Explosion and fire hazard
lHydrogen gas may form when charging the battery. If this gas gets in contact with open fire (flame,
embers, sparks) may result in an explosion. Please ensure the area is free from open fire when using this
battery charger.
lAlways ensure sufficient ventilation.
lAlways check to see if the correct Voltage LED appears on the charger. It should match the Voltage of the
battery that you are charging.
lOnly connect and disconnect the battery connecting cables when the charger is disconnected from the
mains.
lNever cover the device when in use as this may lead to damage from extreme heat generated from the
charger.
lIf you notice smoke or an unusual odour, immediately stop using the device.
lDo not use the charger close to where there are substances that are explosive or flammable stored nearby
(e.g. petrol or solvents).
Risk of electrical shock
lThe charger may interfere with the operation of any active electronic implants. This includes pacemakers.
Hence, posing a personal hazard.
lEnsure no water or any other liquid gets in contact with the charger. Water is highly conductive, and poses
an electrically risk.
lEnsure that all plugs and cables are free of moisture.
lNever connect the device to the mains with wet or moist hands.
lNever touch both terminals at once when the device is in use.
lUnplug from mains before connecting or disconnecting the charging cable to/from the battery, or when the
device is no longer being used.
lRemove all device cables from the battery before attempting to drive your vehicle.
lAlways unplug the device by the plug, and not the cable. This prevents the cable being damaged.
lDo not use the device if it is damaged. Any damage to the power cable, the device or the charging cables
increase the risk of electrical shock.
lDo not attempt to disassemble or repair the device. Please take the defective charger to a specialist for
repair.
lNever allow the two connectors from the charging cable to touch each other when the mains is connected
and switched on. This risks a short circuit.
lMake sure you do not connect the connectors or the battery poles through conductive objects (e.g. tools).
lNever use the cable to carry or pull the device.
Risk of injury
lNever attempt to charge non-rechargeable, damaged or frozen batteries.
lDo not use this device to charge dry cell batteries. This could lead to a burst and will result in personal
injury and property damage.
Risk of damage
lNever place the charger over or near the battery to be charged. Gases from the battery could damage the
unit. Place the device as far from the battery as the connecting cables will allow.
lNever operate the device if it has been dropped or damaged in any other way. For inspection and repair,
take it to a qualified electrician.
