16) FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR
THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A
SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
a) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a
larger diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) post.
b) Attach at least a 60cm (24-inch) long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) battery post.
c)
Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery.
d) Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible – then
connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.
e) Do not face battery when making final connection.
f)
Connect charger AC cord to electrical outlet.
g) When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting
procedure and break first connection while as far away from battery as practical.
The supply cord cannot be replaced. If the cord is damaged the appliance
should be scrapped.
Examine the battery charger regularly for damage, especially the cord, plug
and enclosure; if the battery charger is damaged, it must not be used until it
has been repaired.
