7. Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified service technician when serv-

ice or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric

shock or fire and will void warranty.

8. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting

any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.

9. Do not expose charger to rain, snow or use when wet.
10. Never charge a frozen battery.

PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS AND SAFETY

1. Another person should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to

your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.

2. Fresh water and soap should be nearby in case battery acid contacts skin,

clothing or eyes.

3. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while

working with a battery. Acid, acid particles or corrosion may get into eyes.

Immediately flood eye with cold water (Eye Wash Station) for at least 10 minutes

and seek medical attention immediately.

4. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water.
5. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.

CAUTION:

Dropping a metal tool onto battery might spark or short-circuit the battery

or other electrical part 

that may cause explosion.

6. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches

when working with a lead acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-

circuit current high enough to cause a severe burn.

CAUTION:

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class

B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruc-

tions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installa-

tion. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the

user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the fol-

lowing measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
