will artificially raise the open circuit voltage of the battery, causing the battery to appear fully charged, while providing low capacity. Use 12V Repair in attempt to reverse these problems. For optimal
results, take the 12-volt battery through a full charge cycle, bringing the battery to full charge, before using this mode. 12V Repair can take up to four (4) hours to complete the recovery process
and will return to Standby when completed.
CAUTION. USE THIS MODE WITH CARE. THIS MODE IS FOR 12-VOLT LEAD-ACID BATTERIES ONLY. THIS MODE USES A HIGH CHARGING VOLTAGE AND MAY CAUSE SOME WATER LOSS IN WET
(FLOODED) CELL BATTERIES. BE ADVISED, SOME BATTERIES AND ELECTRONICS MAY BE SENSITIVE TO HIGH CHARGING VOLTAGES. TO MINIMIZE RISKS TO ELECTRONICS, DISCONNECT THE
BATTERY BEFORE USING THIS MODE.
Force Mode. [Press & Hold for 5 seconds]
Force mode allow the charger to manually begin charging when the connected battery's voltage is too low to be detected. If battery voltage is too low for the charger to detect,
press and hold the mode button for 5 seconds to activate Force Mode, then select the appropriate mode. All available modes will flash. Once a charge mode is selected, the
Charge Mode LED and Charge LED will alternate between each other, indicating Force Mode is active. After five (5) minutes the charger will return to the normal charge operation
and low voltage detection will be reactivated.
CAUTION.
USE THIS MODE WITH EXTREME CARE. FORCE MODE DISABLES SAFETY FEATURES AND LIVE POWER IS PRESENT AT THE CONNECTORS. ENSURE ALL
CONNECTIONS ARE MADE PRIOR TO ENTERING FORCE MODE, AND DO NOT TOUCH CONNECTIONS TOGETHER. RISK OF SPARKS, FIRE, EXPLOSION, PROPERTY
DAMAGE, INJURY, AND DEATH.
Connecting to the Battery.
Do not connect the AC power plug until all other connections are made. Identify the correct polarity of the battery terminals on the battery. The positive battery
terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (POS, P, +). The negative battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (NEG, N, -). Do not
make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines, or thin, sheet metal parts.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. WARNING: A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO
REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY:
1.) Position AC and DC cords to reduce risk of damage by hood, door, or moving engine part.
2.) Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
3.) Check polarity of battery terminals. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery terminal usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery terminal.
4.) Determine which battery terminal is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If negative battery terminal is grounded to chassis (as in most vehicles), see Step 5. If
positive battery terminal is grounded to the chassis, see Step 6.
5.) For negative-grounded vehicle only, connect POSITIVE (RED) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector from battery charger to POSITIVE (POS, P. +) ungrounded
battery terminal. Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Connect to a heavy
