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 utmost importance that each time before using your
charger, you read this manual and follow the instructions exactly.
This unit contains or emits chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Read the user instructions carefully before use.
Save them for future reference.
Wear ANSI-approved splash-resistant safety

risk of personal injury if you get battery acid in your
eyes, rinse your eyes with clean water for at least 10
minutes and then seek medical attention immediately.
• If the jump starter is handled wrongly, there is a risk
of explosion and serious personal injury and/or
material damage.
• Never short-circuit the clamps with any metal object
or by allowing them to touch each other.
• Check that the vehicle battery is 12V, or there will be
a risk of explosion and/or serious injury.
