INSTRUCTION FOR USE
BATTERY CHARGING
NOTE
Charge the batteries when battery level is low.
CAUTION!
Keeping the batteries charged can extend their life.
CAUTION!
When the batteries are discharged, charge them as
soon as possible, as that can shorten their life. Check
WET battery electrolyte level at least once a week.
WARNING!
WET battery charging produces highly explosive
hydrogen gas. Charge the batteries in well-ventilated
areas and away from flames. Do not smoke while
charging the batteries. Always keep the tank open
while charging the batteries.
WARNING!
Pay careful attention when charging the batteries as
there may be battery fluid leakages that is corrosive. If
it comes in contact with skin or eyes, rinse thoroughly
with water and consult a physician.
