Disconnect AC power supply before making or breaking DC/battery connections. Battery acid is highly corrosive. Wear

protective clothing and eyewear and avoid contact. In case of accidental contact, wash immediately with soap and water.

Check that the battery posts are not loose; if so, have the battery professionally assessed. If the battery posts are corroded,

clean with a copper wire brush; if greasy or dirty clean with a rag damped in detergent. Use the charger only if the input and

output leads and connectors are in good, undamaged condition. If the input cable is damaged, it is essential to have it

replaced without delay by the manufacturer, his authorised service agent or a qualified workshop, to avoid danger. Protect

your charger from acid and acid fumes and from damp and humid conditions both during use and in storage. Damage

resulting from corrosion, oxidation or internal electrical short-circuiting is not covered by warranty. Distance the charger

from the battery during charging to avoid contamination by or exposure to acid or acidic vapours. If using it in the horizontal

orientation, place the charger on a hard, flat surface, but NOT on plastic, textile or leather. Use the fixing holes provided in

the enclosure base to attach the charger to any convenient, sound vertical surface.

This charger is designed to withstand exposure to liquids accidentally spilled or splashed onto

the casing from above, or to light rainfall. Prolonged exposure to falling rain is inadvisable and longer service life will be

obtained by minimizing such exposure.Failure of the charger due to oxidation resulting from the eventual penetration of

liquid into the electronic components, connectors or plugs,is not covered by warranty.

 2 interchangeable connection sets are available, supplied with the charger is a set of battery

clips for charging the battery off-vehicle, the other connection set comes with metal eyelet lugs for permanent connection to

the battery posts, and re-sealable weatherproof cap on the connector that connects to the charger output cable. This

connection set allows easy and sure connection of the charger to maintain the battery on-vehicle. The resealable

weatherproof cap is designed to protect the connector from dirt and damp whenever the charger is not attached. Consult a

professional service agent for assistance in attaching the metal eyelets to the battery posts. Secure the connector with

weatherproof cap so that it cannot foul any moving part of the vehicle or the cable can be pinched or damaged by sharp

edges. The in-line fuse in the eyelets connection set protects the battery against such accidental shorting across positive

and negative conductors. Replace any burnt fuse only with a similar new fuse of 15A rating.

1. Disconnect AC power supply before making or breaking DC / battery connections.

2. If charging a battery in the vehicle with the battery clips, before making connections, first check that the battery clips

can be safely and securely positioned clear from surrounding wiring, metal tubing or the chassis. Make connections in

the following order: First connect to the battery terminal not connected to the chassis (normally positive), then connect

the other battery clip (normally negative) to the chassis well away from the battery and fuel line. Always disconnect in

reverse sequence.

 When charging a battery out of the vehicle with the battery clips, place it in a well ventilated area. Connect the charger

to the battery: RED clamp to POSITIVE (POS, P or +) terminal and BLACK clamp to NEGATIVE (NEG, N or –) terminal.

Make sure the connections are firm and secure. Good contact is important.
