SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER INVERTER

WARNING: When using this product, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

• Read all the instructions before using the product.
• To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when the product is used near children.
• Do not put your fingers or hands into the product.
• Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by a power pack (inverter) manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
• To reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord, pull the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the power pack (inverter).
• Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion, or risk of injury.
• Do not operate the power pack (inverter) with a damaged cord or plug, or a damaged output cable.
• Do not disassemble the power pack (inverter), take it to a qualified service person when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the power pack (inverter) form the outlet before attempting any instructed servicing.
• When charging the internal battery, work in a well-ventilated area and do not restrict ventilation in any way.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
• If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts the eyes, seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not expose a power pack (inverter) to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265 °F (130 °C) may cause an explosion.
• Have servicing performed by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference

• Risk of fire and electric shock. Dry location use only. Do not expose the power inverter to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the power inverter will\ increase the risk of electric shock.
• For household use only.
• Do not allow the power inverter to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
• The power inverter is not intended for any use other than charging small USB electronics or small AC devices specified in SPECIFICATIONS in this manual. Any other use may result in damage.
• Switch off the power inverter when not in use.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to the battery pack, and picking up or carrying the power inverter. Carrying the power inverter with your finger on the switch or energizing power inverter that has the switch on invites accidents.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the power inverter before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the power inverter. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power inverter accidentally.
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
• Use a power inverter only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
• Use only with the battery packs and chargers listed below:

BA1400, BA1400-FC,BA2800, BA2800-FC, BA4200, BA4200-FC, BA1400T, BA1400T-FC, BA2242T, BA2242T-FC, BA2800T, BA2800T-FC, BA4200T, BA4200T-FC, BA3360T, BA3360T-FC, BA4480T, BA4480T-FC, BA5600T, BA5600T-FC, BA6720T, BA6720T-FC| CH2100, CH2100-FC, CH3200, CH3200-FC CH5500, CH5500-FC, CH2800D, CH2800D-FC CH7000, CH7000-FC

• When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance outside of the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside of the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the power inverter or the battery pack except as indicated in the instructions for use and care.
• Store idle power inverter out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power inverter or these instructions to operate the power inverter. Power inverters are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power inverter and accessories. Check for misalignment or breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power inverter’s operation. If damaged, have the power inverter repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power inverters.
