9. SAFETY & TEMPERATURE FEATURES:
9.1
Will never overcharge your battery.
9.2
Output short circuit protection.
9.3
Output overload protection:
The charger uses a “solid state circuit interrupter” that opens under severe overload.
This condition may occur if attempting to charge a severely discharged or heavily sulfated battery.
Once the interrupter opens, the charger will stop charging for a short period and then resume charging automatically.
The yellow LED will be OFF until charging resumes. Overloading could be due to an external load.
Remove the load condition prior to attempting to recharge the battery.
9.4
Reverse battery/overload condition:
The charger has reverse battery and short circuit protection.
If a reverse battery condition exists (the white LED will turn RED only when output leads are connected backwards),
simply unplug the charger from the AC power and properly remake the connections as described in this manual.
9.5 Internal overheat protection: Chargers have an internal overheat protection.
The power will be reduced if the ambient temperature increases.

You can connect the lead to the battery and tuck the lead away while you are using your vehicle.
When you get back to your garage, simply plug the lead back into the charger.
