J.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:
1.Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P,+) battery post usually has a larger diameter than NEGA- TIVE (NEG, N,
2.Attach at least a
provided).
3.Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P,+) post of battery.
4.Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible - then connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.
5.Do not face battery when making final connection.
6.When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure and break first connection while as far away from battery as practical.
7.A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on board requires equipment specially designed for marine use.

1.These battery chargers are equipped with a self- resetting circuit breaker. This device protects the charger from temporary overloads. In the event of an overload, the circuit breaker will trip open, and after a short cooling off period will reset automatically. this process is known as cycling and can be recognized by an audible clicking sound.
2.These battery chargers are equipped with an electronic control circuit which automatically governs the charge rate to your battery. The charger will satisfactorily charge Maintenance Free and Conventional batteries.

For smaller batteries, 30 AH (ampere hour) or less, use 2 AMP setting. Small batteries may not be able to accept the potential of the 10 or 12 AMP setting. Unconverted energy will result in excess heat which the battery may not be able to dissipate, thus resulting in damage to the battery.
For larger batteries either setting may be used.
