NOTE: In the rare event that the vehicle to be started has a Positive Grounded
System (positive battery terminal is connected to chassis): Replace step
4 and 5 above with steps 4a and 5a and then proceed to steps 6
through 8 below.
4a. Connect negative (-) black clamp to vehicle battery's negative terminal.
5a. Connect positive (+) red clamp to vehicle chassis or a solid, non-moving,
metal vehicle component or body part. DO NOT clamp directly to positive
battery terminal or moving part.
6. Turn jumpstart system's power switch to ON position.
7. Start vehicle (do not turn key for longer than 5-6 seconds).
8. After vehicle starts, turn jumpstart system's Safety Switch to OFF position. Remove
clamps (disconnect the negative (Black) jumper cable first; followed by the positive
(Red) jumper cable) and replace them in the built-in storage holsters. Squeeze the
handles and slide the clamp into position and release your grip.
CAUTIONS:
• If engine fails to start, leave ignition key turned off, make sure safety switch is off and
disconnect the negative (–) clamp first, then the positive (+) clamp. Try again later; the
engine may be flooded.
• Recharge jumpstart system after each use.
WARNINGS:
• Always disconnect the negative (black) jumper cable first; followed by the positive
(red) jumper cable.
• Never allow red and black clamps to touch each other or another common metal
conductor; this could cause damage to the unit and/or create sparking/explosion
hazard.
• There is a risk of explosive gases being released when batteries are improperly
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.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• ALWAYS store battery clamps in built-in holsters when not in use. Never touch battery
clamps together; this can cause dangerous sparks, power arcing and/or explosion.

FIRST AID:

• Skin: If battery acid comes in contact with skin, rinse immediately with water, then
wash thoroughly with soap and water. If redness, pain, or irritation occurs, seek
immediate medical attention.
• Eyes: If battery acid comes in contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately, for minimum
of 15 minutes. SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
