• DO NOT OPEN THE BATTERY CHARGER — there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening the battery charger
will void manufacturer' s warranty.
• Operate battery charger only as described in this Instruction Manual.
• Check battery charger and components periodically for wear and tear. Return to manufacturer for replacement of
worn or defective parts immediately.
Connection Precautions
• Connect and disconnect output clamps or vehicle accessory plug only after removing AC cord from electric outlet.
• Never allow clamps to touch each other.
• Attach clamps only as indicated in "Charging Using the Supplied Battery Clips. "

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Preparing to Charge
1. Determine voltage of battery to be charged by referring to the vehicle manual.
2. Remove battery completely from boat/airplane or any confined area before charging.
3. If it is necessary to remove battery from vehicle to charge, or to clean terminals, always remove grounded
terminal from battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off, so as not to cause an arc.
4. Clean battery terminals, taking care to avoid getting corrosive material in eyes.
5. Add distilled water in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by battery manufacturer. This helps
purge excessive gas from cells. Do not overfill. For a battery without cell caps (maintenance free), carefully
follow manufacturer's charging instructions.
6. Study all battery manufacturer' s specific precautions, such as removing or not removing cell caps while
charging, and recommended rates of charge.
Charger Location
• Locate charger as far away from battery as cables permit.
• Never place charger directly above battery being charged; gases from battery will corrode and damage charger.
• Never allow battery acid to drip on charger.
• Never operate charger in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any way.
• Marine batteries must be removed and charged on shore.
• Do not set a battery on top of charger.
Charging Using the Supplied Battery Clips
WARNING: A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION. To reduce the risk of a spark near
the battery position AC and DC cords away from hood, door, or moving engine parts.
1. Set the battery voltage selector to the correct voltage.
2. Insert the double barrel tip of the battery clip cable into the battery charger; then plug the battery charger' s
power cord into an AC outlet. The power LED will light red to indicate that the charger is plugged in and ready.
3. Check polarity of battery posts. Positive (POS, P, +) battery post usually has larger diameter than negative
(NEG, N, –) post.
4. Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If negative post is grounded to chassis
(as in most vehicles), see 5. If positive post is grounded to the chassis, see 6.
5. For negative-grounded vehicle, connect positive (red) clamp from battery charger to positive (POS, P, +)
ungrounded post of battery. Connect negative (black) clamp to vehicle chassis or engine block away from
battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to heavy gauge metal
part of the frame or engine block.
6. For positive-grounded vehicle, connect negative (black) clamp from battery charger to negative (NEG, N, –)
ungrounded post of battery. Connect positive (red) clamp to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery.
Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of
the frame or engine block.
