3 Warning! High Voltage! Do not try to remove the internal battery or try to repair this product. This product has an internal inverter and jump-starter technology that raises the voltage and output to a much higher level than the internal battery. Opening the product can cause serious injuries! IMPORTANT This unit contains a lead acid battery that should be delivered to a battery collection point for recycling at the end of its life. Read the instructions carefully before usage, and follow all the instructions. Connect the cables correctly and only use normal sockets and USB connectors. Do not put any other object in the USB or AC output port. High voltage circuitry is used inside the body. Do not open the case at any time. Do not block the vent. Keep the AC socket dry to prevent electric shock. Do not operate in temperatures less than 14 degrees Fahrenheit. The unit should not be placed on sand or dirt as the fan for the heat reduction at the bottom may blow or suck debris into the unit. To prevent the leakage of electrolyte in the lead acid battery, the unit should be set upright on the ground. Always use the crank consistently. Rotating too slowly may reduce the current and prolong charging time required. Rotating too fast will damage the internal gear. Do not place the device in very high temperatures or very humid environments. Use only the charging cables included. Charge the product at least once per month to prolong the life of the internal battery. Do not shine LED lights directly in eyes under any circumstances. When the unit is used for the first time, or not used for over 120 days, the internal battery needs to be powered by DC charging for 14 hours. 2

Connect the ring on the BLACK wire to the negative terminal. 5. Screw the BLACK nut back on the negative terminal to secure wire. 6. Unscrew the RED nut from the positive terminal. 7. Connect the ring on the RED wire to the positive terminal. 8. Screw the RED nut back on the positive terminal to secure wire. 9. Clamp the BLACK clamp to the negative pole of the car battery first followed by the RED clamp to the positive pole of the car battery. This unit is able to output a current of 200A. WARNING! Fire or explosion may be caused because of a short circuit or wrong connections of the poles. 9

11 IMPORTANT!: To prevent a short circuit, metallic parts should be kept away from both the positive and negative clamps. Avoid any contact between the negative and positive clamps. Carefully check if the poles are connected correctly before connecting to any external battery. For Best Performance Charging Car Batteries (for cars under 2.4L): Hand crank the unit until it s charged to 12.0 Volts (readable on LCD display) and use as a 12V output. The unit is suitable to power a 12V device directly by connecting the positive wire of the 12V device to the red (positive) nut and the negative wire to the black (negative) nut. Make sure, before connecting the positive wire, you integrated a suitable fuse in the wire to protect your 12V device from short circuit and overcharge. Care and Maintenance Cleaning Clean the Emergency Power Supply with a soft, dry clean cloth. Do not use any harsh abrasives or chemicals to clean the Emergency Power Supply. Storage The suitable storage temperatures are: -4 degrees Fahrenheit to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. 10
