WARNING!
•HEATED SURFACE. The power outlet housing may become uncomfortably warm, and can reach up to 60 °C (140 °F) under extended high power operation.
•Do not use the mobile power outlet in a vehicle in which the plus pole of the car battery is connected to the chassis! Before using the device, please determine how the battery is connected in the respective vehicle.
•Do not operate the mobile power outlet if it has been dropped or damaged in any way.
•Always disconnect the device by pulling on the plug itself, not the power cable.
•The device must be fastened so that it does not cause a safety hazard in case of collision
or hard braking.
•Route the power cable so that it does not interfere with the driver of the vehicle when plugged into the cigarette lighter socket.
•Prevent the power supply cable from coming into contact with hot parts of the engine or from hanging over sharp edges and make sure it will not get caught on moving parts of the engine.
•When using car batteries, always follow the advice from the manufacturer of the battery and in the vehicle instruction manual.
•Using improper voltage may result in damage to the device and possible injury to the user.
•The correct voltage is listed on the rating plate.
•Never leave the device unattended during operation.

CAUTION!
•Do not connect live AC power to the mobile power outlet’s AC outlets. The mobile power outlet will be damaged even if it is switched off.
•Avoid placing the mobile power outlet on or near heating vents, radiators or other sources of heat. Do not place the mobile power outlet in direct sunlight (e.g. on the vehicle's dashboard) in order to prevent an overheat shutdown caused by high temperatures. Do not use the mobile power outlet in temperatures over 40 °C (104 °F).
CAUTION!
•DO NOT USE the mobile power outlet with the following equipment:
Small battery-operated devices such as rechargeable flashlights, some rechargeable shavers, and night lights that are plugged directly into an AC receptacle to recharge. The device can be damaged if connected to the mobile power outlet. Always recharge batteries using a separate battery charger.
Battery chargers used in power tools. These chargers display a WARNING LABEL stating that there are dangerous voltages at the charger’s battery terminals.
•Do not insert foreign objects into the mobile power outlets or ventilation openings.
•The mobile power outlet must only be connected to a battery that has a nominal output of
12 V. It will not operate if connected to a 6 V battery and may be damaged if connected to a battery with 16 V or more.
•REVERSE POLARITY. Power connections from a 12 V battery to the mobile power outlet must be positive to positive and negative to negative. A reverse polarity connection (positive to negative) will blow a fuse in the mobile power outlet and might permanently damage the unit. Damage caused by a reverse polarity connection is not covered by your warranty.
•Disconnect the power cable whenever the engine is switched off for extended periods of time. In some vehicles, the power does not turn off after the engine has been switched off. If the plug is left connected, the vehicle battery might become discharged or damaged.
•Using the device for extended periods of time can completely discharge the vehicle battery.
•When using a mobile power outlet continuously inside a vehicle that is not running, the
engine should be started at least once an hour for 10–15 minutes to keep the battery from discharging. Do not start a vehicle in a closed garage, as the carbon monoxide in the exhaust is fatal.
•Mobile power outlets work best with a battery that is in good condition and fully charged. A weak battery will be drained easily if demands are too high. This could leave you stranded so be sure to check the battery’s condition before using a mobile power outlet in a stationary vehicle.
