NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
b) Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE
(POS, P, +) post of battery.
c) Position yourself and free end of cable as far away
from battery as possible – then connect NEGATIVE
(BLACK) charger clip to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post
of battery.
d) Do not face battery when making the final connection.
e) When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse
sequence of connecting procedure and break first con-
nection while as far away from battery as practical.

on shore. To charge it on board requires equipment
specially designed for marine use.
