WHEN THE BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE
1. Route the leads carefully to reduce the risk of damage by the bonnet,
door, or engine parts.
2. Keep away from the fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can
cause injury.
3. Check the polarity of the battery posts.
4. Refer to the vehicle manual to find out if the vehicle has a Negative or
Positive earth.
• For negative earth vehicles, connect the POSITIVE (RED) lead from the
battery charger to the POSITIVE terminal on the battery. Connect the
NEGATIVE (BLACK) lead to the vehicle chassis, engine block or suitable
earthing point away from the battery. Do not connect the lead to the
carburettor, (if fitted) fuel lines, or sheet metal body parts.
• For positive earth vehicles, (very rare today) connect the NEGATIVE
(BLACK) lead from the battery charger to the NEGATIVE terminal on the
battery. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) lead to the vehicle chassis or
engine block away from the battery. Do not connect the lead to the
carburettor (if used) fuel lines, or sheet metal body parts.
NOTE:
If the battery clamps are reversed, the ERROR LED will be on.
5. When charging is completed, switch off the charger and disconnect the
plug from the power supply. Remove the lead from the vehicle chassis,
and then remove the leads from the battery.
WHEN THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE
1. Make sure that you know the polarity of the battery posts.
2. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) lead to the POSITIVE post on the battery.
3. Reach over and connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) lead at arms length to the
NEGATIVE post on the battery.
4. When charging is completed, switch off the charger and disconnect the
plug from the power supply. When you disconnect the charger from the
battery always do it in the opposite order to the sequence of connection
and break the first connection at arms length from the battery.
NOTE:
A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To
charge it on board requires equipment specially designed for marine
use.
