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, carefully follow
manufacturer's recharging 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. Determine voltage of battery by referring to car
owner's manual and make sure that output voltage
selector switch is set at correct voltage.
4. Do not operate charger in a closed area or restrict
ventilation in any way.
5. Do not set a battery on top of charger.
6. Locate charger at least 18" above the floor.
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.
To reduce explosion risk, never connect both clips
directly to the battery. When making each connection,
twist or rock clip back and forth several times to make a
good connection and to reduce the risk of a clip slipping
off and creating a spark. Do not twist or rock clip on
the battery after the second clip connection is made.
