2.Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery and (3) product using battery.

3.CAUTION - To reduce risk of injury, charge only lead acid type rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.

4.Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

5.To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.

6.Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

7.An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension cord must be used, make sure:

(a)That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those of plug on charger;

(b)That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and

(c)That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified below

8.Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug - replace them immediately.

9.Do not operate charger if It has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service man.

10.Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or tire.

11.To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.

B.WARNING - RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES

1.WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES

2.To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in vicinity of battery. Review cautionary marking on these products and on engine.

C.PERSONALPRECAUTIONS

1.Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.

2.Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing or eyes.

3.Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.

4.If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention immediately.

5.NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.

6.Be extra cautious not to drop a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short circuit battery or other electrical part that may cause explosion.

7.Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.

8.Use charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low-voltage electrical system other than in an automotive application. Do not use battery charger for charging dry cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage to property.

9.NEVER charge a frozen battery.

D.PREPARINGTOCHARGE

1.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.

2.Be sure 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 nonmetallic material as a fan.

3.Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.

4.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 cell caps, carefully follow manufacturers recharging instructions.

5.Study all battery manufacturers specific precautions such as removing or not removing cell caps while charging and recommended rates or charge.

6.Determine voltage of battery by referring to car owner’s manual and make sure that output voltage selector switch is set at correct voltage. If charger has adjustable charge rate, charge battery initially at lowest rate.

E.CHARGERLOCATION

1.Locate charger as far away from battery as DC cables permit.

2.Never place charger directly above battery being charged; gases from battery will corrode and damage charger.

3.Never allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading gravity or filling battery.

4.Do not operate charger in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any way.

5.Do not set a battery on top of charger.

6.Do not expose chuger to rain or snow.

F.DCCONNECTIONPRECAUTIONS

1.Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after setting any chuger switches to off
