Please read and understand all Warnings and Cautions before using product.
WARNING: Charge unit fully prior to use.
WARNING: Shock hazard.
Keep away from children. Do not insert foreign objects into the DC power
socket or USB port. Do not expose this product to water, rain, snow,
condensation, or spray. Do not open the PDJUMP300, there are no
replaceable parts.
WARNING: Explosion hazard
Do not use PDJUMP300 where there are flammable fumes or gases, such
as in the bilge of a gasoline-powered boat, or near propane tanks.
WARNING: Heated surface
Ensure at least 2” open air space is maintained on all sides of the
PDJUMP300. During operation, keep away from materials that may be
affected by high temperatures such as blankets, pillows and sleeping bags.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Never allow jump-start (red and black) clamps to touch each other
or another common metal conductor. This could cause damage to the unit
and/or create a sparking/explosion hazard. Always attached cables to unit
after use.
Jump start cable clamps must be connected positive to positive (red clip to
battery “+”) and negative to negative (black clip to battery “-“or engine
ground). The jump-start feature is designed for short term operation only-
less than 5 seconds. Operating the jump start feature for more than 5
seconds may cause damage to the unit. Allow the power pack to cool
down for at least 3 minutes after each jump start.
WARNING: Risk of explosion, fire or burns
The battery terminals exposed at the jump-start cable port have enough
energy present to cause a spark, creating an explosion hazard, or to cause
burns if a metal object contacts both terminals.
CAUTION: Equipment damage
Do not expose the jump-start to temperatures over 104°F or under 14°F.
