• Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur. When you notice liquid on the
batteries, carefully wipe the liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
• In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below.
Warning! Battery fluid is a diluted sulphuric acid and may cause personal injury or
damage to property. In case of skin contact, immediately rinse with water. If redness, pain
or irritation occurs seek medical attention. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with
clean water and seek immediate medical attention.
• When disposing of batteries, follow the instructions given in the section "Protecting the
environment".
• Add distilled water in each cell until the battery acid reaches the level specified by the
battery manufacturer. This helps to purge excess gas from the cells. Do not overfill. For a
battery without cell caps (maintenance free), carefully follow the manufacturer's charging
instructions.
• Study all the battery manufacturer's specific precautions, such as removing or not
removing cell caps while charging, and the recommended charging rates.
• Make sure that the initial charging rate does not exceed the battery manufacturer's
requirement.
• WARNING:
Risk of explosive gas mixtures. Working in the vicinity of a lead-acid
battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal battery operation.
For this reason, it is of utmost importance that each time, before using your battery
charger, you read this manual and follow the instructions exactly.
• Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may result in a risk
of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
• An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper
extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock, and will void the warranty.
PeRSonAl SAFeTY
Wear complete eye protection and suitable clothing to give protection from contact with
battery fluid.
Avoid touching the eyes while working with a battery. Acid, acid particles or corrosion may
get into the eyes.
Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when
working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short circuit current
high enough to cause a severe burn.
Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal object onto the battery. This
might cause sparks or short-circuit the battery or other electrical part, which can cause an
explosion.
