Maintenance; Precautions When Working With Batteries - pro user BC150N Manual

STORAGE
When not in use, store the battery charger in a dry environment.

MAINTENANCE

Don't try to open the body casing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Damage
due to improper use, modifications or attempted repairs lead to the exclusion of liability
and the loss of warranty. The mains supply cord of this device cannot be replaced; if
the cord is damaged, the appliance should be discarded.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH BATTERIES

• Avoid getting electrolyte on your skin or clothes. It is acidic and can cause burns. If
battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. Baking
soda neutralizes lead acid battery electrolyte. If electrolyte gets into your eyes,
immediately flood your eyes with running cold water for at least 20 minutes and get
medical attention immediately. Eye protection is therefore recommended.
• Never charge a frozen battery. If battery fluid (electrolyte) becomes frozen, bring the
battery to a warm area to allow the battery to thaw before you begin charging.
• Do not touch the battery clamps together when the charger is on.
• Never use the charger when it has received a hard blow, been dropped, or otherwise
been damaged. Take it to a qualified professional for inspection and repair.
• Prevent the power cord from being stepped on, tripped over, or being damaged.
• Never pull out the plug by the cord when unplugging the charger. Pulling on the cord
may cause damage to the cord or the plug.
• Although it is usually possible without causing problems to charge the battery when
installed, we recommend to remove the battery from the car before charging. When
charging the battery while installed in the car, Pro-User cannot take any
responsibility for harm to your car electronic or the car itself.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
• Always keep metal objects or other materials that can short circuit battery terminals
securely away from the batteries. The resulting spark or short-circuit may cause an
explosion and can produce a current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal.
Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when
working with starter batteries.
