FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. WARNING: A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO
REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
1.) Position AC and DC cords to reduce risk of damage by hood, door, or moving engine part.
2.) Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
3.) Check polarity of battery terminals. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery terminal usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery terminal.
4.) Determine which battery terminal is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If negative battery terminal is grounded to chassis (as in most vehicles), see Step 5. If
positive battery terminal is grounded to the chassis, see Step 6.
5.) For negative-grounded vehicle only, connect POSITIVE (RED) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector from battery charger to POSITIVE (POS, P. +) ungrounded
battery terminal. Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Connect to a heavy
gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
6.) For positive-grounded vehicle only, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector from battery charger to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -)
ungrounded battery terminal. Connect POSITIVE (RED) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Connect to a
heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
7.) Connect the battery charger into a suitable electrical outlet. Do not face the battery when making this connection.
8.) When disconnecting the battery charger, disconnect in the reverse sequence, removing the negative first (or positive first for positive ground systems).
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. WARNING: A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
1.) Check polarity of battery terminals. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery terminal usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery terminal.
2.) Attach at least a 24-inch-long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery terminal.
3.) Connect POSITIVE (RED) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector from battery charger to POSITIVE (POS, P. +) battery terminal.
4.) Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible - then connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector to free
end of cable.
5.) Connect the battery charger into a suitable electrical outlet. Do not face the battery when making this connection.
