IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 
 
WARNING—RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES
1.1  WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS 
DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING 
NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION, AND WHEN DISCHARGED OR 
CHARGED. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE 
THAT BEFORE USING YOUR CHARGER, YOU READ THIS MANUAL 
AND FOLLOW THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 
EXACTLY.
.2  To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these safety instructions and 
those published by the battery manufacturer and the manufacturer of any 
equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of a battery. Review cautionary 
markings on these products and on engine, and on vehicle or equipment 
containing the battery.
.3 
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only rechargeable 
LEAD-ACID-TYPE batteries which may include MAINTENANCE-
FREE, LOW-MAINTENANCE OR DEEP CYCLE batteries. Other types 
of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
 
If you are uncertain as to the type of battery you are attempting to charge, 
or the correct procedure for checking the battery’s state of charge, contact 
the seller or battery manufacturer.
.4  Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger 
manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to 
persons.
.5  To reduce risk of damage to the electric plug and cord, pull by the plug 
rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger.
.6  Position the AC and DC leads to avoid tripping over them and to prevent 
damage by the vehicle hood, doors, or moving engine parts; protect the 
leads from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
.7  Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, 
or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service center.
1.8  Do not disassemble the charger; take it to a qualified service center when 
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric 
shock or fire.
 
The charger is not intended to supply power to a low-voltage electrical 
system other than applications using rechargeable, lead-acid type 
batteries. Do not use the battery charger to charge dry-cell batteries used 
with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause personal 
injury or property damage.
IMPORTANT:  READ AND SAVE THIS SAFETY AND INSTRUCTION MANUAL. 
KEEP IT WITH OR NEAR THE CHARGER AT ALL TIMES.
