PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

RISK Of EXPLOSIvE gASES. A

SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY

CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION.

TO REDUCE THE RISK Of A

SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:

Working in the vicinity of a lead-acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal battery operation. For this reason, it is of utmost importance that you follow the instructions each time you use the jump starter.

NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or engine.

do not permit the internal battery of the jump starter to freeze. Never charge a frozen battery.

To prevent sparking, NEvER allow clips to touch together or contact the same piece of metal.

When charging the internal battery of the jump starter, work in a well ventilated area and do not restrict the ventilation in any way.

Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto a battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or other electrical part that may cause an explosion.

Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a shortcircuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.

Be sure the area around the battery is well ventilated while the jump starter is being used.

RISK Of CONTACT WITH BATTERY ACID.

Keep the jump starter dry.

dO NOT allow the jump starter to come into contact with rain or moisture.

• 10 •

8.10

5.

6.

7. dO NOT operate the jump starter if you, the jump starter, the device being operated or any other surfaces that may come in contact with any power source are wet. Water and many other liquids can conduct electricity, which may lead to serious injury or death.

do not place the jump starter on or near heating vents, radiators or other sources of heat.

do not place the jump starter in direct sunlight. The ideal air temperature for operation is between 50° and 80°F.

8. do not use the inverter near an open engine compartment where fumes or gases may accumulate.

9. do not modify the AC receptacles in any way.

Using the Inverter

It is important to know the continuous wattage of the device you plan to use with the inverter. The jump starter must be used with devices drawing 400 watts or less. If the wattage is not marked on the device, use only devices that draw less than 4 Amps of AC current.

devices like Tvs, fans or electric motors require additional power to start

(commonly known as the “starting” or “peak power”). The jump starter can supply a momentary surge in wattage; however even devices rated less than the maximum 400 watts can exceed the inverters surge capability and cause an automatic overload shutdown.

do not use the inverter with a product that draws a higher wattage than the inverter can provide, as this may cause damage to the inverter and the product.

Make sure the device you are using is compatible with a modified sine wave inverter.

Always run a test to establish whether the inverter will operate a particular piece of equipment or device.

In the event of a power overload, the inverter is designed to automatically shut down. This safety feature prevents damaging the inverter while testing devices and equipment within the 400-watt range.

If powering more than one device, start one device at a time to avoid a power surge and/or inverter overload. The surge load of each device should not exceed the inverter’s Continuous Operation wattage rate.

If you are using the power inverter to operate a battery charger, monitor the temperature of the battery charger for about 10 minutes. If the battery charger becomes abnormally warm, disconnect it from the inverter immediately.

You can use an extension cord from the inverter to the device without significantly decreasing the power being generated by the inverter. For best operating results, the extension cord should be no longer than 50 feet.
