1. To prevent excessive discharge of the vehicle battery, Do not

charge more than two battery packs without operating the vehicle.

2. Disconnect charger from cigarette lighter socket when not in

use to prevent vehicle battery from discharging.

3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:

a. Ensure the cigarette lighter operates when pushed in the

socket.

b. Ensure the cigarette lighter operates when the vehicle’s ignition

switch is in the “Accessory” position.

4. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery

pack is charged when the air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

5. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while

charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
