WARNING 

Safety Instructions 

1. Avoid dangerous environments. Do not charge this item in rain, snow or other damp 

environments. Do not use this item in the presence of explosive atmospheres (gaseous 
fumes, dust or flammable materials) because sparks may be generated when charging 
or discharging this item, possibly causing fire. 

2. Charge in a well-ventilated area. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a charging 

battery. Vented gases may explode. Caution when charging outdoors; surface of 
generator may get very hot. Handle with care. 

3. Do not burn or incinerate this item.  It may explode, causing personal injury and/or 

property damage.  Toxic fumes and materials are created when batteries are burned.  

4. Do not crush, drop or damage this item. Do not use this item if it has received a sharp 

blow or has been dropped, run over, punctured or damaged in any way (e.g., pierced 
with a nail, hit with a car, etc.). 

5. Do not disassemble this item. There are no serviceable parts inside. Disassembly 

increases the risk of electric shock, fire and exposure to battery chemicals that may 
cause personal injury or property damage. 

6. Battery chemicals cause serious burns. Never allow battery chemicals to come into 

contact with skin, eyes or mouth. If this item leaks battery chemicals, use rubber or 
neoprene gloves to dispose of the leaked chemicals. If skin is exposed to battery fluids, 
wash with soap and water and rinse with vinegar. If eyes are exposed to battery 
chemicals, immediately flush with water for 20 minutes and seek medical attention. 
Remove and dispose of contaminated clothing. Do not inhale vented fumes or smoke. 
Please contact the manufacturer immediately for instructions on returning or disposing of 
the defective unit 

7. Do not short-circuit. This item will short-circuit if a metal object makes connection to the 

AC or DC output ports. Do not place this item near anything that may cause a short 
circuit, such as coins, keys or nails. A short-circuited battery may cause fire and personal 
injury. 

8. Never charge or jump-start a frozen battery. 
9. Store this item in a cool, dry place. Do not store this unit for more than 10 days in an 

environment where temperatures may exceed 120 °F (49 °C), such as direct sunlight, a 
vehicle or a metal building during the summer. Doing so may cause damage to the unit. 

10. This product is not intended for commercial applications.
