WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD:

If an extension cord is used, make sure that:

a)the pins of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those in the charger,

b)the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition,

To reduce risk of electric shock, disconnect the unit from any power source before attempting maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls without disconnecting will not reduce this risk.

WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES

Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal battery operation. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance that each time before using the jump-starter you read this manual and follow instructions exactly.

To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review cautionary markings on these products and on the engine.
