The Charge Circuit

240 VAC and 50 to 60 Hz ranges. The charger also will function outside of those ranges (down to 85 VAC and 40
Hz, up to 270 VAC and 70 Hz) although charging times will be longer. Outside of the 85 to 270 VAC and 40 to
70 Hz ranges, the charger will not operate.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the battery charger must be grounded. The charger is equipped with an AC electric
cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding type plug. The AC plug must be connected to an
appropriate receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and
all local codes and ordinances.
The use of an extension cord with the charger should be avoided. If one must be used, heed the following WARNING.
WARNING
• An extension cord or electrical outlet must accept a three-prong plug. The extension cord should
be a three-wire No. 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) or no. 14 (British Standard Wire Gauge), and be
as short as possible (no more than 12 feet (3.7 m). The use of an improper extension cord could
result in fire or an electrical shock.
