SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR JUMP STARTERS
WARNING: BURST HAZARD
Do not use the unit for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These
batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage property. Use the unit for charging/boosting a lead-
acid battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low-voltage electrical system other than in a starter-
motor application.
• Use of an attachment not supplied, recommended or sold by manufacturer specifically for use with this unit
may result in a risk of electrical shock and injury to persons.
WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES
• 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 the utmost importance that each time before using the jump-starter
you read this manual and follow instructions exactly.
• To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery
manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review
cautionary markings on these products and on the engine.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• NEVER ATTEMPT TO JUMP-START OR CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before
jump-starting, read the vehicle's owner's manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is suitable.
• When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure immediate assistance is available in case of accident
or emergency.
• Always have 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 accidental contact with battery acid.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of vehicle battery, engine or power station
• Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
• 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 short circuit current high enough to weld a ring, or similar metal
object, to skin, causing a severe burn.
• Do not wear vinyl clothing when jump-starting a vehicle. Friction can cause dangerous static-electrical sparks.
• Jump-start procedures should only be performed in a safe, dry, well-ventilated area.
• Always store battery clamps when not in use. Never touch battery clamps together. This can cause dangerous
sparks, power arcing and/or explosion.
• When using this unit close 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 parts.
• Never allow 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.
a) For negative-grounded systems, connect the positive (red) clamp to the positive ungrounded battery post
and the negative (black) clamp to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect
the clamp to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the
frame or engine block.
b) For positive-grounded systems, connect the negative (black) clamp to the negative ungrounded battery post
and the positive (red) clamp to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect
the clamp to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal part of the
frame or engine block.
• If the connections to the battery's positive and negative terminals are incorrect, the reverse polarity indicator
will light and the unit will sound a continuous alarm until the clamps are disconnected. Disconnect clamps and
reconnect to battery with correct polarity.
• Always disconnect the negative (black) jumper cable first, followed by the positive (red) jumper cable, except
for positive grounded systems.
• Do not expose battery to fire or intense heat since it may explode. Before disposing of the battery, protect
exposed terminals with heavy-duty electrical tape to prevent shorting (shorting can result in injury or fire).
• Place this unit as far away from the battery as cables permit.
• Never allow battery acid to come in contact with this unit.
• Do not operate this unit in a closed area or restrict ventilation in any way.

• This system is designed to be used only on vehicles with a 12 volt DC battery system. Do not connect to a 6
volt or 24 volt battery system.
• This system is not designed to be used as a replacement for a vehicular battery. Do not attempt to operate a
vehicle that does not have a battery installed.
• Excessive engine cranking can damage a vehicle's starter motor. If the engine fails to start after the
recommended number of attempts, discontinue jump-start procedures and look for other problems that may
need to be corrected.
• Do not use this jump starter on a watercraft. It is not qualified for marine applications.
• Although this unit contains a non-spillable battery, it is recommended that unit be laid flat during storage,
use and recharging. To avoid possible damage that may shorten the unit's working life, protect it from direct
sunlight, direct heat and/or moisture.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INVERTERS
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
• Do not connect to AC distribution wiring.
• Do not make any electrical connections or disconnections in areas designated as IGNITION PROTECTED. This
inverter is NOT approved for ignition protected areas.
• Never immerse the unit in water or any other liquid, or use when wet.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE:
• Do not operate near flammable materials, fumes or gases.
• Do not expose to extreme heat or flames.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• Disconnect appliance plug from inverter outlet before attempting any repairs to the appliance.
• When an appliance plugged into this unit is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use
outdoors and so marked.
• Do not attempt to connect the inverter while operating your vehicle. Not paying attention to the road may
result in a serious accident.
• Always use the inverter where there is adequate ventilation.
• Always turn the inverter off when not in use.
• Keep in mind that this inverter will not operate high wattage appliances or equipment that produce heat, such
as hair dryers, microwave ovens and toasters.
• Do not use this inverter with medical devices. It is not tested for medical applications.
• Operate inverter only as described in this Instruction Manual.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPRESSORS
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE: Never leave the compressor
unattended while in use.
WARNING: BURST HAZARD: BURSTING ARTICLES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.
• Carefully follow instructions on articles to be inflated.
• Never exceed the recommended pressure listed in instructions on articles to be inflated. If no pressure is
given, contact article manufacturer before inflating.
• Monitor the pressure at all times on the pressure gage.
• Never leave the compressor unattended while in use.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE: Do not operate compressor continuously for
longer than approximately 10 minutes, depending on ambient temperatures, as it may overheat. In such event,
compressor may automatically shut down. Turn off the Compressor Power Switch immediately and restart after
a cooling down period of approximately 30 minutes.

FIRST AID

• 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.
• EYES: If battery acid comes in contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately, for a minimum of 15 minutes and
seek immediate medical attention.
