•
STANDARD: Use on typical lead-acid batteries (starting and deep
cycle). This type of battery is usually used in boats, cars, trucks, and
motorcycles. These batteries have vent caps and are often marked "low
maintenance" or "maintenance-free".
•
AGM: Use on batteries marked AGM (starting or deep cycle). AGM
batteries have sealed cases without vent caps.
•
GEL CELL: Use on batteries marked GEL CELL (starting or deep
cycle). Safe to use on "ALL" batteries.
With the exception of AGM and GEL CELL batteries, all other battery
types may or may not have vent caps. Vent caps are located on top of the
battery and provide a means to add distilled water when needed. Batteries
should be marked with their type. If charging a battery that is not marked,
check the manual of the item that uses the battery. If the battery type is
unknown, use the GEL CELL setting.
2.3 OVERVIEW
Using the battery charger is very simple. First, connect the battery
and AC power following the precautions listed under "OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS". Then select the appropriate BATTERY TYPE and
BATTERY SIzE for your battery. The Charger will then do everything
automatically. This section explains a few details.
2.4 CHARGING
If the charger does not detect a properly connected battery, the
✓BATTERY will light continuously until a battery is detected. Charging
will not begin while the ✓BATTERY light is on. When charging begins, the
"CHARGING" LED will be lit.
2.5 AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF
When the 2A, 6A, or 0A battery type is selected, the charger is set to
perform an automatic charge, stops charging after the battery is fully
charged.
2.6 ABORTED CHARGE
If charging can't be completed normally, charging will be aborted.
When charging is aborted, the charger's output is shut off and the red
✓ BATTERY LED blinks on and off. In that state, the charger ignores
all buttons. To reset the charger from after an aborted charge, either
disconnect the battery or unplug the charger.
2.7 DESULFATION MODE
If a battery is left discharged for an extended period, 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. Activation of the special desulfation mode is indicated by
blinking the CHARGING LED. If successful, normal charging will resume
after the battery is desulfated. The CHARGING LED will then stop blinking
and light continuously. Desulfation could take up to 0 hours. If desulfation
fails, charging will be aborted and the ✓BATTERY will blink.
