• 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
• 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 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 gauge 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 gauge 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 (red) and the
unit will sound a beep. 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 kept upright 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.
FIRST AID
• SKIN: If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water for at least 10 minutes. 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing your new 300Amp Jump Starter. Read this Instruction Manual and follow the instructions carefully before
using this unit.
CHARGING/RECHARGING
Lead-acid batteries require routine maintenance to ensure a full charge and long battery life. All batteries lose energy from self-
discharge over time and more rapidly at higher temperatures. Therefore, batteries need periodic charging to replace energy lost through
self-discharge. When the unit is not in frequent use, manufacturer recommends the battery be recharged at least every 30 days.
WARNING: Never attempt to use the AC and DC charging methods at the same time.
