• This unit was designed for household use only.
• Avoid dangerous environments. Don't use battery chargers in damp or wet locations.
• Keep children away. Keep away from children. This is not a toy!
• Store indoors. When not in use, battery chargers should be stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up places – out of reach
of children.
• Unplug the battery charger when not in use.
• Check unit periodically for wear and tear. Take to a qualified technician for replacement of worn or defective parts
immediately.
• Read and understand this instruction manual before using this unit.
• FIRST AID – SKIN: If battery acid comes in contact with skin, rinse immediately with water, then wash thoroughly with soap and
water. If redness, pain, or irritation occurs, seek immediate medical attention.

• Don't abuse cord. Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp
edges. Pull cord by plug rather than cord when unplugging the unit.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to be used. Receptacles are
available having built in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

Extension cords
WARNING: An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a
risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord is used, make sure that the pins of the extension cord are the same number, size
and shape as those in the charger.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The
following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

Power Cord safety
This battery charger is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A
in the illustration below. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used to connect
this plug to a two-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should
be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER: Before using adapter as illustrated, be certain that center screw of outlet plate is grounded. The green-colored rigid
ear or lug extending from adapter must be connected to a properly grounded outlet– make certain it is grounded. If necessary,
replace original outlet cover plate screw with a longer screw that will secure adapter ear or lug to outlet cover plate and make
ground connection to grounded outlet.
sPECiFiC saFETy iNsTruCTioNs For BaTTEry ChargErs
DANGER: To avoid the risk of explosion and serious injury, NEVER connect this battery charger to a bank of
batteries with cells or batteries of different voltages. ALL batteries within a bank of batteries to be charged must be
the same voltage.
WARNING: BURST HAZARD: Do not use the unit for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances.
These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage property. It is not intended to supply power to a low-voltage
electrical system other than in a starter-motor application.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
• Do not expose charger or components to water or any other liquid; or use charger in the rain or snow.
• Never immerse the battery charger in water or any other liquid, or use when wet.
