SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The internal battery of the mini lithium power pack is a rechargeable maintenance-free lithium battery which is not replaceable.
When being charged and during starting assistance, batteries generate explosive gases. To reduce the risk of an explosion, avoid fire and
sparks in the vicinity of the batteries. Each time before use of the device, read these instructions and the safety instructions of the battery
manufacturer through with care.
Observe too the manufacturer's special instructions on the vehicle battery.
Only use the mini lithium power pack as a starting aid for vehicles fitted with lead-acid batteries. It is not designed for operating low-voltage
appliances via the connections for long periods while the power pack is connected to the mains supply. The power pack is not a voltage
converter. Never attempt to recharge dry cell batteries, as used in many households. These batteries are capable of exploding and causing
a considerable amount of damage.
•
When you are working with lead-acid batteries, there should always be a second person in the vicinity to give assistance in the
case of an accident, for example with battery acid.

When battery acid comes into contact with the skin or clothing, treat the affected parts immediately with soap and water. If despite
washing, skin irritation or pain occurs in the affected spot, seek medical advice without delay. If acid splashes in the eyes,
immediately flush the eye(s) affected for at least ten minutes with cold running water, then seek out the nearest available doctor
without further delay.
