4.10 EXTREME CONDITION
OPERATION
When operating in extreme cold or hot
conditions, or at a high altitude, extra
attention should be given to any indication
that could lead to a serious problem.
Preventative safeguards exist that can
minimize the possibility of malfunctions that
are prone to occur under certain ambient
conditions. Refer to
Section 6.3, Extreme
Condition Operation
, for additional
information on variable ambient operating
conditions, and adjustment adaptations that
can be made accordingly.
IMPORTANT
ALWAYS carefully monitor the charging
system while it is in use. The high
amperage level that the unit produces
can damage the battery being charged or
other components if the unit is left
connected for an extended period of
time.
WARNING
To avoid damage to the sensitive
electronic controlled equipment from
voltage spikes, the battery cables of the
battery to be charged must be
disconnected. Vanair Manufacturing is
not responsible for any damage that
might occur if this step is not followed.
