1. SAFETY
Read and understand the general safety and operating instructions before use. The following information is intended to help you keep
the product in top working order.
NOTE – The battery in this unit is a consumable item and its ability to accept charge will reduce over time. We will provide warranty
against mechanical and electrical defect for a period of one year - this does not cover fair wear and tear.
If the battery is not charged properly before first use, or regularly conditioned, its capacity will diminish. Under these circumstances we will not
replace the battery even if it is less than one year old.
You can help prolong the life of the battery by following a few simple guidelines.
• Plug in your new Roadstart to the mains transformer and make an INITIAL charge lasting 38 hours.
• Ensure the unit is fully charged before storage.
• DO NOT leave the Roadstart for longer than 2 months without putting it on charge.
• DO NOT attempt to start a vehicle when the Roadstart battery level lights show red.
• DO NOT drop or roughly handle the Roadstart – this will break or disjoin the battery terminals rendering the battery useless and the
warranty void.
• DO NOT use any other charger, other than the one supplied, to recharge the battery.
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of a battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and the
manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Remember to review warning marks on all products and on
engines. Modern vehicles contain extensive electronic systems. Check with the vehicle manufacturer for any specic instructions regarding the
use of this type of equipment on each vehicle. No liability will be accepted for damage/injury where this product is not used in accordance with
all instructions.
1.1. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
Ensure there is another person within hearing range, or close enough to come to your aid should a problem arise, when working
near a lead-acid battery.
Have fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
Wear safety eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching eyes while working with a battery.
Wash immediately with soap and water if battery acid contacts skin or clothing. If acid enters eye, ush eye immediately with cool,
clean running water for at least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
Remove personal metallic items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit
current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, which may cause severe burns.
1.2. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Familiarise yourself with the applications, limitations and potential hazards of the RoadStart.
Keep the unit in good working order and condition. Replace damaged parts immediately.
Use only recommended parts. To use unapproved parts may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.

DO NOT drop any metal item onto the battery as it may spark or short circuit the battery, which could cause an explosion.
DO NOT use RoadStart to recharge dry cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may explode and
cause personal injury and damage to property.

1.3. ELECTRICAL SAFETY (with respect to mains chargers)
R WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to check the following:
You must check the AC adaptor to ensure that it is safe before using. You must inspect the power supply lead, plugs and all
electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of
appropriate safety devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board.
We recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to
use an RCD with portable products that plug into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualied
electrician. You can obtain a Residual Current Device through your Sealey stockist. You must read and understand instructions
concerning electrical safety.
1.3.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualied
person, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT) on a regular basis
1.3.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance and
the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualied electrician.
1.3.3. DO ensure that the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply.
1.3.4. DO ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.3.5 DO regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs for wear and damage and power connections to ensure that none are loose.
1.3.6. DO check product voltage is the same as power supply to be used and check that all fused plugs are tted with the correct capacity
fuses.
