Safety Notices
Explosion Hazard
Batteries can burst if treated improperly. Follow these precautions at all
times.
Clean battery contacts before servicing. To clean battery contacts, use a lint-
free cotton swab dipped in 100% isopropyl alcohol.
Press the battery firmly into the adapter to ensure a good connection.
Ensure that the selected C-code is correct for the chemistry, voltage, and rating
of the battery being serviced.
Observe battery temperature. Service batteries between 5°C (41°F) and 50°C
(122°F). Stop service if battery becomes very hot. The temperatures cited here
are the battery temperatures, not ambient the ambient temperatures. Fast
charging outside this temperature range may damage or reduce the life of the
battery. Allow cold batteries to warm up and hot batteries to cool before
charging.
Do not attempt to charge non-rechargeable and primary batteries such as
alkaline, carbon-zinc, or non-rechargeable lithium batteries.
Do not short the positive and negative battery terminals together at any time.
Do not connect leads from one station to another, or to the case. An electrical
short to any point outside the station bypasses the current regulation loop and
may blow a fuse or cause permanent component damage.
Do not exceed the battery manufacturer’s recommended charge current and
voltage limits for batteries.
Do not remove the adapter from the analyzer while the battery is running.
