9.Do not attempt to jumpstart a frozen battery

10.After use as jump starter, turn OFF Power Safety Switch. Keep out of reach of children.

11.Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before jump-starting this type of vehicle, read the vehicle’s owner’s manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is advised.

12.Always start jump-starting with Power Safety Switch turned OFF - this allows the polarity alarm to sound if reverse (incorrect) polarity connection is made.

WARNING: Reverse Polarity Alarm Sounds, Reverse the cable clamp connections.

13.Excessive engine cranking can damage the vehicle ‘s starter motor. If the engine fails to start after the recommended number of attempts, discontinue jump-start procedure and look for other problems that may need to be corrected.

14.If vehicle to be started has a Positive Grounded System (positive battery terminal is connected to chassis): Replace steps 9 and 10 of the jump-start procedure (below) with the

following steps A and B, and then proceed to step 11.

A.Connect negative (-) black clamp to vehicle battery ‘s negative terminal.

B.Connect positive (+) red clamp to vehicle chassis or a solid, non-moving, metal vehicle component or body part. DO NOT clamp directly to positive battery terminal or moving part.

15.Replace worn or defective parts immediately - contact Vector Customer Service Department at (954)584-4446 or toll free at 866-584-5044.
