Charging multiple batteries simultaneously
You can charge multiple batteries simultaneously by connecting them in parallel. Connect the positive terminals to the
red clamp and the negative terminals to the black clamp. These batteries or group of batteries must all be the same
voltage, either 12 or 24V.
Charging in series is not recommended.
USE IN START MODE
Precautions before use
• Do not disconnect the battery from the vehicle. Disconnecting the battery may result in loss of information and a
possible inability to restart.
• The "START ENGINE" mode can detect sulphated batteries and in this event it will not start. The device will start an
automatic desulphation process prior to starting the battery to protect the vehicle electronics.

causes.
