Connecting To The Battery

Before you connect to the battery(s), make sure that the solar battery charger is not connected to any accessories. DO NOT CONNECT THE Battery Life SOLAR BATTERY CHARGER TO ANY ACCESSORIES UNTIL ALL OTHER CONNECTIONS ARE MADE. If using the Battery Clamp Connector (included) or Eyelet Terminal Connector (sold separately), be certain you have identified the correct polarity of the battery terminals on the battery(s). ACCIDENTALLY CONNECTING THE CHARGER IN REVERSE POLARITY (POSITIVE TO NEGATIVE AND NEGATIVE TO POSITIVE) CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE CHARGER. A REVERSE POLARITY CONDITION COULD GENERATE A SPARK AND CAUSE AN EXPLOSION, WHICH MAY RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK, PERSONAL PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. The POSITIVE battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbols (POS,P,+). The NEGATIVE battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbols (NEG,N,-). If you are having difficulty determining the polarity of the battery terminals, contact the battery manufacturer before proceeding. If you are using the 12V Plug Connector, make sure the 12VDC socket in your vehicle is “active”, when “off”. If the 12VDC socket is not “active” the Battery Life solar battery charger will not be able to provide a charge to the battery.
