DANGER
The XPLORE Charger contains solid-state electronic components
that require no maintenance. The best care you can give the
charger is to protect it from contact with liquids, spray, or fumes
which may cause corrosion and by keeping the air intake vent
clean and free from any obstructions.
Disconnect all AC (mains) and DC power and clean the
n
outside of the case and wiring with a damp cloth.
Wear protective gloves, if you suspect it has come in
n
contact with battery fluid, salt water, gasoline or oil, or other
corrosive material.
Do not operate if the charger contains moisture of any kind.
n
Periodically, disconnect all AC (mains) and DC sources
n
and check all DC and AC wiring connections to be sure
they have not loosened or deteriorated.
Also check all cable clamps to ensure they are tightly
n
fastened.
Loose battery terminals and lugs exposed to open air
n
corrode rapidly. The corrosion appears as a white powder or
granular foam on the terminals and any nearby exposed
metal parts. If it contacts your skin, it will cause burns
unless you rinse it off immediately.
To clean battery terminals, follow the recommendations and
n
procedures of the battery manufacturer.
