WARNING
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including arsenic, which is
known to the State of California to cause cancer.

1. Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate
explosive gases during normal battery operation. For this reason, it is of
utmost importance, if you have any doubt, that each time before using your
tester, you read these instructions very carefully.
2. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those
published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment
English

you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Observe cautionary markings
on these items.
3. Do not expose the tester to rain or snow.
PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to
your aid when you work near a lead acid battery.
2. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin,
clothing, or eyes.
3. Wear safety glasses and protective clothing.
4. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and
water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water for at
least ten minutes and get medical attention immediately.
5. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
6. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It
could spark or short-circuit the battery or other electrical parts and could
cause an explosion.
7. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and
watches when working with a lead acid battery. It can produce a short circuit
current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal causing a severe burn.
PREPARING TO TEST
1. Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being tested.
2. Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from contacting with
eyes.
3. Inspect the battery for cracked or broken case or cover. If battery is damaged,
do not use tester.
English

4. If the battery is not sealed maintenance free, add distilled water in each cell
until battery acid reaches level specified by the manufacturer. This helps
purge excessive gas from cells. Do not overfill.
5. If it is necessary to remove battery from vehicle to test, always remove ground
terminal from battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off to
ensure you do not cause any arcing.
OPERATION AND USE
Each time you connect the tester to a battery, the tester will run a quick cable
verification to ensure a proper connection through the output cables to sensors in
the clamp jaws. If the connection checks out OK, the tester will proceed to the
Home Screen. If the connection is poor, the display will show “CHECK CABLE”.
In this case, check cable connections for visible signs of damage, as you may
need to re-connect the clamps to the battery or replace the cable end.
PAPER REPLACEMENT
1. Open the paper roll cover.
2. Place a new paper roll in the compartment. Make sure the thermal side is
upside placed as below.
3. Pull a short length of paper from the compartment and press down the cover
to close.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USING THE INTEGRATED PRINTER
To prevent overheating the integrated printer, it is not recommended to operate
the printer continuously without short breaks. The printer should be rested for at
least 1 minute for every 2 minutes of continuous use.
There is no need to be worried under normal operation, where one test only
requires one printout and continuous printing is highly unlikely. However, if the
integrated printer does start to get warm, please allow it to cool down by
temporarily halting any printing actions.
HOW TO REPLACE CLAMP SET
1. Detach the clamp set when in need of replacement.
2. Make sure the new clamp set is properly connected.
*Do not detach the cables unless necessary to ensure the pins are not exposed to
the moisture and acidic liquids which could cause rusting and corrosion.
INSTALL / REPLACE THE INTERNAL BATTERIES
The tester offers two different options for its internal batteries.
A. 6pcs AA batteries.
B. 2pcs 18650 rechargeable lithium batteries.
English

Important
It is recommended that the user to apply protected type 18650 lithium batteries
instead of unprotected type 18650 batteries.
Because the circuit of the protected type 18650 battery is embedded in the cell
packaging (battery casing) which protects the cell from “over charge”, heat or
“over discharge”, over current and short circuit and less likely to overheat, burst or
start on fire.
Replace / Install the AA batteries
1. Unscrew the battery cover to access
the battery compartment.
2. Pull the strap up to remove the AA
batteries and install new ones (Always
keep the strap under the batteries.)
3. Close the battery cover and tighten
the screw.
Replace / Install the rechargeable 18650 lithium batteries
1. Unscrew the battery cover to access
the battery compartment.
2. Install / Replace the 18650 lithium
batteries from the battery holder.
3. Plug in the connector of the 18650
lithium battery holder.
4. Place the 18650 lithium battery holder
in position. (Always keep the strap
under the battery holder.)
5. Close the battery cover and tighten the
screw. (Make sure the battery cover
doesn’t clip on the cables of the battery
English

holder when closing.)
6. Tighten the srew of the battery cover.
*18650 lithium batteries are not
included in the package.
