charging tips

Read this entire manual before using your charger. The tips below serve only as a guide for specific situations.

If your vehicle won’t start: You don’t need to fully charge a battery to start your vehicle. If the charger won’t start your vehicle using the engine Start rate, try charging the battery using the REGULAR BATTERY rate for 10 or 15 minutes. That should charge the battery enough to al- low the engine START rate to start the vehicle. If the vehicle will then be operated continuously for an extended period (such as a long drive), the vehicle could charge the battery back to normal during that period. If the vehicle will only be operated for a short period (short drive), the battery might need to be charged again before it could start the vehicle again.

Reviving your battery: If you only wish to charge your battery enough to operate your vehicle, you don’t need to wait for the entire charging process to be completed. When the charger displays a battery % of 77 or more (see page 12), the battery has usually been charged enough for the vehicle to start and operate normally.

Completing an interrupted charge: If the charging process has been interrupted and restarted after the charger displays a battery % of 85 or more, the charger could go straight to Maintain Mode (see page 7). However, if the original charge was started using the REGULAR BATTERY rate, the charge can often be completed using the small battery setting.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

A minimal amount of care can keep your battery charger working properly for years.

1.Clean the clamps each time you are finished charging. Wipe off any battery fluid that may have come in contact with the clamps to prevent corrosion.

2.Coil the input and output cords neatly when storing the charger. This will help pre- vent accidental damage to the cords and charger.

3.Occasional cleaning of the case of the charger with a soft cloth will keep the finish shiny.
