Safety information
WARNINGS
WARNING STATEMENTS IDENTIFY CONDITIONS OR PRACTICES
THAT MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE
1.
When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure immediate assistance is avail-
able in case of accident or emergency.
2.
Always use protective eyewear when using this product: contact with battery acid may
cause blindness and/or severe burns, be aware of first aid procedures in case of acci-
dental contact with battery acid.
3.
There is a risk of explosive gases being released when lead acid batteries are being
charged or discharged. Failure to follow instructions may cause property damage,
explosive hazard, and/or personal injury.
4.
When connecting the battery clamps to a discharged battery, and an alarm sounds -
the polarity is reversed.
5.
When charging unit from a 110/120 Volt AC electrical outlet in any wet or damp area,
make sure that the outlet used is protected by a ground fault interrupt
(GFI) Switch.
6.
When charging the unit near water, do not allow the electrical cords and outlets to get
wet or come near water–electrical shock could result.
7.
Jump-start procedures should only be performed in a safe, dry, well-ventilated area.
8.
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.
9.
When using this unit in proximity to the vehicle's battery and engine, stand the unit
on a flat, stable surface, and be sure to keep all clamps, cords, clothing and body
parts away from moving vehicle components.
10. Do not wear vinyl clothing when Jumpstarting a vehicle, friction can cause dangerous
static-electricity sparks. Remove all jewelry or metal objects that could cause short
circuits or react with battery acid.
11. Always disconnect the negative (Black) jumper cable first: followed by the positive
(Red) jumper cable, except for positive ground systems.
12. Never allow red and black clamps to touch each other or another common metal con-
ductor–this could cause damage to the unit and/or create sparking/ explosion hazard.
Always store battery clamps in built-in holsters when not in use.
13. Do not expose battery to fire or intense heat as it may explode. Before disposing of the
b a t t e ry , protect exposed terminals with heavy-duty electrical tape to prevent shorting
(shorting can result in injury or fire).
14. Do not smoke or use inflammable items (matches, cigarette lighters, etc.) while working
on a vehicle's battery system.
15. Keep unit out of reach of children (whether stored, or in use)!
FIRST AID:
1.
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.
2.
EYES: IF BATTERY ACID COMES IN CONTACT WITH EYES, FLUSH EYES IMMEDIATELY—FOR MINIMUM
OF 15 MINUTES—SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
