POWER BANK/JUMP STARTER SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Save all warnings and instructions for future reference
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Power Bank
- The power bank is not fully charged out of the carton. First, read the safety instructions and then follow the charging notes and procedures.
- For optimum performance avoid low discharge cycles. Charge the power bank frequently.
- Use and store the power bank in dry conditions with low humidity between 0-40°C, ideally at 15°C. Avoid exposing the power bank to direct sunlight.
- Do not keep the power bank in places where temperatures are liable to reach over 40°C, such as in a car, metal shed, or similar that is in direct sunlight.
- Do not ignite the power bank or expose it to fire. There is a risk of explosion!
- Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. The exhaustive discharge will damage the battery cells. The most common cause of the exhaustive discharge is long-term storage and continued use of low-charge batteries. Always store the power bank with some charge. Charge the power bank every 4 months to restore the charge. Stop working as soon as the performance of the power bank falls noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers.
- Protect the power bank from overloads. Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing without this overheating being apparent externally.
- Avoid damage and shocks. Do not use the power bank which has been dropped from a height of more than one meter or strong external impact, even if the housing of the power bank appears to be undamaged. The battery cells inside the power bank may have suffered serious damage.
- Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries may result in injuries, explosions, and a fire risk.
- Protect your rechargeable battery against moisture, rain, and high humidity. Moisture, rain, and high humidity can cause dangerous cell damage. Never charge or use batteries that have been exposed to moisture, rain or high humidity.
- Never attempt to open the power bank for any reason. If the plastic housing of the power bank is damaged, do not use the power bank.
- When a power bank 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.
- Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If accidental contact occurs, flush with water and seek medical help immediately. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
- Do not use a power bank that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified power banks may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
- Never service damaged battery packs. The service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer.
- Do not disassemble Battery. This may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution, or fire.
- Protect the power bank charger and its cable from damage and sharp edges. Have damaged cables repaired by an authorized service agent before use.
- Keep the power bank and charger out of children’s reach.
- Do not use damaged power bank chargers.

- To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. Removing the power bank will not reduce this risk.
- Do not use the power bank or the battery charger near vapors and inflammable liquids.
- Do not submerge the power bank in water. Do not use the power bank if any contact with liquid.
- During charging, the battery must be placed in a well-ventilated area.
- Never use or charge the power bank if you suspect that the last time, they were charged was more than 12 months previously. There is a high probability that the battery pack has already suffered dangerous damage (exhaustive discharge).
Jump Starter
- Protect Jump Starter from overloads. Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing without this overheating being apparent externally. Do not attempt to jump-start a car more than 4 times in 10 minutes. The number of times that you can attempt to start the engine (max. 10) varies according to the ambient temperature, the condition of the battery you want to start, and the charge level of the jump start power bank battery.
- If fewer than 3 LEDs are illuminated, the jump start is not available.
- Never connect to the vehicle bodywork. Make sure that the connector on the jump start cable is securely connected to the device socket. If the connection is loose during jump starting, the connector could melt as a result of the high current.
- The poles on the vehicle battery must be clean and the clamps of the jump start cable must be securely attached to the battery poles.
- Do not connect the clamps of the jump start cable together during jump-starting Short circuit.
- At very low temperatures a number of jump start attempts may be required before the car starts up. Allow one minute waiting time between each attempt. Remove the equipment within 30 seconds after a successful jump-start as far as possible.
- If you carry out any work in the engine bay of a vehicle, watch out for rotating and moving parts.
- During jump-starting, it is imperative not to wear any items of clothing made of synthetic materials in order to avoid spark formation caused by electrostatic discharge.
- Only grasp clamps by the insulated surfaces.
- Make sure the vehicles are in either Neutral (Manual) or Park (Auto) with the handbrake on.
- Do not leave either engine running unattended.
- Keep away from children as they could potentially strangle or injure themselves.
- Keep children away from the work area
- People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to heart pacemakers could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. Caution is necessary when near coil, spark plug cables, or distributor of running engine. The engine should be off during distributor adjustment.
- Do not point the light directly at a person’s face. Avoid staring at the light.
Risk of Fire & Deflagration
