Use The Following Precautions When You Work Near
Lead-Acid Batteries:
• Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to
come to your aid if you have an accident.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid
contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
• Wear complete eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching
your eyes while working near a battery. If battery acid contacts your skin
or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters an eye,
immediately flood the eye with running cold water for at least ten (10)
minutes and seek medical attention as soon as possible.
• Be extra cautious when handling metal tools around a battery. If you
drop a metal tool near a battery it might spark or create a short circuit
between the battery terminals and some other metal part. Either event
may cause a dangerous electrical shock hazard, a fire, or even an
explosion, resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.
• Never smoke or allow an open spark or flame in the vicinity of the
battery or engine.
• Remove all personal items made of metal, such as, rings, bracelets,
necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-
acid battery can produce a short-circuited current high enough to weld a
metal ring or other piece of jewelry, causing a severe burn.
• This battery charger is for charging LEAD-ACID BATTERIES ONLY. DO
NOT USE THE BATTERY CHARGER FOR DRY-CELL BATTERIES THAT
ARE COMMONLY USED WITH HOME APPLIANCES. THESE TYPES
OF BATTERIES MAY BURST AND MAY CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE,
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
•NEVER charge a frozen battery.
Before Charging.
• To avoid an electric arc (or spark), turn off or disconnect all of the
accessories in the boat or vehicle. Always remove the cable that is
connected to grounded terminal from battery first.
• Make sure the area around the battery is well-ventilated while the
battery is being charged. If necessary, use a non-metallic material to fan
away the gas in the area.
• If necessary, clean the battery terminals. Be careful to keep the
corrosion and other debris from coming in contact with your skin or
eyes.
• If the battery is not a sealed battery, add distilled water to each cell
(if necessary) until the battery acid solution reaches the level specified
by battery manufacturer. Do not overfill. For a battery without cell caps,
such as a valve regulated lead-acid battery (VRLA), carefully follow the
battery manufacturer's charging instructions.
• Before charging, carefully read the battery manufacturer's specific
precautions and recommended rates of charge.
• Determine the voltage of the battery by referring to the boat's or
vehicle's owner's manual and make sure that the battery charger has
compatible voltages.
