Operation

Jump-Starting a Vehicle's Engine

You can use the
or boat engine that has a 12 V starting battery using the plied
Jump-Start Cables.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Never allow cables' red and black clamps to touch each other
or another common metal conductor. This could cause
damage to the unit and/or create a sparking/explosion hazard.
Always disconnect the clamps for the unit after use and clip
the plastic guard over the jump-start cable port.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Jump-start cable clamps' connection to the vehicle's battery
terminals must be positive to positive (red clamp to battery
"+") and negative to negative (black clamp to battery "-"). A
reverse polarity connection (positive to negative) may cause
damage to the unit and/or create a sparking/explosion hazard.
WARNING: Risk of explosion, fire or burns
The battery terminals exposed at the Jump-Start Cable Port
have enough energy present to cause a spark, creating an
explosion hazard, or to cause burns if a metal object contacts
both terminals. Always clip the plastic guard over the Port
when not in use.
Important:
starting your vehicle as they may be different from the
instructions supplied with other jump-start products or
jump-start cables.
