minutes and get medical attention immediately.
2.5 NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
2.6 Be extra cautious, to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might
spark or short-circuit battery or other electrical part that may cause explosion.
2.7 Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches
when working with a lead-acid battery.Alead-acid battery can produce a
short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a
severe burn.
2.8 Use the charger for charging only 12V lead-acid or lithium ion LiFePO4
rechargeable batteries with rated capacity of 22-59Ah. It is not intended to
supply power to a low voltage electrical system other than in a starter-motor
application. Do not use battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that are
commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause
injury to persons and damage to property.
2.9 NEVER charge a frozen battery.
3. PREPARING TO CHARGE
3.1If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to charge, always remove grounded
terminal from battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off, so as
not to cause an arc.
3.2Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being charged.
3.3Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with
eyes.
3.4Add distilled water in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by battery
manufacturer. Do not overfill. For a battery without removable cell caps, such as
valve regulated lead acid batteries, carefully follow manufacturer’s recharging
instructions.
