• CAUTION! To reduce the risk of injury, charge only 6V or 12V lead-acid
batteries (wet, AGM and gel). Other battery types or voltage levels
can lead to the battery bursting and cause injuries to persons and
damage to property.
• The use of accessories that are not recommended or sold by the
manufacturer of the battery charger can lead to a risk of fire, electric
shock or injury.
• Make sure that the cable is laid such that people do not step on it,
trip over it or damage or weigh it down in any other way.
• Only use an extension cable if this is absolutely necessary. The use
of an unsuitable extension cable can lead to a risk of fire and electric
shock. If an extension cable has to be used, make sure that:
a. there are the same number of pins on the extension cable plug in
the same size and shape as those on the charger plug.
b. the extension cable is properly wired and is in a good electrical
condition.
• In the case of lead-acid batteries with a battery voltage lower than
3V for a long time, it is advisable to replace the battery if this charger
is unable to increase the voltage.
triangle WARNING
• Do not charge any 24 V lead batteries.
• Explosive gases can form when lead batteries are charged. Please
ensure sufficient ventilation, and avoid fire, naked flames and smok-
ing. Because explosive gases can form, it is important to ensure that
the pole terminals are only disconnected when the charger is un-
plugged!
• Battery acid is corrosive. If battery acid gets into your eyes or onto
your hands, rinse them immediately with a lot of water and see a
doctor.
• Ensure that the pole terminals are connected with the correct polar-
ity (red pole terminal to the positive pole; black pole terminal to the
negative pole).
• Prevent the pole terminals from touching one another when the
mains plug is plugged in because this could result in an electric arc
due to a short circuit.
triangleSAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• If you are working near a lead-acid battery, there should be someone
within earshot or nearby who can come to your aid.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap ready in case battery acid
comes into contact with your skin, clothing or eyes.
• Wear full eye protection and protective clothing. Avoid touching your
eyes when you are working near the battery.
• If battery acid comes into contact with your skin or clothing, wash it
off immediately with soap and water. If acid gets into your eyes, rinse
your eyes out immediately for at least 10 minutes with cold running
water and see a doctor immediately.
• Take off personal items made of metal, such as rings, bracelets,
necklaces and watches, when you are working with a lead-acid
battery. A lead-acid battery can create a short-circuit current that
is high enough to weld a ring or similar to metal, which can lead to
serious burns.
