Death or serious bodily injury could result from
improper or unsafe use of battery chargers. To
avoid these risks, follow these basic safety
instructions:
AC Input Rating Amperes*
Equal to or
greater than
0
2
3
* If the input rating of a battery charger is given in
watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding
ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the
wattage rating by the voltage rating–for example:
1,250 watts
125 volts
9. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord
or plug-replace them immediately.
10. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a
