Follow These Steps When Battery Is Outside Vehicle; Grounding And Ac Power Cord Connections - DSR INC100 Manuel D'utilisation

7. 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:
7.1 Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE
(POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger
diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) post.
7.2 Attach at least a 24-inch long 4-gauge
(AWG) insulated battery cable to
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) battery post.
7.3 Connect POSITIVE (RED) clip to
POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery.

8. GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTIONS

WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.
8.1 This unit is for use on a nominal 120 volt
circuit and has a grounded plug. The unit
must be grounded, to reduce the risk of
electric shock. The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances. The plug pins must fit
the receptacle (outlet). Do not use with an
ungrounded system.
8.2 DANGER: Never alter the AC cord or
plug provided – if it does not fit the outlet,
have a proper grounded outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. An improper
connection can result in a risk of an
electric shock or electrocution.
NOTE: Pursuant to Canadian
Regulations, use of an adapter plug
is not allowed in Canada. Use of an
adapter plug in the United States is not
recommended and should not be used.
7.4 Position yourself and free end of cable as
far away from battery as possible – then
connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to free
end of cable.
7.5 Do not face battery when making final
connection.
7.6 Connect the unit's AC supply cord to
electrical outlet and press the START/
STOP button to turn the output on.
7.7 When disconnecting the unit, press the
START/STOP button to turn the output off,
disconnect the AC cord, remove the clip
from the cable attached to the negative
battery terminal and then remove the clip
from the positive battery terminal.
8.3 USING AN EXTENSION CORD
The use of an extension cord is not
recommended. If you must use an
extension cord, follow these guidelines:
• Pins on plug of extension cord must be
the same number, size, and shape as
those of plug on the unit.
• Ensure that the extension cord is properly
wired and in good electrical condition.
• Wire size must be large enough for the
AC ampere rating of unit as specified:
▫ 100 feet (30.5 meters) long or less –
use a 12 gauge (3.31 mm
extension cord.
▫ Over 100 feet (30.5 meters) long –
use an 8 gauge (8.36 mm
extension cord.
