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 clips 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 clips for the unit
after use and replace the plastic guard over the jump-start
cable port.
WARNING: Fire hazard
Jump-start cable clips’ connection to the vehicle’s battery
terminals must be positive to positive (red clip to battery
+”) and negative to negative (black clip 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.
Important: Closely follow these instructions for jump-starting
your vehicle as they may be different from the instructions
supplied with other jump-start products or jump-start cables.
