Warning! NEVER attempt to charge the batteries by connecting the charger wires directly to the
battery terminals.
Warning! Some battery components (posts, terminals, etc.) contain lead compounds. Always
wash hands thoroughly after handling, or wear approved protective gloves. Eye
protection and a face shield are also recommended when working with batteries.
Warning! ALWAYS use the charger supplied with Explorer Magellan. Other types of chargers
may damage the batteries.
Warning! DO NOT remove the ground plug from the charger power cord. This will create
an electrical hazard. If necessary, use an approved 3-prong adapter for use with
a 2-prong outlet.
Warning! DO NOT attempt to recharge the batteries outside or when the wheelchair has
been exposed to any sort of moisture.
Warning! DO NOT plug in the on-board charger and an off-board charger at the same time.
