Charging Your Battery

NOTE: A marine (boat) boat battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on board requires equipment specially designed for marine use.

Charging your battery in the vehicle:

1.Arrange the power cord and charging cords care- fully in order to avoid damage that could be caused by the hood, door, or moving engine parts.

2.Keep hands, hair, clothing and jewelry clear of the fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury.

3.Check the polarity of the battery posts using the identification marks on the battery case: POSI- TIVE (POS,P, +) and NEGATIVE (NEG,N, –).

NEGATIVE GROUNDED SYSTEM

4.Identify which post of the battery is grounded or connected to the chassis. THE NEGATIVE POST

IS NORMALLY THE ONE THAT IS GROUNDED.

5.To charge a negative grounded post system: Connect the red (POSITIVE) battery charger clamp to the ungrounded POSITIVE (POS,P,+) post of the battery. Then connect the black (NEGATIVE) clamp to a heavy metal part of the chassis or engine block, away from the battery. Do not connect clamp to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet metal parts.

To charge a positive grounded post system: Connect the black (NEGATIVE) battery charger clamp to the NEGATIVE (NEG,N,–) ungrounded post of the battery. Then connect the red (POSI- TIVE) clamp to a heavy unpainted metal part of the chassis or engine block, away from the battery. Do not connect clamp to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet metal parts.

IMPORTANT: Wear safety glasses and face away from the battery while making connections.

6.Twist or rock clamps back and forth to make a solid connection. This will help make better contact and help keep them from slipping off and causing sparks.

7.Make sure the power is set to the OFF position. Then, plug the power cord into a 3-prong AC wall outlet.

8.Push the switch located on the front panel to

CHARGE/TEST.

9.Press the VOLT/AMP SELECTOR to the desired charge position. (See “CHARGE RATE” chart on page 12 for correct settings.) Charging starts.

10.Press the TIMER to the desired charge time, from 5–135 minutes. If more than 135 minutes of charging time is needed the HOLD position can be used. When using the HOLD feature the battery being charged must be monitored closely to avoid over charging.

11.When the battery is fully charged, push the switch located on the front panel to OFF. Unplug the charger power cord from the wall outlet.

12.Facing away from the battery, remove the charger clamps in this order: (1) from the vehicle chassis or engine block (2) from the battery post or terminal.

13.Clean and store the battery charger in a dry location.
