Jump-Starting a Vehicle’s Engine
You can use the XPower Powerpack to jump-start a vehicle
or boat engine that has a 12 V starting battery using the
supplied Jump-Start Cables.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Never allow cables’ 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 disconnect the
clamps for the unit after use and clip the plastic
guard over the jump-start cable port.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Jump-start cable clamps’ connection to the
vehicle’s battery terminals must be positive to
positive (red clamp to battery “+”) and negative to
negative (black clamp to battery “-”). A reverse
polarity connection (positive to negative) may
cause damage to the unit and/or create a sparking/
explosion hazard.
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.
Always clip the plastic guard over the Port when
not in use.
