CAUTIONS:
Refer to battery manufacturer’s specific recommended values for battery type and charging rate
setting.
Do not charge to an improper type of battery. EG: do not charge AGM battery with Calcium battery
setting
If longer output charging cord is required; make sure the diameter is adequate for the current in given
cable length.
Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work
near a lead-acid battery.
Wear protective goggles and turn your face away when connecting or disconnecting battery.
If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters eye,
immediately
flush eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention
immediately.
To reduce risk; avoid dropping a metal tool onto the battery.
Do not set battery on top of charger.
Make sure charger is as far away from battery as output cables permit.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with this appliance.
PREPARING TO CHARGE:
a) If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to charge, always remove grounded terminal from battery first.
Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off, so as not to cause an arc. Be sure the area around battery is
well ventilated while battery is being charged. Gas can be forcefully blown away by using a piece of
cardboard or other non-metallic material as a fan.
b) Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming into contact with eyes. Add distilled water
in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by battery manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gas
from cells. Do not overfill. For a battery without caps, carefully follow manufacturer's recharging instructions.
c) Study all battery manufacturers’ specific precautions such as removing or not removing cell caps while
charging and recommended rates of charge.
d) Check the battery voltage and make sure it matches the output rating of battery charger.
e) Carefully read and understand the battery type setting instruction before using this device
CHARGER LOCATION:
This is a wall mounted charger, locate charger as far away from battery as output DC cables permit.
Never place charger directly above battery being charged; gases from battery will corrode and damage
charger.
Never allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading specific gravity or filling battery.
Do not operate charger in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any way.
Not designed for installation in caravans or similar vehicles.
OUTPUT DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS:
a)
Connect and disconnect DC output terminals only after switching the AC mains off.
b)
Never allow DC output terminals to touch each other.
If you have any questions, problems with programming, connecting the output leads
or anything else, please contact the Dealer from whom you purchased this product from.
REMEMBER the only dumb question is the one you don't ask!
