Page 2: Important Safety Instructions
Please carefully read and follow the following safety and operating instructions. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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 no naked flames should be used around the battery, and the area should be kept well ventilated. - Page 3 FEATURES Automatic and Intelligent 5-Stage Charging Curve MB-3623 is controlled by a 12-bit AD microprocessor with 4/5-stage charging characteristic for charging batteries lawnmower, automobiles, motorcycles, snow mobiles, tractors, personal watercraft, boats, minibus, coach, truck, etc. A microprocessor senses the condition of the battery and controls the regulator to provide the right current and voltage to the battery (charging characteristic).
