PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
Congratulations on purchasing the finest new charger on
the market today. We wish to acknowledge UL for their
contribution of the following important safety precautions.
Please read and retain these instructions for the continued
safe use of your new charger.
6. Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug.
Replace the cord or plug immediately.
7. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it
to a qualified service center. Call (866) 236-0044 and ask
for the location of a service center near you.
8. Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified service
center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reas-
sembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
9. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from
outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.
10. Monitor battery charger daily when using it to maintain
battery for extended periods (automatic models only).
11. WARNING – RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
a. Working in vicinity of a lead-acid battery is
dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases dur-
ing normal battery operation. For this reason, it is of
utmost importance that each time before using your
charger, you read this manual and follow the instruc-
tions exactly.
b. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these
instructions and those published by the battery
manufacturer and the manufacturer of any equipment
you intend to use in vicinity of the battery. Review
cautionary marking on these products and in the
engine compartment.
6. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool
onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit battery or other
electrical part that may cause explosion.
7. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets,
necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid
battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit
current high enough to weld a ring or other jewelry to
metal, causing a severe burn.
8. Use charger for charging LEAD-ACID battery only. It is
not intended to supply power to a low voltage electrical
system other than in a starter-motor application. Do not
use battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that
are commonly used with home appliances. These bat-
teries may burst and cause injury to persons and dam-
age to property.
9. NEVER charge a frozen battery.
