WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GAS.
• Operate the charger as far away from the battery as DC charger cables permit.
•
Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
• NEVER charge a frozen battery.
• NEVER overcharge a battery.
• NEVER set a battery on top of the charger.
• NEVER place the charger directly above a battery being charged. Gases from
the battery will corrode and damage the charger.
•
NEVER touch the battery clips together when the charger is energized.
• When disconnecting the battery charger, pull by the plug, not by the cord. Pulling
on the cord may cause damage to the cord or plug.
• Do not operate the charger with damaged cord or plug.
•
NEVER allow battery acid to drip onto the charger.
PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
Wear complete eye protection and protective clothing when working near
lead-acid batteries. Always have someone nearby for help.
• Have plenty of fresh water, soap and baking soda nearby for use, in case
battery acid contacts your eyes, skin, or clothing. Wash immediately with soap
and water and seek medical attention.
• If battery acid comes in contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately for a
minimum of 10 minutes and get medical attention.
•
Neutralize any acid spills thoroughly with baking soda before attempting to
clean up.
• Remove all personal metal items from your body, such as rings, bracelets,
necklaces and watches. A battery can produce a short circuit current high
enough to weld a ring to metal, causing a severe burn.
• Do not drop a metal tool onto the battery.
• If it is necessary to remove the battery from the vehicle to charge it, always
remove the grounded terminal first.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Remove all cord wraps and uncoil the cables prior to using the battery charger.
