सुरक्षितता माहिती
Always prioritize safety when operating the battery charger. Read and understand all warnings before use.
- वायुवीजन: Ensure adequate ventilation when charging, especially for lead-acid batteries, as they can vent gases.
- Spark Prevention: Avoid sparks near the battery. Connect and disconnect clamps in the correct order (negative first when disconnecting, positive first when connecting).
- उलट ध्रुवीयता: The charger has built-in protection against reversed polarity. If connected incorrectly, an indicator light will illuminate. Correct the connection immediately.
- जास्त गरम होणे: The charger features overheating protection. If it becomes too hot, it will automatically reduce output or shut down.
- शॉर्ट-सर्किट: The charger is protected against short-circuits.
- पाणी/धूळ प्रतिकार: The IP65 rating means it is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. Do not submerge the charger.
- मुले आणि पाळीव प्राणी: Keep the charger and battery out of reach of children and pets.
