the BATTERYMINDER 2000 SERIES
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK,
OR INJURY TO PERSON, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important safety and operating instructions
for BatteryMINDer 2000 Series.
2. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by VDC Electronics
may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
4. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug
rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
5. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary.
Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and

a) That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size,
and shape as those of plug on charger;
b) That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical
condition; and
c) That wire size is large enough for ac ampere rating of charger
as specified in Table below.

If the input rating of a charger is given in watts rather than in amperes, the
corresponding ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage rating by
the voltage rating - for example: 1250 watts/125 volts = 10 amperes
