First Aid - Black & Decker BC6BDWCA Manuel D'instructions

• NEVER ATTEMPT CHARGE A FROZEN BATTERY.
• Do not charge the battery while the engine is operating.
• Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
• Vehicles that have on-board computerized systems may be damaged if vehicle battery is jump-started. Before
jump-starting, read the vehicle's owner's manual to confirm that external-starting assistance is suitable.
• When working with lead acid batteries, always make sure someone is close enough to provide immediate
assistance in case of accident or emergency.
• Always have protective eyewear when using this product: contact with battery acid may cause blindness and/or
severe burns. Be aware of first aid procedures in case of accidental contact with battery acid.
• Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin.
• If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water for at least 10 minutes and get
medical attention immediately.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of vehicle battery, engine or battery maintainer.
• Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches when working with a lead acid
battery. A lead acid battery can produce a short circuit current high enough to weld a ring, or similar metal
object, to skin causing a severe burn.
• Be extra cautious to avoid dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or
another electrical part, and that may cause an explosion.
• Never allow battery acid to come in contact with this unit.
• Do not operate this unit in a closed area or restrict ventilation in any way.
• Always turn the battery charger off by unplugging it when not in use.
• Do not open the battery charger — there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening the battery charger will
void manufacturer's warranty.
• Operate battery charger only as described in this Instruction Manual.
• Check battery charger and components periodically for wear and tear. Return to manufacturer for replacement
of worn or defective parts immediately.
• IMPORTANT: This unit features an aluminum heat sink, which is used for heat dissipation and is located
at the base of the unit. Never touch the heat sink while the unit is operating and never allow the bottom of
the unit to contact flammable materials while operating.
DC ACCESSORY PLUG SAFETY
• WARNING! NEVER connect this unit to a positive grounded vehicle by the DC accessory plug.
• Make sure that the vehicle's accessory socket is clean and free of debris before connecting the unit.
• WARNING – Risk of fire! If the vehicle accessory outlet fuse opens (blows) when plugging in this battery
charger, do not use this battery charger with this vehicle accessory outlet:
– Do not repeatedly replace the fuse.
– Do not replace the vehicle accessory outlet fuse with one of a higher amperage rating.
– Never attempt to patch the fuse with tin foil or wire.
Any of these actions may cause serious electrical damage and/or a fire.
