CHARGING A BATTERY
N THE VEHICLE
1. Turn off all the vehicle's accessories.
2. Keep the hood open.
3. Clean the battery terminals.
4. Place the charger on a dry, non-
flammable surface.
5. Lay the AC/DC cables away from any
fan blades, belts, pulleys and other
moving parts.
6. Connect the battery, following the
precautions listed in sections 6 and 7.
7. Connect the charger to a live
grounded 120V AC outlet.
8. Charging will begin within ten minutes
and finish automatically. (Press
the START/STOP button to begin
charging immediately.)
9. When charging is complete,
disconnect the charger from the AC
power, remove the clamps from the
vehicle's chassis, and then remove
the clamp from the battery terminal.
CHARGING A BATTERY OUTSIDE OF
THE VEHICLE

6. When charging is complete,
disconnect the charger from the AC
power, disconnect the negative clamp,
and finally the positive clamp.
7. A marine (boat) battery must be
removed and charged on shore.
NOTE: This charger is equipped with
an auto-start feature. Current will not be
supplied to the battery clamps until a
battery is properly connected. The clamps
will not spark if touched together.
AUTOMATIC CHARGING

BAD BATTERY
Do not continue attempting to charge this
battery. Have it checked or replaced.
DESULFATION MODE
While desulfation is in progress, the
CHARGING
LEDs will be lit. Desulfation could take 8 to
10 hours. If desulfation fails, charging will
abort and the BAD BATTERY
LED will remain lit.
COMPLETION OF CHARGE
Charge completion is indicated by the
CHARGED/MAINTAINING
LED. When lit, the charger has switched
to the maintain mode of operation.
BATTERY CHARGING TIMES
APPLICATION
POWERSPORTS
AUTOMOTIVE
MARINE
Times are based on a 50% discharged
battery and may change, depending on age
and condition of battery.
MAINTAIN MODE
(FLOAT MODE MONITORING)
When the CHARGED/MAINTAINING
(green) LED is lit, the charger has
started maintain mode. In this mode, the
charger keeps the battery fully charged
by delivering a small current when
necessary. If the charger has to provide
its maximum maintain current for a
continuous 12 hour period, it will go into
abort mode (see Aborted Charge section).
This is usually caused by a drain on the
battery or the battery could be bad. Make
sure there are no loads on the battery. If
there are, remove them. If there are none,
have the battery checked or replaced.
