Lead batteries contain aggressive, corrosive acids. Prevent skin and eyes from coming into contact with the lead battery
fluids! Never dismantle the lead battery! Wash affected skin thoroughly using soap and water. If acid has entered an eye,
rinse immediately for at least 10 minutes under clean, running, lukewarm water! Then immediately consult a doctor!

If your clothing has acid on, rinse immediately with plenty of soap and water!
•
Never wear rings, necklaces, watches or similar when handling batteries or chargers. The short-circuiting of the battery
contacts brings a risk of burns and explosion!

the vehicle battery.
•
Always store the pole callipers in the designated holders to ensure that the power pack is not at risk of short-circuiting
when not in use.
•
Never attempt to jump-start a vehicle when the battery is frozen, this brings a risk of explosion.
•
Always observe the following sequence when disconnecting the power pack from the battery. There is a risk of explosion:
Switch off the jump-start function on the Powerpack. First disconnect the black (-) pole calliper, coil the cable and attach
the pole calliper to the designated holder. Then disconnect the red (+) pole calliper, coil the cable and attach the pole
calliper to the designated holder.

6.2 CHARGING THE POWER PACK
Charge the power pack for 24 hours before you use it for the first time. To do this, place the power pack in a well-ventilated location. Open the
storage compartment for the 230 V charging cable (Position 9 in the overview) and remove the charging cable. Insert the plug of the cable into a
230 V socket. The charge control lamp (Position 3 in the overview) now lights in red. After 24 hours, disconnect the mains plug, stow the cable in
the storage compartment without kinking and close the lid. Press the push button (Position 6 in the overview) for the charging status indicator
(position 4 in the overview). If the green control lamp lights up, the power pack is ready for use.
In order to ensure that the power pack is always able to provide its full power performance, charge for at least 5 hours after each use (to jump-
start a vehicle).
6.3 CHECKING THE CHARGING STATUS
The charging status of the battery cannot be checked during charging. First disconnect the 230 V charging cable from the socket before checking
the charging status.
To check the charging status of the power pack, press the button for the charging status (Position 6 in the overview) while the mains is un-

Make sure that the power pack is fully charged. To do this, press the control button for the charging status (Position 6 in the overview). If the
charging control lamp (Position 4 in the overview) lights up „high" green, the power pack is ready for use.
The jump-start function of the power pack is designed only for vehicles with a 12 V on-board voltage. Before using,
consult the operating instructions of your vehicle to determine whether, and if so, how an external jump-start
is to be used. Modern vehicles have sensitive electronics and control devices that may be damaged if the wrong
procedure is used.
