important safety instructions

Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you are working near a lead-acid battery.

Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes. If acid enters the eye area, rinse with cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical help immediately.

*NOTE: In the rare case of jump-starting a vehicle that has a positive-grounded vehicle electrical system, connect the

NEGATIVE black clamp (-) to the negative terminal (-) of the vehicle battery. Then connect the POSITIVE red clamp (+) to an unpainted and unmoving part of the vehicle chassis or engine block. If you are unsure of the nature of the vehicle’s electrical grounding system, check the owner’s manual of the vehicle. To disconnect clamps, reverse order.

Do not smoke, or use matches or cigarette lighter, or allow any spark or flame near the battery or engine.

Never operate the power source unit if it has damaged lead wire or clamps. Have the lead wire replaced by a qualified technician.

Wear complete eye and clothing protection when working with leadacid batteries.

Do not permit the internal battery of the IP-1875C to freeze. Never charge a frozen battery. handling warning led indicators

The lED lights will indicate the charge level as follows:

1. A red lED indicates a 50% or less charge and you should immediately recharge the IP-1875C.

2. A yellow lED indicates a 50 to 75% charge. The IP-1875C may be used but should be recharged as soon as possible.

Warning: Failure to follow instructions may cause damage or an explosion. Read entire instruction manual before use.

1. Turn ignition OFF before making cable connections.

2. Use in a well-ventilated area.

3. Keep clears of fan blades, belts, pulleys and other parts that may cause injury.

4. Make sure the power ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position until clamps are connected to the vehicle battery.

5. NEVER allow clamps to touch together or to contact the same piece of metal to prevent sparking.

6. Clamp the red clamp (+) to the positive terminal of the battery.

(For a negative grounded system.)*

7. Clamp the black clamp (-) to an unpainted and unmoving part of the chassis or engine block.

8. If you have connected the clamps of your IP-1875C backwards, an audio alarm will sound. DO NOT turn your IP-1875C on. This could cause serious damage. Reverse the connections, and the audio alarm will stop.

9. If no audio alarm is sounded, turn ON the Jump Start switch and then crank the engine. If the engine does not start within

5-8 seconds, wait at least 1 minute before attempting to start vehicle again. (This permits the battery to cool down.)

4. The green lED will glow when the battery has reached full charge. This could take up to 72 hours on some charges due to age and condition of the battery. The charger will automatically drop into a float mode and maintain the battery at full charge without damaging the battery. The IP-1875C can be left plugged into the 110V wall outlet indefinitely to maintain full power.

5. Recharge the IP-1875C as soon as possible after use.

The IP-1875C can be stored in any position. When the IP-1875C is ON, the clamps are live and will produce arcing or sparking if they come in contact with each other. To prevent accidental arcing, always keep the clamps on the side ears and the JUMP START ON/OFF switch in the OFF position when not using it to jump start a vehicle.

All batteries are affected by temperature. The ideal storage temperature is at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Performance varies based on battery temperature conditions.
