CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

• After each use, clean the Battery Charger cables and connectors - be sure to remove any battery
fluid that will cause corrosion.
• Clean the outside case of the Battery Charger with a soft cloth and, if necessary, mild soap
solution.

Adding Water to the Battery

BURN HAZARD
Always wear protective eyewear when adding water to the battery. Contact with battery acid
can cause blindness and/or severe chemical burns.
Do not add water to a maintenance-free battery.
Once the battery is fully charged, check the electrolyte level of the battery. If the level is below the
specified level, add clean distilled water only. Never add acid or tap water.

Storage

• Store the Battery Charger disconnected from AC power, battery cables and battery.
• Store the Battery Charger at room temperature.
• Keep the Battery Charger cords loosely coiled during storage to prevent damage to the cords. Do
not use the Battery Charger if cords or cables have been damaged in any way.
Due to inherent self-discharge, lead-acid batteries should be charged at least every
4 months, especially in a warm environment. Leaving a battery in a discharged state, or if not
recharged every 4 months, may result in permanent battery damage and poor performance.

Disposal

The Battery Charger is designed to provide years of service. However, when the Battery Charger
reaches the end of its service life, it should be disposed of properly.
Examples of places that will accept items like this are: county or municipal recycling
drop-off centers, scrap metal dealers and retailers who sell automotive replacement
lead-acid starter batteries.
