13. WARNING

 

- RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.

a) WORKING IN VICINITY OF A  LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE 

EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS OF 

UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT EACH TIME BEFORE USING YOUR JUMPSTARTER, YOU READ 

THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

b) To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by vehicle or battery 

manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in vicinity of battery. Review 

cautionary marking on these products and on engine.

c) DO NOT EXPOSE JUMPSTART OR BATTERY TO FIRE OR INTENSE HEAT AS IT MAY EXPLODE.

14. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

a) Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work

near a lead-acid battery.

b) Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.

c) Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near 

battery.

d) If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters eye, 

immediately flood eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention 

immediately.

e) NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.

f) Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit 

battery or other electrical part that may cause explosion.

g) 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 

the like to metal, causing a severe burn.

h) Use Jumpstarter on a 12 volt LEAD-ACID battery only. Do not connect to a 6 volt or 24 volt battery 

system. Use DC outlet socket to operate 12 volt appliances equipped with a cigarette lighter plug.

i) NEVER jumpstart a frozen battery

j) 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.
