Battery charging
CAUTION: DO NOT charge the battery if it is
connected to the vehicle - this may seriously
damage the electrical system.
WARNING
Batteries generate explosive gases, contain
corrosive acid and produce levels of electric
current sufficient to cause serious injury.
While charging always heed the following
precautions:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery if the
battery condition indicator is clear or light
yellow.
•
Before charging, disconnect and remove
the battery from the vehicle - charging the
battery with the cables connected may
damage the vehicle's electrical system.
DO NOT charge the battery if it is
suspected of being frozen.
•
Make sure the battery charger leads are
securely clamped to the battery terminals
BEFORE switching on the battery charger.
Do not move the leads once the charger is
switched on.
•
•
•
While charging, shield your eyes or avoid
leaning over the battery and keep the area
around the top of the battery well
ventilated.
Do not allow open flame and/or
incandescent lamps near the battery
(batteries generate inflammable hydrogen
during and after charging).
If the battery is fitted with a condition
indicator, the indicator shows GREEN
when the battery is charged sufficiently.
When charging is finished, switch off the
battery charger BEFORE disconnecting the
leads from the battery terminals.
After charging, leave the battery for an hour
BEFORE reconnection to the vehicle - this will
allow time for explosive gases to disperse,
thereby minimising the risk of fire or
explosion.
NOTE: Be aware that a battery will take longer to
charge in a cold environment.
