Battery
The battery must be charged for a minimum of six hours before using it the first time. If the battery
completely discharges, recharging may take up to 18 hours. When not in use, it is recommended to
keep the battery plugged in to maintain a maximum charge and extend the battery life. The charger
will not overcharge the batteries.
General Battery Warnings
• Do not connect accessories to the battery; this will cause premature battery failure.
• Unauthorized modification could create a hazardous condition and result in serious injury.
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid, which can burn eyes, skin, clothes, etc. Use caution! Always wear
gloves when working with batteries. If contact occurs, flush immediately with water and get medical
attention. Protect surfaces from battery damage by placing batteries on rubber or acid-safe plastic
surfaces.
• Never place a battery near an open flame or heat.
• To prevent electrical shock, do not touch non-insulated parts of the charger output connectors,
battery connectors or battery terminals. Do not use connectors that are cracked, corroded, or do not
make adequate electrical contact. Use of damaged or defective connectors could result in fire or
electrical shock.
• Keep sparks, flame and smoking materials away from batteries.
• Batteries can supply a large amount of current. Do not wear jewelry or watches when working on
the batteries.

• Unplug the charging unit from the AC power supply source before attempting any maintenance
or cleaning.
