NOTE: The Start-It Jumpstart System is equipped with an audible Reverse Polarity Alarm. This
feature is only active when the Safety Switch is turned OFF. After both battery clamp
connections are made during jump-start procedures, if you hear a buzzing sound, DO
NOT TURN ON THE SAFETY SWITCH. You must swap the clamp connections before
continuing. If the buzzer does not sound, it is safe to turn on the Safety Switch Jumpstart
procedure.
NOTE: The alarm requires at least two volts to operate, so in the rare instance of a totally dead
battery, the alarm may not sound if the polarity connection is reversed. This is very
unlikely because almost all dead batteries rarely go below four or five volts. Always
double-check your connections before turning on the Safety Switch.
