EXPLANATION:

The market shift from vented or “wet cell” to valve regulated lead acid (VLRA) batteries has prompted Argus to

update its factory default settings to accomodate the requirements of these batteries.

The changes listed below are being implemented immediately as new factory default settings in all Argus power

products. However, as always, customer requested settings will take precedent over factory defaults.

This addendum is to accompany all new Argus user manuals. Questions about the new factory default settings

should be directed to our toll free 1-888-GO ARGUS Technical Support line.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery charger

models RST 48/50, 48/30, 24/50, 24/100, 12/50 & 12/100.

1. Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery

charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.

2. CAUTION - To reduce risk of injury, charge only lead-acid type rechargeable batteries.

Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.

3. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.

4. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may re-

sult in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

5. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in

any way; take it to a qualified service center.

6. Do not disassemble charger; take it to a qualified service center when service or repair is re-

quired. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire.
