PREPARING TO CHARGE
a. If it is necessary to remove the battery from a vehicle for charging, always remove grounded terminals
from battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off in order to prevent an arc.
b. Ensure area around battery is ventilated during charging. Explosive gas/micro particles can be blown
away by using a piece of cardboard or non-metallic fans.
c. Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.
d. If battery is not sealed, add distilled water in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by
battery manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gas from cells. Do not overfill. For a sealed battery
or a battery without cell caps, carefully follow manufacturers recharging instructions.
e. Study all battery manufacturers' specifications such as removal of cell caps during charging and
recommended rates of charge.
f. Determine voltage of battery by referring to vehicle owner's manual and make sure it matches output
rating of the battery charger.
LOCATE CHARGER
a. Place the charger as far away from battery as the DC cables permit.
b. Never place the charger directly above or below the battery being charged. Gases or fluids from the
battery will corrode and damage the charger.
c. Never allow battery acid to drip on the charger when reading gravity or filling battery.
d. Do not operate charger in a closed-in area with poor ventilation.
e. Do not set a battery on top of charger.
CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS
Connect and disconnect DC output clips only after removing AC cord from the electric outlet. Never allow
clips to touch each other.
1) Follow these steps when battery is installed in vehicle as a spark near battery may cause a battery
explosion.
a. Properly place AC and DC cords to reduce risk of damage by hood, door or any moving engine
parts.
b. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
c. Check polarity of battery posts. A positive (+) battery post may have a larger diameter than a
negative (-) post.
d. Determine which battery post is grounded to the chassis. If negative post is grounded to the chassis
(as in most vehicles), see item (e) if positive post is grounded to the chassis, see item (f).
e. For a negative-grounded vehicle, connect the positive (red) clip from the battery charger to the
positive (+) post of battery first. Connect the negative (black) clip from the battery charger to the
vehicle chassis of the engine block remote from the battery and fuel line. Do not connect the clip to
carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body, instead connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame
or engine block.
f. For a positive-grounded vehicle, connect the negative (black) clip from the battery charger to
negative battery post first, then connect the positive (red) clip from the battery charger to the vehicle
chassis or engine block remote from the battery and fuel line.
g. If using permanently mounted eyelet lead SAE connector, simply connect to charger output lead.
h. Connect charger AC supply cord to an electric outlet.
I. When disconnecting the charger, disconnect AC cord, remove clip from vehicle chassis, and then
remove clip from battery terminal.
j. See operating instructions for length of charge information.
2) Follow these steps when battery is outside the vehicle. A spark near the battery may cause an
explosion, reduce risk of a spark near battery.
a. Check polarity of battery posts. A positive (+) battery post may have a larger diameter than a
negative (-) post.
b. Attach at least 1.8m long 1.5mm² insulated battery output cable charger to the negative (-) battery
post.
c. Connect the positive (red) clip from the battery charger to the positive (+) battery post.
d. Position yourself and the free end of cable as far away from battery as possible, then connect
negative (black) clip from the battery charger to free end of cable.
e. Do not face battery when making final connection.
f. Connect charger AC supply cord to an electric outlet.
3) When disconnecting the charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting procedure and
break first connection while standing as far away from battery as practical. A marine (boat) battery
must be removed and charged on shore, to charge it on the boat requires equipment specially
designed for marine use.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
AUTOMATIC MONITORING - Your new battery charger is completely automatic and can be left on
whenever input power is made available to the charger. The charger output depends on the condition of
the battery it is charging. When the battery is fully charged, the "Good" will indicate and battery indicator
will show "100%", then the charger will switch itself to a storage charge mode and will automatically
monitor and maintain the battery at full charge.
CABLE CONNECTIONS - Your new battery charger is equipped with two output leads, a red positive
lead, and a black negative clip lead and a permanent mount eyelet lead with a 2 pin SAE connector.
Always connect or disconnect the output leads before plugging into AC power.
For all battery types: Connect the red positive (+) lead to the positive terminal of the battery. Connect the
black negative (-) lead to the negative terminal of the battery.
NOTE: If the charger is left connected to a lead acid battery for long periods of time, check water levels
periodically as directed by the battery manufacturer to ensure electrolyte is maintained at proper level
ATTENTION: THE BATTERY CHARGER HAS A SPARK FREE AND REVERSE POLARITY
PROTECTION. AS A GOOD PRACTICE, NEVER ALLOW THE TWO CLIPS TOUCH EACH OTHER
The battery charger will not produce voltage (turn on) until it recognizes at least two volts from the
battery. The battery charger clips must be clipped to a battery in the correct polarity to initiate output
voltage and begin charging when in Lead Acid (Pb) charge mode.
When in Lead Acid (Pb) charge mode if the charger is hooked up in reverse polarity, the red "Reverse
Polarity" light will flash, indicating that the connection has been made in reverse of the polarity of the
battery and a charge has not been initiated. The clips must be re-connected in the proper polarity to start
the charger, Red to positive (+ to +) and Black to Negative (-to-)
NOTE: DO NOT TURN YOUR BATTERY CHARGER ON AND OFF REPEATEDLY (Plug and Unplug)
WITHIN A SHORT PERIOD. IF THIS HAPPENS, UNPLUG BATTERY CHARGER FROM AC POWER,
WAIT FOR ONE MINUTE AND THEN CONNECT THE CHARGER AGAIN TO RESTART CHARGING
CYCLE
ESTIMATED TIME TO CHARGE
(BATTERY CAPACITY) + (CHARGER CURRENT) = HOURS or
(AMP HOURS) + (AMPS) = EST. HOURS TO CHARGE
Suppose you have a 100AH (Amp-Hour) battery. Now Let's say you have a 10 Amps charger that will
deliver 10 Amps for as long as it takes to get the battery voltage up to its recharged level. So how long
will it take to actually charge the battery? You can make a calculated guess by just dividing two numbers.
Example: (100AMP HOURS) DIVIDED BY (10AMPS) = 10 HOURS
Some large capacity batteries may take up to 24 hours or even days to fully charged.
Note: it is recommended that only one battery be charged at a time.
FULLY DISCHARGED BATTERIES - LEAD ACID (Pb) CHARGING MODE: If your battery is totally
discharged (below 2.0 volts) the BATTERY CHARGER circuitry will not start due to its internal safety
circuit. The internal safety circuit of the battery charger must sense more than 2.0 volts in the battery
before it will allow the charging circuit to turn on. Otherwise, the charger is inoperable. In this case, the
bad battery indicator light will flash, which means charging has not been initiated to initiate charge on a
battery that is below 2.0 volts, you must fool the battery charger circuitry by momentarily jumping the
discharged battery to a known charged battery (above 2.0 volts) this will trick the charger into initializing
the charging sequence.
Note: Unless the battery was rapidly discharged (lights left on overnight) most 12 volt lead acid
batteries that are at a state of charge that is less than 9 volts are likely to be worn out or
defective.
HOUR SAFETY FEATURE: A 72 hour Safety Timer will commence anytime the charger is on. This
feature is designed to protect marginal batteries from over charging. If the battery voltage reaches the
proper level within 72 hours, the charger will automatically switch to float mode. If your battery is
marginal or defective, the Battery Charger will stop all the happens, the bad battery indicator will be
indicated. If this is the case, please contact your local battery deal and have the battery tested.
