13. When connecting the Battery Cables to the battery, avoid creating sparks (always
connect and disconnect clamps exactly as described in rule number 14, below,
and on page 4), especially when the battery is being charged. Explosive gases
are created during charging. Sparking could also damage the vehicle electrical
system.
14. Be certain of the test battery polarity before connecting the test Cable Clamps.
The red Cable Clamp (A) goes to the positive terminal of the battery. The black
Cable Clamp (B) goes to the negative terminal of the battery.
15. When placing the Battery Tester in the vehicle (on the frame, engine, or fender),
take special care that the metal housing of the Battery Tester does not come in
contact with either terminal of the battery or other electrical connections.
16. Do not drop the Battery Tester as it may affect proper operation.
17. Do not smoke or have open flames near the battery.
18. Reversing Battery Tester Cable Clamps on the battery will damage the tester.
19. Do not connect the Battery Tester to the battery while the battery is being charged.
Turn the engine off before connecting.
20. Do not touch the cooling vents on the Battery Tester immediately after
testing the battery. They become very hot.
