Safety Information - Solar CarStart CS1000 Manual Del Usuario

Read these instructions completely before using the CarStart and save them for future
reference. Before using the CarStart to jump start a car, truck, boat or to power any
equipment, read these instructions and the instruction manual/safety information
provided by the car, truck, boat or equipment manufacturer. Following all manufacturers'
instructions and safety procedures will reduce the risk of accident.
Working around lead-acid batteries may be dangerous. Lead-acid batteries release
explosive gases during normal operation, charging and jump starting. Carefully read and
follow these instructions for safe use. Always follow the specific instructions in this
manual and on the CarStart each time you jump start using the CarStart.
All lead-acid batteries (car, truck and boat) produce hydrogen gas which may violently
explode in the presence of fire or sparks. Do not smoke, use matches or a cigarette
lighter while near batteries. Do not handle the battery while wearing vinyl clothing
because static electricity sparks are generated when vinyl clothing is rubbed. Review all
cautionary material on the CarStart and in the engine compartment.
Always wear eye protection, appropriate protective clothing and other safety equipment
when working near lead-acid batteries. Do not touch eyes while working on or around
lead-acid batteries.
Always store clamps in their holsters, away from each other or common conductors.
Improper storage of clamps may cause the clamps to come in contact with each other, or
a common conductor, causing the battery to short circuit and generate high enough heat
to ignite most materials.
Use extreme care while working within the engine compartment, because moving parts
may cause severe injury. Read and follow all safety instructions published in the vehicle's
Owner's Manual.
While the battery in the CarStart is a sealed unit with no free liquid acid, batteries being
charged with the Car Start unit likely contain liquid acids which are hazardous if spilled.

• Never work alone with electrical equipment. Make sure that someone is around to
give assistance if you need help.
• Always store, use, and charge the CarStart in an area where children cannot get to
the unit. Always secure clamps on Grip-Lock
• The charger uses household 110/120 Volt electrical supply, which if misused, may

• Use the CarStart to charge/jump start lead-acid batteries only. Do not use the unit to
recharge dry cell batteries.
• Remove jewelry such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when working
around a battery. A lead acid battery can produce a short circuit current, which can
melt metals and result in a severe burn.
• Do not drop tools or other metal objects on or near the battery, as a spark may result,
