FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY
IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR
BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY
EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF
A SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
Check polarity of battery terminals. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has
a larger diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
Attach at least a 24-inch-long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post.
Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery of post.
Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible – then
connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.

A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on
board requires equipment specially designed for marine use.
The battery charger must be connected to the battery according to
the instructions above.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION!
The UC 800 cannot be used to restore a fully worn out battery. If the UC 800 does not
switch to maintenance charge after three days (green light illuminated), there is a fault.
Possible causes:
The battery is probably worn out and should be replaced.
Some large antimony batteries may behave differently and can allow the UC 800 to
charge the battery for too long, which can lead to overcharging. See caution!
