7.3Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery.

7.4Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as pos- sible – then connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.

7.5Do not face battery when making final connection.

7.6When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of con- necting procedure and break first connection while as far away from bat- tery as practical.
