Operating Temperature Ranges
CAUTION
Do not charge a battery that is below 32°F (0°C). Allow the
battery to warm up to room temperature before charging.
The operating temperature of the charger is 32°F (0°C) - 113°F (45°C). For best
results, charge batteries at room temperature 68°F -77°F (20°C - 25°C). Batteries
charged in conditions above or below room temperature will exhibit battery cycle life
and capacity below their rated values. This also applies to the temperature of the
battery itself. Allow batteries to adjust to room temperature before charging.

POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION
The power supply uses a nominal 110 or 220 volt circuit. The power supply
manages and conditions the power input to the charger. The power supply does
not use a resettable or replaceable fuse. If a power surge occurs the power supply
temporarily interrupts the current supply until the condition is corrected. If the power
light on the power supply fails to light, an extreme surge may have occurred and the
power supply may trigger an internal fuse that must be serviced by the manufacturer.
Return the power supply for repair or replacement immediately.
WARNING
Never alter an AC cord or its plug. If it does not fit into your outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician. An improper connection can cause an
electric shock. To reduce the risk of electric shock, the charger must be grounded.
WARNING
Before using an adapter, ensure that the outlet box is grounded. If you are not
sure the box is grounded, have it checked and repaired, if necessary, by a qualified
electrician.
A temporary adapter can be used to connect the grounding plug to a propely grounded two-prong outlet. A 110-volt adapter is shown below. Connect the grounding
plug on the adapter to the outlet box using the cover plate screw. Use the temporary
adapter only until a properly grounded, three-prong outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
