Racers Edge SureCharge 2000 LiPo Operating Manual - page 5
WARNINGS AND SAFETY NOTES
These warnings and safety notes are particularly important. Please follow the instructions for
maximum safety; otherwise the charger and battery can be damaged, or worse, can cause a fire.
Never leave the charger unattended when it is connected to its power supply. If any
•
malfunction is found, TERMINATE THE PROCESS AT ONCE and refer to the operation
manual.
Keep the charger away from dust, damp, rain, heat, direct sunshine and vibration. Never
•
drop it!
The allowable input voltage is 11-16V DC.
•
This charger and the battery should be put on a heat-resistant, nonflammable and non-
•
conductive surface. Never place them on a car seat, carpet or similar. Keep all flammable
volatile materials away from the operating area.
Make sure you know the specifications of the battery to be charged or discharged to ensure
•
it meets the requirements of this charger. If the program is set up incorrectly, the battery and
charger may be damaged. Overcharging can cause lipo batteries to expand, and a small risk
of fire is possible. Be sure to use a lipo-sac, like the Racers Edge Li-pouch, to provide extra
safety measure while charging you batteries. This warranty is not valid for any damage
or subsequent damage arising as a result of a misuse or failure to observe the procedures
outlined in this manual.
