• This memory saver detector is not intended for use by children.
• Do not expose the memory saver detector to rain or snow.
• Do not operate the memory saver detector if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or
otherwise damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service person.
• Inspect the battery for a cracked or broken case or cover. If the battery is damaged, do not
use the memory saver detector.
• Do not disassemble the memory saver detector; take it to a qualified service person when
service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

turer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Review the cautionary

PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Wear complete eye protection and protective clothing when working near lead-acid batteries.
Always have someone nearby for help.
• Have plenty of fresh water, soap and baking soda nearby
• for use, in case battery acid contacts your eyes, skin or clothing. Wash immediately with soap
and water and seek medical attention.
• If battery acid comes into contact with eyes, flush eyes immediately for at least 10 minutes
and get medical attention.
• Neutralize any acid spills thoroughly with baking soda before attempting to clean up.
• Remove all personal metal items from your body, such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and

metal, causing a severe burn.
• Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of the battery or engine.
