12.2CIRCUIT BREAKER

This battery charger is equipped with a self-resetting circuit breaker. This device protects the charger from temporary overloads. In the event of an overload, the circuit breaker will trip open and after a short cooling off period will reset automatically. This process is known as cycling and can be recognized by an audible clicking sound.

NOTE: Clicking sound is normal. Wait until charger automatically resets itself.

CAUTION: Persistent clicking (more than 30 minutes) may indicate reverse connection or shorted battery cells. (See TROUBLESHOOTING.)
