could result in permanent damage to the battery and charger
.
DO NOT

DO NOT
allow water, moisture or foreign objects into the charger.
DO NOT
attempt to use batteries with more cells or total voltage than listed in the
specifications
.
DO NOT
overcharge batteries as this can cause permanent damage. Do not use a
charge current rate which exceeds the safe levels of the battery
.
DO NOT
place the charger or battery on flammable surfaces or near combustable
materials while in use
,
such as a carpet
,
cluttered workbench
,
paper
,
plastic
,
vinyl
,
leather and wood

On the left side of the charger
,
connect the DC power cord
’
s alligator
clips directly to the output terminals on the 12V DC power source
.
Always match
polarities
(

‘+’
terminal
,
black lead to black
‘-’
terminal
).
To utilise the
charger
’
s absolute maximum power capabilities the DC power source must be capable
of delivering at least 5 amps while maintaining 12 volts DC
.
WARNING
!
Never accidentally short together the positive (+) and negative (-) input
connections when connected to the 12V DC power
.
Doing so could result in permanent
damage to the power source and the charger
.
This charger is rated for a maximum output power of 45 watts
.
Depending on certain
conditions
(
if the charge current is set to maximum
,
the maximum number of cells are
connected to the output
,
and input voltage is low
),
the actual current delivered to the
battery might be slightly less than the setting
.
This is normal
.
