Automatic Charging Mode
When an Automatic Charge is performed, the charger switches to the Maintain Mode
(see below) automatically after the battery is charged.
Aborted Charge
If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging aborts, the
charger's output is shut off and the CHARGING (yellow) LED will blink. To reset after an
aborted charge, unplug the charger from the AC outlet, wait a few moments and plug it
back in.
Desulfation Mode
If the battery is left discharged for an extended period of time, it could become sulfated
and not accept a normal charge. If the charger detects a sulfated battery, the charger will
switch to a special mode of operation designed for such batteries. If successful, normal
charging will resume after the battery is desulfated. Desulfation could take 8 to 10 hours.
If desulfation fails, charging will abort and the CHARGING (yellow) LED will blink.
