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 UTMOST IMPORTANCE, IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, THAT EACH TIME BEFORE USING THE POWER PACK, YOU READ THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS.

• To reduce 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 warning marks on all these products and on the engine.
• When working near a lead-acid battery, someone should be within range of your voice, close enough to come to your aid.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.
• Wear complete eye, hand and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes when working with batteries.
• If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters eyes, immediately flood eye with cool, clean running water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention immediately.
• NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
• Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto a battery. It could spark or short circuit the battery or, any other electrical part possibly causing an explosion.
• When working with a lead-acid battery, remove personal metallic items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring, or the like to metal, which may cause severe burns.
• Use the battery charger for charging “lead-acid batteries only”. Do not use for charging dry-cell or Ni-Cad batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. For example, radios, torches etc. These batteries may explode and cause injury to persons and damage to property.
• NEVER charge or boost a frozen battery.
• NEVER allow clamps to touch one another or to contact the same piece of metal to prevent arcing.
• Ensure the power pack is switched off prior to connecting/disconnecting of the vehicle battery.
• Do not use the charger in damp or wet conditions.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Do not submerge in water.
• Do not operate near flammables such as petrol, paraffin, or thinners etc.
• If the charger receives a sharp blow or is otherwise damaged in any way, do not disassemble. Have it checked by a qualified service person. Return to source.
• The battery must be removed from the appliance before it is scrapped.
• The appliance must be disconnected from the supply mains when removing the battery.
• The battery must be disposed of safely.
• This appliance is for use on 12V circuits only.
• Do not use in high temperatures.
• Before connecting the power pack, ensure the main switch is in the ‘off’ position.

• Prior to initial use charge for 24 hours.
• Do not use the power pack while charging.

RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES:

• The battery must be removed from the appliance before it is scrapped.

• The appliance must be disconnected from the supply mains when removing the battery.

• The battery must be disposed of safely

• Charge the battery using the specified charger under the charging conditions specified.Charging the battery under any other conditions may cause the battery to overheat, emit hydrogen gas, leak, ignite or burst.

• Do not place the battery near a device that may cause sparks (such as a switch or a fuse). The battery may generate flammable gas when charged, so remember to keep the battery away from fire to prevent sparks from igniting or causing explosion.

• Do not place or store the battery in a vehicle in hot weather, under direct sunlight, or near a source of heat. Use and storage of the battery in these conditions may cause battery leakage, fire or bursting.

• Damage and deterioration of battery characteristics may occur if the battery is dropped.

• Do not charge the battery in the inverted position.

• Do not carry the battery by hanging it from the terminal or the cable, as it may cause damage to the battery.

• Turn off the switch of the circuit when connecting the battery to a charger or load.

• Batteries tend to lose a part of their capacity due to self-discharge during shipment and storage, recharge the batteries before you use them and after purchase or long-term storage in order to restore their full capacity.

• Do not continue discharging to the point where the voltage drops below the recommended discharge cut-off voltage.
  If a storage battery that was discharged below the recommended discharge cut- off voltage is recharged, the storage battery may generate heat which could deform it or cause condensation to form moisture from inside the battery.
  Discharging below the recommended voltage may also accelerate the deterioration of the battery’s performance characteristics.

• Avoid overdischarge, and charge the battery immediately after discharge.

• Unsatisfactory storage conditions may cause deterioration in battery performance, shorten service life and could cause rust to form on the terminals.

• Do not allow metallic objects to touch or bridge the terminals especially jewellery. Failure to observe the precautions may cause the battery to overheat, emit hydrogen gas, leak, ignite or burst.

• Do not throw the battery into fire or heat the battery. The battery may burst or generate a toxic gas if placed in contact with fire.

• Do not attempt to disassemble, remodel or destroy the battery, as it may cause the battery leakage, fire or bursting, and could also create sulphuric acid spills from the battery resulting in possible burns to personnel and damage to the immediate environment.

• Do not continue to charge the battery beyond the time specified in the instructions. If the battery is not fully charged even after being charged for a longer time than specified, discontinue charging and remove the battery from the charger. Charging for a longer time than specified may cause the battery to leak, ignite, or burst.

• Do not discharge the batteries beyond the maximum values indicated on the battery. If the battery is discharged beyond the maximum values, it may leak, ignite or burst.

• Keep the batteries beyond the reach of children.

• Wear gloves when handling batteries.

• Do not apply organic solvents such as paint thinner, petrol or liquid detergents to the battery.
  If these are brought into contact with the battery case, it may crack, causing leakage.

• The battery contains electrolyte (diluted sulphuric acid) a very toxic substance. If the battery leaks and the liquid inside spills on the skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with plenty of clean water. If the liquid splashes into eyes, immediately flush the eyes with plenty of clean water and consult a doctor. Sulphuric acid will burn skin and in the eyes may cause loss of eyesight.

• Store the battery in a stable position so as to keep the terminals of the battery away from any metallic or other conductive material (including items that may fall or drop onto the battery). Protect the battery from rain. If the terminals of the battery come into contact with water, they may corrode.
  As a general rule, keep the battery in an upright position.
  When storing the battery, disconnect it from the charger and keep it in a place where the temperature is low. Do not store in direct sunlight or temperatures exceeding 60°C.
  If the battery is stored for a year or longer without being charged, its service life may be shortened. Store the battery after fully charging it, otherwise its service life may be shortened.

• Use/recharge the battery regularly. The battery gradually deteriorates during storage and consequently its decreased capacity may be irreversible even after recharging.

Used batteries are recyclable. When returning used batteries, insulate their terminals with adhesive tape if not the residual electricity in used batteries may cause fire or explosion.
This battery is fully recyclable and should be accepted at any location that excepts common automotive batteries. Contact your national/local authority or municipal waste centre for details.

CHARGING THE 12V POWER PACK

NOTE

• Battery must be charged for 24 hours prior to first use and charged regularly every 2 months.
• The Power pack was precharged during production. However, it is more beneficial to ensure that the battery is kept at full charge prior to each use. It is recommended that the power pack should be kept on charge until it is required for use.
• The charging circuit is automatic and will not overcharge when connected to the charger leads. When all the battery charging status indicators 3 and the battery charged complete indicator light 4 are fully illuminated, the power pack is fully charged.

CHECKING POWER LEVEL
To check the power level of your power pack, press the test button 2and the battery indicator lights will illuminate to show the current power level of the battery. The battery charged complete indicator light will illuminate when the test button is depressed and the power pack has a full charge.

RECHARGING THE 12V POWER PACK

There are two methods in how to charge your power pack. The first is automatic charging using the
AC/DC transformer charger 11which is the preferred method. The second is through the 12V DC charger lead 12. This is not automatic and will require supervision as the power pack could be damaged through overcharging.

NOTE: If your 12V Power Pack is completely discharged, it may take up to 30 hours to be fully recharged.

AC/DC TRANSFORMER CHARGER

• a) Insert the AC/DC transformer charger into the charging socket 6 located on the front panel of the 12V Power Pack.
• b) Connect the AC/DC transformer charger into the AC outlet, the charging light will light on the front panel of the 12V Power Pack.
• c ) Allow the 12V Power Pack to charge until the battery charged complete indicator light illuminates (you can monitor the  progress by checking the three red battery charging status indicator lights).
• d) Once the 12V Power Pack has charged. Allow to charge for a further three to six hours (three hours is acceptable but to ensure maximum charge efficiency, six hours is preferred).

NOTE: TEST button 2 must be pressed to check battery power level and charging lights.

JUMP STARTING

Refer to the General Safety Instructions for information regarding the handling of lead acid batteries etc.
For ‘Maintenance’ type lead acid batteries remove the cell caps to monitor the electrolyte levels prior to commencing. The level of the electrolyte should be up to the indicator on the battery (approx. 5 to 10mm above the top of the plates). This must be checked and adjusted.

NOTE: This is not applicable for ‘Maintenance Free’type batteries.
When topping up the electrolyte use only distilled or de-ionised water. DO NOT use tap water. It is advisable to check the electrolyte density (specific gravity) to make certain the acid to water ratio is sufficient. Clean the battery terminals to allow an optimum conductive connection between the battery and power pack.

It is advisable to measure the battery voltage for
signs of deep discharge. Discharging the battery to 20% or less of it’s full charge capacity is known as ‘deep discharge’. Unless specifically designed for deep discharge cycles this practice will significantly reduce the life of the battery.

Do not attempt to use the power pack on a vehicle with a deep discharged battery.
The power pack shall not be used on large ampere-hour batteries as this may cause damage or injury.

WARNING:

• Explosive gases. Prevent flames and sparks. Provide adequate ventilation during use.

• Refer to the appliance/vehicle manufacturer’s literature for specific instructions on jump starting.

• If it is necessary to disconnect the battery, some information (e.g. radio presets and security code) may require re-entry. Disconnecting the battery can also trigger the anti-theft
  alarm/immobiliser. Contact the manufacturer for detailed information.

• All the power packs are equipped with a visible polarity inversion warning. In the event the positive (+) and negative (-) connections are incorrectly made, e.g. power pack positive (+) red clamp to battery negative (-) terminal and power pack negative (-) black clamp to battery positive (+) terminal, this must be rectified immediately to avoid damage or possible injury. Engine cranking requires a large amount of current. The engine that requires starting must be in a good mechanical condition as prolonged cranking is not possible.

• When attempting to crank vehicles equipped with larger capacity batteries or in severe climates it will be necessary to pre-charge the vehicle battery for approximately 15 minutes before attempting a jump start.

• NOTE: When starting diesel engines, to prevent damage to the glow plugs which would otherwise result, pre-heat the plugs before starting the engine.

• NOTE: This appliance will only help jump start a vehicle with a functioning engine and serviceable battery.

• WARNING: Due to the sensitive nature of vehicle electronics you MUST ensure that you refer to the vehicle manufacturers handbook BEFORE you use the product, as the jump start procedure can vary from vehicle to vehicle.
