you follow these instructions each time
you use the ProBooster.

Review cautionary marking on these
products and on the engine.
1.3 Keep out of reach of children.
1.4 Use only in a well-ventilated area.

damaged.

materials, such as carpeting, upholstery,
paper, cardboard, etc.

2. PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

2.1 Wear complete eye protection and
protective clothing when working near
lead-acid batteries. Always have someone
nearby for help.
2.2 Have plenty of fresh water, soap and
baking soda nearby for use, in case
battery acid contacts your eyes, skin, or
clothing. Wash immediately with soap and
water and seek medical attention.
2.3 If battery acid comes in contact with eyes,
flush eyes immediately for a minimum 10
minutes and get medical attention.
1.8 Place the ProBooster as far away from
the battery being jumped as the cables
will permit.
1.9 Do not expose the ProBooster to rain
or snow.
1.10 Never place the ProBooster directly above
battery being jumped.
1.11 To prevent arcing, never allow the clamps
to touch together or to contact the same
piece of metal.
1.12 If someone else uses the ProBooster,
ensure they are well informed on how
to use it safely, and have read and
understood the operating instructions.
1.13 The ProBooster is NOT designed to be
installed as a replacement for a vehicle
battery.
1.14 Do not use for dry cell batteries that are
commonly used with home appliances.
1.15 Make sure your vehicle is in "park" and
the emergency brake is engaged.
1.16 Turn off ALL electronics in your vehicle
(air conditioner, heat, radio, lights,
chargers, etc.).
1.17 Make sure the key is in the "OFF"
position. For smart-key fobs (push-to-
start vehicles), make sure the vehicle is
completely OFF before jump starting.
2.4 Neutralize any acid spills thoroughly with
baking soda before attempting to clean up.
2.5 Remove all personal metal items from
your body, such as rings, bracelets,
necklaces and watches. A battery can
produce a short circuit current high
enough to weld a ring to metal, causing a
severe burn.
2.6 Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in
the vicinity of the battery or engine.
