REPLACING THE FUSE

The charger’s fuse blows if you connect

the DC cord’s clamps to the wrong bat-

tery terminals. This protects the charger,

the battery pack, and your vehicle’s

electrical system. We recommend that

you keep some spare 5-amp, 1

slow blow fuses (such as Cat. No. 270-

1027) with your charger, in case the

fuse blows.

Caution:

Do not use a fuse with ratings

other than those specified here. Doing

so might damage your charger.

If the CHARGE indicator does not light

or the charger does not operate when

you turn it on, follow these steps to

check and replace the fuse.

1. Disconnect and remove the battery

pack from the charger.

2. Unplug the AC power cord or

remove the DC power cord from

your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter

socket.

3. Twist off the fuse holder’s black cap

and carefully remove the inner tip,

the spring, and the outer tip. If the

fuse is blown, replace it with an

identically rated 5-amp fuse.

Note:

Blown fuses usually are dis-

colored or have a broken center

wire.

4. Replace the outer tip, the spring, the

inner tip, and the black cap. Tighten

the cap securely.
