Follow These Steps When Battery Is Installed In Vehicle; Follow These Steps When Battery Is Outside Vehicle - Thorsen 19-014 Manual Del Usuario

POSITIVE GROUNDED Vehicle:
• Connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from the battery charger to
the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) ungrounded post of the battery. Connect the
POSITIVE (RED) clip to the vehicle chassis or engine block away
from the battery. Do not connect the clip to the carburetor, fuel lines
or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the
frame or engine block.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE:

A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY
EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
1. Position the AC and DC cables to reduce the risk of damage by the hood,
door and moving or hot engine parts.
2. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys and other parts that can cause injury.
3. Check the polarity of the battery posts. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post
usually has a larger diameter then the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
4. Determine which post of the battery is grounded (connected) to the chassis.
If the negative post is grounded to the chassis (as in most vehicles), see step 5.
If the positive post is grounded to the chassis, see step 6.
5. For a negative-grounded vehicle, connect the POSITIVE (RED) clip from
the battery charger to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) ungrounded post of
the battery. Connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to the vehicle chassis
or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect the clip to the carburetor,
fuel lines or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of
the frame or engine block.
6. For a positive-grounded vehicle, connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from
the battery charger to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) ungrounded post of the battery.
Connect the POSITIVE (RED) clip to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from
the battery. Do not connect the clip to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal
body parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
7. When disconnecting the charger, turn all switches to off, disconnect the AC cord,
remove the clip from the vehicle chassis and then remove the clip from the
battery terminal.
8. See CALCULATING CHARGE TIME for length of charge information.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE:

A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY
EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
1. Check the polarity of the battery posts. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post
usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
