MODEL PS-2100MA:

Two switches permit Battery Type and Charge Rate selection.

Switch #1 permits selection of either regular battery in automatic operation or Deep- cycle battery in automatic operation. If you are not sure of your battery type, use the regular battery setting.

Switch #2 (4 Charge Rate Modes)

Mode 1– Select 15 Amp, 6 Volt Manual Operation to charge medium and large size wet-cell, lead-acid, 6 Volt batteries. Do not charge small batteries such as used in motorcycles, lawn and garden equipment.

Manual Operation. Monitor frequently while charging a battery. Not doing so may cause damage to your battery or result in other property damage or personal injury.

Mode 2 – Select the 2 Amp automatic setting to charge small 12 Volt batteries (31 Ah or less) or to warm larger lead-acid batteries.

Mode 3 – Select 15 Amp automatic for larger 12 Volt batteries for a faster charge. Mode 4 – Select 100 Amp Engine Start to assist in engine cranking of 12 Volt systems.

DO NOT use on 6 Volt systems. Use the 100 Amp Engine Start position for cranking automobiles or light trucks.

NOTE: Use only with battery in the vehicle. This will reduce the chance of damaging sensitive electronic equipment in the vehicle.
