a risk of electric shock or fire.
• Outdoor use extension cords. When appliance is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
• Extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

• 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 cord by plug rather than cord when disconnecting
the extension cord from the unit or the outlet.

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.
