IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL BATTERY CHARGERS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Read all instructions before operating product. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS: Don't use charger in damp or wet locations. Don't use charger in the rain.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept at a distance from work area.
• STORE CHARGER INDOORS. When not in use, charger should be stored indoors in dry, and high or locked-up place — away
from reach of children.
• 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.
• DO NOT OPERATE near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Sparks might ignite fumes.
• OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When charger is used outdoors, use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and
so marked.
• EXTENSION CORDS. 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.

WARNING: This product or its power cord contains lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and
birth defect or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
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. Use the unit for charging/boosting a LEAD-ACID battery
only.
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD:
• If an extension cord is used, make sure that:
a) the pins of extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those in the charger,
b) the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition,
c) the wire size is large enough for the AC rating of the charger as indicated in the table in the previous section.
• Do not operate unit with damaged cord or plug; or if the unit has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged
in any way. Do not disassemble the unit; take it to a qualified service technician when service or repair is required. Incorrect
reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire, and will void warranty.
• Use of an attachment not supplied, recommended or sold by manufacturer specifically for use with this unit may result in a
risk of electrical shock and injury to persons.
• NEVER submerge this unit in water; do not expose it to rain, snow or use when wet.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, disconnect the unit from any power source before attempting maintenance or cleaning.
Turning off controls without disconnecting will not reduce this risk.
WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES
• Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal battery operation.
For this reason, it is of the utmost importance that each time before using the charger you read this manual and follow
instructions exactly.

• To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and
manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review cautionary markings on these products
and on the engine.
• This equipment employs parts (switches, relays, etc.) that produce arcs or sparks. Therefore, if used in a garage or enclosed
area, the unit MUST be placed not less than 18 inches above the floor.
• THIS UNIT IS NOT FOR USE BY CHILDREN AND SHOULD ONLY BE OPERATED BY ADULTS.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• Pull cord by plug rather than cord when disconnecting the 120V AC Charging Adapter from the unit.
• NEVER ATTEMPT TO JUMP-START OR CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is charged. Before charging, read the
vehicle's owner's manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is suitable.
• When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure immediate assistance is available in case of accident or emergency.
• Always have protective eyewear when using this product: contact with battery acid may cause blindness and/or severe burns.
Be aware of first aid procedures in case of accidental contact with battery acid.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin.
• If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water for at least 10 minutes and get medical
attention immediately.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of vehicle battery, engine or charger.
• 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 the like of a metal, causing a severe burn.
• Never allow battery acid to come in contact with this unit.
• Do not operate this unit in a closed area or restrict ventilation in any way.
• 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.
EYES: If battery acid comes in contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately, for a minimum of 15 minutes and seek immediate
medical attention.
LCD LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY: If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin: Wash area off completely with plenty of
water. Remove contaminated clothing. If liquid crystal gets into your eye: Flush the affected eye with clean water and then seek
medical attention. If liquid crystal is swallowed: Flush your mouth thoroughly with water. Drink large quantities of water and
induce vomiting. Then seek medical attention.
• GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS – Charger should be grounded to reduce risk of electric
shock. Charger is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
The battery charger is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in
Figure A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the plug illustrated in Figures B and C may be used to connect this plug to a
two-pole receptacle as shown in Figure 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 the center screw of the outlet is grounded. The green-colored rigid
ear or lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. Make certain it is grounded. If necessary,
replace the 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.
DANGER – Never alter AC cord or plug provided – if it will not fit outlet, have proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock.
Preparing to Charge
1. Determine voltage of battery to be charged by referring to the vehicle manual.
2. 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.
3. Clean battery terminals. Do not allow corrosion to come in contact with eyes.
4. 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.
5. Study all battery manufacturer's specific precautions, such as removing or not removing cell caps while charging, and
recommended rates of charge.
6. Remove battery completely from boat/airplane or any confined area before charging.
