If the clamps are properly connected with regard to polarity, a beep
will sound and the LCD Screen will show the following, indicating
the unit is in Standby Mode:
The Digital Display shows the voltage of the connected battery.
The bars on the Battery Icon represent the charge level of the
connected battery. The Clamp Icons, Battery Icon and the Battery
Type Indicator light solid.
NOTES:
The charger allows you to select the appropriate battery type (WET,
AGM or GEL) for efficient and safe charging. The default selection
is "WET" battery type. Press the Battery Type Selector Button until
the desired battery type indicator lights. A beep will sound for each
press of the button.
CAUTION – To reduce the risk of injury or property damage:
Selecting an incorrect battery type may adversely affect charging
performance. Refer to the battery manufacturer's specifications
to determine the battery type. Make this selection BEFORE
proceeding to the next step, as battery type cannot be selected
once charging has begun.
In Standby Mode, the Digital Display shows the voltage (V) of the
connected battery by default. Press the Battery Voltage Button
once to show the charge status of the battery as a percentage (%)

of full. Pressing the Voltage Button cycles through different standby
status views of the connected battery.
IMPORTANT: If the battery clamps are connected incorrectly
with regard to polarity, the LCD Screen shows the following:
The (empty) Battery Icon and the Clamp Icons light solid. The Alarm
Icon, Reverse Polarity Icons, and the "+" and "–" signs on both the
Clamp Icons and the Battery Icon flash. The unit emits a continuous
warning sound until the clamps are disconnected. Remove the
clamps and then reconnect the clamps properly.
3. When the clamps are connected correctly, press the Battery Charge
Button. The LCD Screen will show the following:
The Digital Display shows the output current that is charging the
battery. The Clamp Icons and the Battery Type Indicator light solid
and the bars on the Battery Icon will change from empty to solid
(bottom to top) to indicate the unit is in Charging Mode.

NOTES:
A. The maximum output current is approximately 70A.
B. If the battery is already charged to nearly full capacity, the
unit's output current may be automatically reduced by a few
amperes, despite the maximum output current rating of 70A.
C. The charging process will start automatically approximately
one minute after the unit is properly connected to a battery if
no other actions are taken.
D. The charging process can be terminated by pressing the
Battery Charge Button again to stop the function. The unit
will revert to the Standby Mode. It will automatically restart the
charging process after approximately one minute if no other
actions are taken.
E. In Charging Mode, the Digital Display shows the output
current (A) that is charging the battery by default. Press the
Battery Voltage Button once to show the voltage (V) of the
connected battery. Press the Battery Voltage Button again to
show the charge status of the battery as a percentage (%)
of full. Pressing the Voltage Button cycles through different
charging status views of the connected battery.
F. Once the unit is in Charging Mode, the Battery Type cannot
be modified. To change Battery Type, terminate the charging
process and then reselect in Standby Mode.
4. When the battery is completely charged, the unit automatically goes
into Float Charge Mode. In this mode, the unit monitors the battery
voltage and charges as necessary to assure the battery maintains
a full charge. The unit remains in Float Charge Mode as long as the
charger is connected to the battery and plugged into a functioning
AC outlet. The LCD Screen shows the following:
The Digital Display shows "FLO" indicating that the unit is in Float
Charge Mode. The Clamp Icons, the Battery Icon (with three bars),
and the Battery Type Indicator will light solid.
NOTE: In Float Charge Mode, the Digital Display shows "FLO" by
default. Press the Battery Voltage Button once to show the voltage
(V) of the connected battery. Press the Battery Voltage Button again
to show the charge status of the battery as a percentage (%) of
full. Pressing the Voltage Button cycles through different charging
status views of the connected battery.
When the unit is in Float Charge Mode, the Battery Type cannot be
modified. To change Battery Type, terminate the charging process
and then reselect in Standby Mode.
5. When disconnecting the battery charger, unplug the AC Power
Cord, remove the clamp from the vehicle chassis, and then remove
the clamp from the battery terminal.
