GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTIONS
This battery charger is for use on a nominal
120 volt circuit and has a grounded plug.
The charger must be grounded, to reduce
the risk of electric shock. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. The plug
pins must fit the receptacle (outlet). Do not
use with an ungrounded system.
NOTE: Pursuant to Canadian Regulations,
use of an adapter plug is not allowed in
Canada. Use of an adapter plug in the
United States is not recommended and
should not be used.
ON/OFF SWITCH

• BOOST or CHARGE/MAINTAIN – When
the switch is in this position, the Rate
Selection button can be set to either the
6A<>2A Charging/Maintaining or the 40
amp Boost setting.
• ENGINE START – When the switch is in this
position, the Engine Start LED will illuminate.
DIGITAL DISPLAY
The Digital Display gives a digital indication
of voltage, amperage or time. The display will
show the battery VOLTAGE when the
charger is not charging a battery. When it
