This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not approved by the party responsible for compliance could void user's authority
to operate the equipment.

• Don't abuse cord. Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord
from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Pull plug rather than cord when unplugging the unit.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuits or outlets to be
used. Receptacles are available having built in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of
safety.
Extension Cords
• 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 warranty.

• If an extension cord must be used, make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

• Power Cord Safety:
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) as a safety feature. This plug
will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

WARNING: BURST HAZARD: Do not use the unit for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly
used with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage
property. Use the unit for charging/boosting a LEAD-ACID battery only. It is not intended to supply
power to a low-voltage electrical system other than in a starter-motor application.
• This unit was designed for household use only.
• Use of accessories and attachments: The use of any accessory or attachment not recommended by
manufacturer for use with this battery charger could be hazardous.
• Stay alert. Use common sense. Do not operate battery charger when you are tired.
• Do not operate the battery charger near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres.
Motors may spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
WARNING: RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES:
• 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 the utmost importance that each time before using
the battery maintainer you read this manual and follow instructions exactly.
• To reduce the risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by the battery
manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery.
Review cautionary markings on these products and on the engine.
• This equipment employs parts (switches, relays, etc.) that produce arcs or sparks. Therefore, if used
in a garage or enclosed area, the unit MUST be placed not less than 18 inches above the floor.
• THIS UNIT IS NOT FOR USE BY CHILDREN AND SHOULD ONLY BE OPERATED BY ADULTS.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE:
• Do not operate near flammable materials, fumes or gases.
• Do not expose to extreme heat or flames.
• If the vehicle accessory outlet fuse opens (blows) when plugging in this battery charger, do not use
this battery charger with this vehicle accessory outlet.
– Do not repeatedly replace the fuse.
– Do not replace the vehicle accessory outlet fuse with one of a higher amperage rating.
– Never attempt to patch the fuse with tin foil or wire.
• Any of these actions may cause serious electrical damage and/or a fire.
