Figure 1.2.1 – Different types of hazard and caution symbols

1.1 - Safety Notices

Safety notices appear throughout this manual to alert the user to important information regarding proper

installation, operation, maintenance and storage of the unit. These notices, as illustrated below, contain a

key word that indicates the level of hazard and a triangular icon that indicates the speci c type of hazard.

WARNING Indicates a condition, operating procedure or practice, which if not

adhered to could result in serious injury or death.

CAUTION Indicates a condition or operating procedure, which if not strictly

adhered to could result in damage or destruction of equipment.

NOTE Indicates a condition, operating procedure or practice, which is

essential to highlight.

1.2 - Symbols

The following symbols will appear within the warning triangles to alert the user to the speci c type of danger

or hazard.

General Warning Electrical Hazard Explosion Hazard Fire Hazard

Battery Warning Guard from Moisture

Section 1 – Safety Review

TI2000-054 Transformer

NOTE: This Transformer is for Indoor use only.

1.3 – Hazards

WARNING Shock Hazard Potential

Severe injury or death from electrical shock can occur when damp electrical plugs are connected to the

unit. Make sure the unit is turned off before making any connections. Failure to use proper grounding can

cause potential shock hazard! In different countries, the power cord may require the use of a plug adapter

to achieve plug style compatibility for operation. Use only adapters with proper grounding mechanism.

CAUTION Unit Damage Potential

Severe injury or death from electrical shock may occur if either the

user or the unit is wet while the operating unit is connected to a power

source. Be sure to disconnect AC power from the AC source if the unit

has come into contact with water. If AC Input Circuit Breaker has tripped

due to water in ltration, DO NOT try to reset it with the AC line voltage

attached.

(Secured to Outlet)

Figure 1.3.3 – Improper Ground

Plug with No Grounding Pin

The unit will be damaged if unapproved AC power is applied. Check

the Input Voltage Selector Switch window (outlined in blue) to ensure

the switch setting (115V or 230V) matches the AC power source

(hangar wall,  ight line AC power) prior to connecting the unit for

recharging.

1.4 – Important Safety Precautions

WARNING Fire/Explosion Hazard Potential

Severe injury or death from  re or explosion can occur if electrical sparks are produced near fuel vapors. DO

NOT CONNECT AC Power Supply WHILE FUELING. AC power functions of unit shall not be operated during

any fuel handling operation. Power output is restricted to DC power only.

1.5 – Extreme Environments

CAUTION Unit Damage Potential

The unit is equipped with a charger temperature switch that automatically disables the unit when the internal

temperature exceeds 150°F (65°C). This protects the unit from overheating and damage. If the unit shuts

down, move the unit into a cooler environment such as shade or air conditioning when possible. Perform a

full function test after the unit has been allowed to cool prior to use.
