Important Safety Warnings

Proposition 65

Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain chemicals, including lead. These materials are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and other reproductive harm.

Personal Precaution

Only use charger as intended. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid in case of emergency. Have a supply of clean water and soap nearby in the case of battery acid contamination. Wear complete eye protection and protective clothing while working near a battery. Always wash hands after handling batteries and related materials. Do not handle or wear any metal objects when working with batteries including; tools, watches or jewelry. If metal is dropped onto battery, it may spark or create a short circuit resulting in electrical shock, fire, explosion which may result in injury, death or property damage.

Minors

If the charger is intended by “Purchaser” to be used by a minor, purchasing adult agrees to provide detailed instructions and warnings to any minor prior to use. Failure to do so is the sole responsibility of the “Purchaser,” who agrees to indemnify NOCO for any unintended use or misuse by a minor.

Choking Hazard

Accessories may present a choking hazard to children. Do not leave children unattended with charger or any accessory. The charger is not a toy.

Handling

Handle charger with care. The charger can become damaged if impacted. Do not use a damaged charger, including, but not limited to, cracks to the casing or damaged cables. Do not use charger with a damaged power cord or with loose electrical outlets. Humidity and liquids may damage charger. Do not handle charger or any electrical components near any liquid. Store and operate charger in dry locations. Do not operate charger if it becomes wet. If charger is already operating and becomes wet, disconnect it from the electrical outlet and battery and discontinue use immediately. Do not disconnect the charger from an electrical outlet by pulling on the AC cable.

Modifications

Do not attempt to alter, modify or repair any part of the charger. Disassembling charger may cause injury, death or damage to property. If charger becomes damaged, malfunctions or comes in contact with any liquid, discontinue use, and contact NOCO. Any modifications to the charger will void your warranty.

Accessories

This charger is only approved for use with NOCO accessories. NOCO is not responsible for user safety or damage when using accessories not approved by NOCO.

Extension Cords

Using an improper extension cord could result in fire and electrical shock which may result in injury, death or damage to device and property. If extension cord must be used, make sure that: (1) The pins on the extension cord plug have the same number, size, and shape as those of the AC power cord plug on the charger; (2) The extension cord is properly wired and is in good condition; (3) The wire size is as specified in Table 1 below.

Recommended Minimum AWG Size For Extension Cords For Battery Chargers

*If the input rating of a charger is given in watts rather than amperes, the corresponding ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage rating by the voltage rating - for example: 1250W+125V = 10 Amperes

Location

Locate the charger as far away from the battery as possible. Do not place the charger directly above the battery as gases from battery will corrode and damage charger. Prevent battery acid from coming in contact with the charger. Do not operate the charger in a closed-in area or an area with restricted ventilation. Do not set a battery on top of charger. Position cable leads to avoid accidental damage by moving vehicle parts (including hoods and doors), moving engine parts (including fan blades, belts, and pulleys), or what could become a hazard that may cause injury or death.

Operating Temperature

The charger is designed to work in ambient temperatures between 32° and 104° F (0° and 40° C) and stored in temperatures between 0° and 130° F (-17° and 54° C). Do not store or operate outside of these temperature ranges. Do not charge a frozen battery. Discontinue use of charger immediately if the battery becomes excessively warm.

Storage

Do not use or store your charger in areas with high concentrations of dust or airborne materials. Store your charger on flat; secure surfaces so it's not prone to falling. Store your charger in a dry location.

Compatibility

The charger is only compatible with lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries (excluding model G750, which is for lead-acid batteries only). Do not attempt to use charger with any other type of battery. Charging other battery chemistries may result in injury, death or property damage. Contact the battery manufacturer prior to attempting to charge the battery. Do not charge a battery if you are unsure of the battery's specific chemistry or voltage. The charger features specialized charge modes for charging specialized batteries. Failure to understand the operation of the charging modes may result in injury, death or property damage.

Lithium Charging

Misusing a lithium-ion battery may cause the battery to get hot, rupture, or ignite, causing serious injury, death or property damage. Not all lithium-ion batteries are the same chemistry or contain battery management systems. Contact the lithium-ion battery manufacturer before attempting to charge. The “Purchaser” assumes all risks associated with lithium-ion batteries.

Cleaning

Unplug the charger before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Clean and dry charger immediately if it comes in contact with liquid or any type of contaminant. Before cleaning, disconnect charger from electrical outlet and battery. Use a soft, lint-free (microfiber) cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings.

Explosive Atmospheres

Obey all signs and instructions. Do not operate charger in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, including fueling areas or areas which contain chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders.

High-Consequence Activities

This device is not intended for use where the failure of the device could lead to injury, death or severe environmental damage.
