There is a risk of explosive gases being released when batteries are charged or
discharged, failure to follow instructions may cause property damage, explosive
hazard, and/ or personal injury.
Always use protective eyewear when using this product: contact with battery
acid may cause blindness and/ or severe burns
This jump-starter is equipped with an automatic ON/ OFF that only allows jump-start
energy to flow when proper connections are made to battery and frame. The auto-
matic ON/ OFF works in conjunction with an audible reverse polarity alarm and a
large red LED. If inadvertent reverse polarity occurs, the alarm will sound and the
red LED will light. Disconnect the black clamp (negative clamp) first, then the red
clamp. Reconnect properly and a green LED will light. Wait one minute and then
turn the key. To recap:
•
•
Keep out of children’s reach.
ALWAYS store battery clamps in built-in storage well when not in use and never
touch battery clamps together, this can cause dangerous sparks, power arcing
and/ or explosion.
