This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
CAN ICES-3(B).
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
NOTICE: Per FCC Part 15, changes or modifications to this equipment
not expressly approved by DEWALT could void your authority to operate

Specific Safety Instructions for Charging
this Unit
• Don’t abuse the cord. Protect the extension cord from being walked
on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where it connects to the unit. Never carry the unit by the cord
or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Pull by the plug rather than
the cord when disconnecting from the unit.
• Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should be
provided on the circuits or outlets to be used. Receptacles are
available having built in GFCI protection and may be used for this
measure of safety.
• IMPORTANT: This unit is delivered in a partially charged state. Fully
charge unit with a household extension cord for a full 40 hours or until
the battery status icon shows 4 solid bars before using for the first
time. You cannot overcharge the unit using the AC charging method.
• To recharge this unit, use only the built-in AC charger with an AC
extension cord (not included) or the (optional) DC charger.
• All functions should be turned off when the unit is charging or not
in use. Make sure all functions are turned off before connection to a
power source or load.
Extension Cords
WARNING: Use of an improper extension cord could result in a
risk of fire and electric shock, and will void warranty. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.

When an extension cord is used, make sure that:
• the pins of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as
those in the charger,
• the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition,
and
• the wire size is large enough for the AC rating of the charger.
WARNING: NEVER ATTEMPT TO USE THE AC AND DC
CHARGING METHODS AT THE SAME TIME.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of injury or property damage: Pull
the extension cord by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting
from the built-in 120 volt AC charger or the AC outlet.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of injury or property damage when
charging using the 12 volt DC method:
• Recharge using this method only when necessary. Frequent use of
the 12 volt DC charging method may shorten battery life.
• Do not exceed 6 hours charging time using this method.
Specific Safety Instructions for
Jump Starters
WARNING – Burst hazard: Do not use the unit for charging dry-cell
batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These
batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage property.
Use the unit for charging/boosting a lead-acid battery only. It is not
intended to supply power to a low-voltage electrical system other than
in a starter-motor application.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, never immerse this
unit in water or any other liquid, or use when wet.
WARNING – Risk of explosive gases:
• Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries
generate explosive gases during normal battery operation. For this
reason, it is of the utmost importance that each time before using
the jump-starter you read this manual and follow instructions exactly.
• To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and
those published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of
any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review
cautionary markings on these products and on the engine.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire:
• Do not operate near flammable materials, dust, fumes or gases.
• Do not expose to extreme heat or flames.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of injury or property damage:
• NEVER ATTEMPT TO JUMP-START OR CHARGE A FROZEN
BATTERY.
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged
if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before jump-starting, read the
vehicle’s owner’s manual to confirm that external-starting assistance
is suitable.
• When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure immediate
assistance is available in case of accident or emergency.
