batteries with filler caps on each cell, disconnect the battery from the charger, check the level of the electrolyte and if necessary, top
up the cells (with distilled water, NOT acid), then reconnect. When handling batteries or in their vicinity, always take care to observe
the SAFETY WARNINGS above.
Charging time:
The time required for the OptiMate 1 DUO to complete a charge on a flat but otherwise undamaged battery is
roughly equal to 1.5x the battery's Ah rating, so a 14Ah battery should take no more than about 21 hours to progress to Step 3.
Deep-discharged batteries may take significantly longer.
