1. Avoid dangerous environments. Do not charge this item in rain, snow or damp
or wet locations. Do not use this item or charger in the presence of explosive
atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or ammable materials) because sparks may
be generated when charging or discharging this item, possibly causing re.
2. Charge in a well-ventilated area. Do not allow smoking or open ames near a
charging battery. Vented gases may explode.
3. Do not burn or incinerate this item. This item may explode, causing personal
injury or damage. Toxic fumes and materials are created when batteries are
burned.
4. Do not crush, drop or damage this item. Do not use this item if it has received a
sharp blow or has been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (e.g., pierced
with a nail, hit with a car, etc.).
5. Do not disassemble. There are no serviceable parts. Disassembly increases the
risk of electric shock, re and exposure to battery chemicals that may cause
personal injury or damage.
6. Battery chemicals cause serious burns. Never allow battery chemicals into
contact with skin, eyes or mouth. If this item leaks battery chemicals, wear
rubber or neoprene gloves while disposing of the leaked chemicals. If skin is
exposed to battery uids, wash with soap and water and rinse with vinegar.
If eyes are exposed to battery chemicals, immediately ush with water for 20
minutes and seek medical attention. Remove and dispose of contaminated
clothing. Do not inhale vented battery fumes or smoke.
7. Do not short-circuit. This item will short-circuit if a metal object makes
connection to the AC or DC output ports. Do not place this item near anything
that may cause a short circuit, such as coins, keys or nails. A short-circuited
battery may cause re and personal injury.
8. Never charge or jump-start a frozen battery.
9. Store this item in a cool, dry place. Do not store this unit for more than 10 days
in an environment where temperatures may exceed 120 °F (49 °C), such as
direct sunlight, a vehicle or a metal building during the summer. Doing so may
cause damage to the unit.

both the positive and negative terminals on your vehicle’s battery for the best
connection possible. (Do not wipe your hand on your clothes afterward; battery
acid residue may damage your clothing.)

identify both positive and negative terminals and their position in relation to your
jumper cables. (Always remember RED = POSITIVE and BLACK = NEGATIVE.)
4. Plug the jumper cables (see B) into your Patriot Power Hub jumper-cable output

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
WARNING
DO NOT crank the engine for longer than four seconds. This can cause damage to
the Patriot Power Hub or the vehicle’s battery. If the engine fails to start after four
seconds of continuous cranking, remove the jumper cable clamps from the vehicle’s
battery and wait two minutes before reconnecting and trying again. If you reconnect
too soon, this may cause the Patriot Power Hub and cables to become very warm
and the Patriot Power Hub to not operate.
CAUTION: Cranking the engine more than six consecutive times can cause the
Patriot Power Hub to become very warm and possibly damage the Patriot Power
Hub. Please handle with care and follow all safety instructions.
NOTE: If the engine does not crank or start, there may be a problem other than a
discharged battery. Call your local mechanic for service. The effectiveness of the
Patriot Power Hub will vary based on engine size and the age of the vehicle. The
Patriot Power Hub is not approved for charging electric cars.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
USING THE GLASS-BREAKING HAMMER:
During an accident, doors or windows may become jammed or inaccessible. The
glass-breaking hammer (see A6) on the Patriot Power Hub can help you escape
to safety when trapped in a vehicle or help you get back into your vehicle to help
others or retrieve important items.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Carefully remove the safety cover of the hammer on the end of the Patriot Power
Hub so the glass-breaking end is exposed.
2. Select a side window to break open. Before breaking the glass, shield your eyes
and face from the chosen window as best you can and instruct others to do the
same.
3. Smash the chosen window by swinging the Patriot Power Hub overhand, as you
would swing a household hammer. One or two strikes should shatter the glass.
4. Use the Patriot Power Hub to scrape the window edges clear of any remaining
glass.
5. Carefully exit or enter the vehicle.
IMPORTANT:
Use the glass-breaking hammer only in an emergency escape situation. The
effectiveness of the blade is guaranteed for one use only. The customer assumes all
risks associated with additional uses.

4. Do not immerse the Patriot Power Hub in water or any other uids.
5. Wipe off debris using a soft cloth moistened with water only. Do not use any
cleaning solutions or solvents.
6. NEVER disassemble the Patriot Power Hub. The Patriot Power Hub has no
serviceable parts and must be repaired by an authorized service center.
