PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:2.1 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or engine.2.2 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 to metal, causing a severe burn.2.3 Be extra cautious, to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or other electrical parts that may cause an explosion.2.4 Do not permit the internal battery of the unit to freeze. Never charge a frozen battery.2.5 To prevent sparking, NEVER allow clamps to touch together or contact the same piece of metal.2.6 Consider having someone nearby to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.2.7 Have plenty of freshwaters, soap, and baking soda nearby for use, in case battery acid contacts your eyes, skin, or clothing.2.8 Wear complete eye and body protection, including safety goggles and protective clothing. Avoid touching your eyes while working near the battery.2.9 If battery acid contacts your skin or clothing, immediately wash the area with soap and water. If acid enters your eye, immediately flood the eye with cold running water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention right away.2.10 If battery acid is accidentally swallowed, drink milk, the whites of eggs, or water. DO NOT induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately.2.11 Neutralize any acid spills thoroughly with baking soda before attempting to clean up.2.12 This product contains a lithium-ion battery. In case of fire, you may use water, a foam extinguisher, Halon, CO2, ABC dry chemical, powdered graphite, copper powder, or soda (sodium carbonate) to extinguish the fire. Once the fire is extinguished, douse the product with water, an aqueous-based extinguishing agent, or other nonalcoholic liquids to cool the product and prevent the battery from re-igniting. NEVER attempt to pick up or move a hot, smoking, or burning product, as you may be injured.

PREPARING TO USE THE UNIT

WARNING! RISK OF CONTACT WITH BATTERY ACID. BATTERY ACID IS A HIGHLY CORROSIVE SULFURIC ACID.3.1 Make sure the area around the battery is well ventilated while the unit is in use.3.2 Clean the battery terminals before using the jump starter. During cleaning, keep airborne corrosion from coming into contact with your eyes, nose and mouth. Use baking soda and water to neutralize the battery acid and help eliminate airborne corrosion. Do not touch your eyes, nose or mouth.3.3 Determine the voltage of the battery by referring to the vehicle owner’s manual and make sure that the output voltage is 12V.3.4 Make sure that the unit’s cable clamps make tight connections.
