7.5Do not face the battery when making the final connection.
7.6When disconnecting the charger, always do so in the reverse order of the connecting procedure and break the first connection while as far away from the battery as practical.
7.7A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it onboard requires equipment specially designed for marine use.
8.battery charging - ac connections
8.1This battery charger is for use on nominal 100 - 240 volt circuits.
DANGER – Never alter AC cord or plug provided – if it does not fit the outlet, have proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock.

aIf the input rating of a charger is given in watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage rating by the voltage rating ‒ for example:
1250 watts/125 volts = 10 amperes
