Prior to Jump starting
This product is intended for consumer use in boosting a stalled vehicle battery only. Please use this product
as an auxiliary tool only. It can be used in emergencies, but it is recommended that you take your vehicle
to a licensed service station for long term repairs. Do not use the tool for applications other than those
specifi ed herein.
CAUTION: Both the battery to be jumped and the booster source (battery or another type of external power
source) m ust
be of the same voltage (6,
12,
etc.).
•
Position the vehicle with the booster battery (or other power source) adjacent to the vehicle
with the discharged battery so that the connection of booster cables between both vehicles is
made easily.
NOTE: Make certain vehicles do not touch each other.
•
Turn off all the electrical loads on both vehicles. Set the parking brake. Place automatic
transmissions in “PARK” and manual transmissions in “NEUTRAL.”
•
Determine whether the discharged battery has the negative (-) or positive (+) terminal
connected to the ground. The ground lead is connected to the engine block, vehicle frame,
or some other good metallic ground – do not connect to the carburetor or fuel lines. The
battery terminal connecte d to the st arter is the one which is not grounded. All vehicles
manufactured in the U.S.A. after 1955 have the negative battery terminal grounded. All
European and Asian passenger vehicles have been negative ground since 1971.
•
Ventcaps are to be tight and level on both batteries. Place a damp cloth over any vent caps
on each battery, making certain it is clear of fan blades, belts, and other moving parts.
Connect the batteries as specified on the information tag attached to the battery booster
cable set.
•
WARNING
Do not allow red and black cable clamps to touch each other or same metal
\
object during use. This could produce sparks which can lead to fire or explosion.
