1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Pursuant to California Proposition 65, this product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
This product has been designed to jump start 12V vehicles only.
1.1 Working in the vicinity of a lead-acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal operation.
It is important that you follow these instructions each time you use the ProBooster.
1.2 To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and
the manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of a battery. Review cautionary marking on these
products and on the engine.
1.3 Keep out of reach of children.
1.4 Use only in a well-ventilated area.
1.5 Do not disassemble the ProBooster. Take it to a qualified service professional if service or repair is required. Incorrect
assembly may result in fire or electrical shock.
1.6 Never operate the ProBooster if it is damaged.
1.7 Do not set the ProBooster on flammable materials, such as carpeting, upholstery, paper, cardboard, etc.
1.8 Place the ProBooster as far away from the battery being jumped as the cables will permit.
1.9 Do not expose the ProBooster to rain or snow.
1.10 Never place the ProBooster directly above battery being jumped.
1.11 To prevent arcing, never allow the clamps to touch together or to contact the same piece of metal.
1.12 If someone else uses the ProBooster, ensure they are well informed on how to use it safely, and have read and
understood the operating instructions.
1.13 The ProBooster is NOT designed to be installed as a replacement for a vehicle battery.
1.14 Do not use for dry cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances.
1.15 Make sure your vehicle is in "park" and the emergency brake is engaged.
1.16 Turn off ALL electronics in your vehicle (air conditioner, heat, radio, lights, chargers, etc.).
1.17 Make sure the key is in the "OFF" position. For smart-key fobs (push-to-start vehicles), make sure the vehicle is
completely OFF before jump starting.
2. PERSONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 Wear complete eye protection and protective clothing when working near lead-acid batteries. Always have someone
nearby for help.
2.2 Have plenty of fresh water, soap and baking soda nearby for use, in case battery acid contacts your eyes, skin, or
clothing. Wash immediately with soap and water and seek medical attention.
2.3 If battery acid comes in contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately for a minimum 10 minutes and get medical attention.
2.4 Neutralize any acid spills thoroughly with baking soda before attempting to clean up.
2.5 Remove all personal metal items from your body, such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches. A battery can
produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring to metal, causing a severe burn.
2.6 Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of the battery or engine.
