engines.

1.1.  PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

 

  ensure there is another person within hearing range, or close  

 

enough to come to your aid should a problem arise, when 

 

working near a lead-acid battery.

 

  Have fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts  

 

skin, clothing or eyes.

 

  Wear safety eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid 

 

touching eyes while working with a battery.

 

  Wash immediately with soap and water if battery acid contacts  

 

skin or clothing. If acid enters eye, flush eye immediately with  

 

cool, clean running water for at least 15 minutes and seek 

 

immediate medical attention.

 

  remove personal metallic items such as rings, bracelets, 

 

necklaces and watches. A lead-acid battery can produce a 

 

short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to  

 

metal, which may cause severe burns.

IMPORTANT WARRANTY INFORMATION: KEEP YOUR ROADSTART HEALTHY

Read and understand the general safety and operating instructions before use. The following information is intended to help you 

keep the product in top working order.

NOTE – The battery in this unit is a consumable item and its ability to accept charge will reduce over time. We will warranty it 

against mechanical and electrical defect for a period of one year - this does not cover fair wear and tear. 

If the battery is not properly charged before first use, or regularly conditioned, its capacity will diminish. under these circumstances we will 

not replace the battery even if it is less than one year old.

You can help prolong the lifecycle of the battery by following a few simple guidelines. 

• 

Plug in your new roadstart to the mains transformer and make an InItIAl charge lasting 72 hours. ensure fully charged before storage. 

DO NOT

 leave the roadstart for longer than 2 months without putting it on charge.

• 

 

DO NOT

 attempt to start a vehicle when the roadstart battery voltage is reduced to less than 7Volts.

• 

 

DO NOT

 drop / roughly handle the roadstart – this will break the battery terminals rendering the battery useless and the warranty void.

• 

 

DO NOT

 use any other charger, other than the one supplied, to recharge the battery.

• 

DO NOT

 obstruct the ventilation grilles and protect against water ingress - this roadstart unit is fitted with ventilation grilles to help    

disperse any gases produced during the charging procedure.
