Charging Modes.
The GENIUS1 has six (6) modes: Standby, 12V, 12V AGM, 12V LITHIUM, 6V and Force. Some charge modes must be pressed and held for three (3) to five (5) seconds
to enter the mode. These "Press and Hold" modes are advanced charging modes that require your full attention before selecting. It is important to understand the
differences and purpose of each charge mode. Always check with battery manufacturer to confirm the right charge mode for your specific battery. Do not operate the
charger until you confirm the appropriate charge mode for your battery. Below is a brief description:
