engine block away from battery keeping the battery terminal well removed there from.
Do not connect any charger clips to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to
a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
Connect charger AC supply cord to electric outlet.
When disconnecting charger, turn switches (if supplied) to off, disconnect charger from AC power,
remove clip from vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from battery terminal. See operating
instructions for length of charge information.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR
BATTERY:
Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS., P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter
than NEGATIVE (NEG., N, -) post. Some batteries are equipped with 'Wing-Nut' terminals
allowing for easy placement of the terminals to these posts.
Attach at least a 24-inch long 18-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to NEGATIVE (NEG., N,
-) battery post.
Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger terminal to POSITIVE (POS., P, +) post of battery.
Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible - then connect
NEGATIVE (BLACK) terminal to free end of cable.
Do not face battery when making final connection.
Connect charger AC supply cord to electrical outlet
When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure and
break first connection while as far away from battery as practical
A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on board requires

MAIN FEATURES:
Automatic Switching Mode Battery Charger & Maintainer
Easy to Use: The Battery Charger is easy to operate and requires no technical experience.
Charge & Maintain - Automatic Charge: On power up, the charger will automatically go to
charging system, then could be left unattended and never overcharge your batteries.
Charge & Maintain - Automatic Maintenance: When the battery is charged to "full" state,
the charger automatically switches to maintain the battery. It will monitor the battery voltage
and continue to peak performance to the battery.
Short circuit protection: The charger will automatically turn off when the output short circuit
occurred and prevent any damage
Reverse polarity protection : The charger can automatically shut off when the output polarity
is reversed and without damage
SAFETY & TEMPERATURE FEATURES:
Never overcharge your battery
Output short circuit protection
Output overload protection: The charger employs the use of a ‘Solid State Circuit Interrupter’
that opens under severe overload. This condition may occur if attempting to charge any
severely discharged or heavily sulfated battery. Once the Interrupter opens, the charger will
stop charging for a short period and then resume charging automatically and the yellow. L.E.D.
will be OFF, until resume charging. Overloading could be due to an external load, remove the
load condition prior to attempting to recharge the battery.
Reserve Battery / Overload Condition: The charger has reverse battery and short circuit
protection. If a reverse battery condition exists (White L.E.D. will turn RED, only, while output
leads are connected backwards), simply unplug charger from AC power and properly remake
the connections as described in this manual
