If you are using the 12V Plug Connector, make sure the 12VDC socket

in your vehicle is "active", when "off". If the 12VDC socket is not "active"

the Battery Life solar battery charger will not be able to provide a charge

to the battery.

HOW TO START CHARGING

1.) First, connect the POSITIVE (Red) Connector to the POSITIVE

(POS,P,+) battery terminal. Next, connect the NEGATIVE (Black)

Connector to the NEGATIVE (NEG,N,-) battery terminal or vehicle

chassis. DO NOT CONNECT TO THE CARBURETOR, FUEL LINES,

OR THIN, SHEET METAL PARTS. MAKE THE CONNECTION TO THE

ENGINE BLOCK OR A HEAVY GAUGE METAL PART OF THE FRAME.

If you are using the 12V Plug Connector, insert the 12V Plug Connector

into to your 12VDC socket.

2.) Confirm that you have connected the Battery Clamp Connectors

(included) or Eyelet Terminal Connectors (sold separately) properly

to the battery. MAKING SURE THE CONNECTIONS ARE POSITIVE

TO POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE TO NEGATIVE. If using the 12V Plug

Connector, check to make sure that it is firmly inserted into the 12VDC

socket.

3.) For optimal performance place, mount or secure the solar battery

charger so that it is facing the direction of the sun.

4.) Connect the Battery Clamp Connectors, 12V Plug Connector, or

Eyelet Terminal Connectors to the solar battery charger.

5.) The solar battery charger is now operating and can be left connected

to the battery at all times to provide maintenance charging. However, it

is good practice to check the battery periodically. If the battery is ever

unusually warm, disconnect the charger immediately, and have the

battery tested by a local technician.

6.) When disconnecting the charger, disconnect in the reverse

sequence.

CHARGER MAINTENANCE

Battery Life Solar Battery Chargers do not require any maintenance. Do

not attempt to open or repair the battery charger as it will invalidate the

limited warranty. A damp cloth may be used to clean dust, dirt, or other

debris off of the battery charger. Anything that would inhibit sunlight from

reaching the solar cells should be removed.

MOUNTING BATTERY CHARGER

The Battery Life Solar Battery Chargers have four (4) external mounting

holes in the casing of the battery charger enclosure. These external

mounting holes can be used to mount the battery charger permanently

in a desired location for battery charging. When mounting the battery

charger to a fixed location, keep in mind the distance to the battery

from the battery charger. The cable length from the battery charger to

the battery connectors is approximately 108". Allow for at least 12" of

slack in the battery connections. Thus, we recommend not to extend

the battery connections past 96". Be certain that the battery charger is

securely mounted to avoid accidental contact that may result in physical

damage to the battery charger. Do not over tighten the mounting screws,

as doing so may result in damage to the charger.

HELPFUL TIP

HOW TO CHECK IF YOUR CHARGER IS WORKING.

If the charger is operating in daylight conditions, it is

producing power. However, you can check the Open Circuit

Voltage (OCV) by using a voltmeter. The voltmeter should

read between 15-22V in full sun. If an overcast or cloudy day,

the OCV could be below this range.

HELPFUL TIP

HOW TO IDENTIFY IF YOUR 12VDC SOCKET IS ACTIVE.

Plug the 12V Plug Connector into the 12VDC socket in your

vehicle. If your socket is "active", the LED indicator on the

plug will illuminate. If your plug is "non-active", there will be

no LED indicator illuminated.

If your 12V Plug Connector does not operate while your

vehicle is "off", you can charge and maintain your vehicle

through the OBDII Connector. You can purchase this
