It's in the manual.
So where's the earth point in the Volvo's, just clip the negative to the wing or something?

I clip mine to a small metal tag roughly in the centre of the engine bay, just below the windscreen, under the open bonnet. Not sure whether all cars have this, of course. Until I noticed this, getting a good earth, with the short leads, was a bit fiddly.
My CTEC MXS5.0 manual says the charger can be left connected long term. My car's Volvo manual says:
"To maintain the battery in good condition, at least 15 minutes of driving/week is recommended or that the battery is connected to a battery charger with automatic trickle charging."
