IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If you are not confident working with 12V DC voltage or are unsure of what you are
doing, consider to seek for professional help e.g. a car garage or your vehicle´s
manufacturer.
Read your vehicle's owner's manual!
Some vehicle manufacturers may have special requirements before charging the
vehicle´s battery. (e.g. fuses that have to be removed or certain security demands).
NEVER CONNECT to 24V or other unsuitable batteries (e.g. NiCd-
batteries). Do not charge batteries that are known to be broken.
The battery charger is not designed as a power supply. Not
following these instructions could cause serious personal injury or
material damage.
This unit has safeguards against reverse-polarity and short-circuit.
Although it is highly recommended not to touch or connect the red
to the black clamps or to connect the leads in reverse polarity.
This could cause dangerous sparks and electric arcing. Only
connect and disconnect the battery leads when the mains supply
is disconnected.
Use the charger in dry environment only. Do not use the unit close to open fire.
Do not operate the unit in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Please stop using the device, if the unit is

GASES
When the battery is being charged, you may notice bubbling in the fluid caused by the
release of gas. As the gas is flammable, avoid naked flames, glowing or electrostatically
charged material and sparks in the vincity of the battery. Provide adequate ventilation.
Because of this risk of explosive gas, only connect and disconnect the battery leads
when the mains supply is disconnected.
