BATTERY TYPE BUTTON
Use this button to select the type of battery.
STANDARD – Used in cars, trucks and motorcycles, these batteries have vent caps and are often marked
“low maintenance” or “maintenance-free”. This type of battery is designed to deliver quick bursts of energy
(such as starting engines) and has a greater plate count. The plates are thinner and have somewhat
different material composition. Standard batteries should not be used for deep-cycle applications.
AGM – The Absorbed Glass Mat construction allows the electrolyte to be suspended in close proximity
with the plate’s active material. In theory, this enhances both the discharge and recharge efciency. The
AGM batteries are a variant of Sealed VRLA (valve regulated lead-acid) batteries. Popular uses include
high-performance engine starting, power sports, deep-cycle, solar and storage batteries.
RECOVERY – This rate uses a unique recovery algorithm to recover a sulfated battery. The display will
show “REC” for the entire recovery/charge/maintain cycle until this option is deselected by the user. The
battery %, amperage and voltage will not be shown.

AUTOMATIC CHARGING MODE
When the 6A Charge rate is selected, the charger switches to the maintain mode automatically after the
battery is charged.
RECOVERY MODE
If a battery is left discharged for an extended period of time, it could become sulfated and not accept a
normal charge. The charger will detect this and automatically enter Recovery mode. When this mode is
activated, the display will read “REC”. The display will revert to normal operation when normal charging
begins after the battery is recovered. Recovery Mode could take up to 10 hours. If it fails, charging will abort
and the display will read “F02”. For more information, see section 13, Troubleshooting and Error Codes.
NOTE: This mode can also be chosen by the user, if the battery has been discharged for a long period of time.
See Section 10, Control Panel, Battery Type Button.
ABORTED CHARGE
If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging aborts, the charger’s output is
shut off and the Clamps Reversed/Bad Battery LED will light solid. The digital display will show FNN where
nn is an error code (see Troubleshooting for a description of the error codes). Do not continue attempting to
charge this battery. Have it checked or replaced.
COMPLETION OF CHARGE
Charge completion is indicated by the Charged/Maintaining (green) LED. When lit, the charger has
switched to the maintain mode of operation.
MAINTAIN MODE (FLOAT MODE MONITORING)
When the Charged/Maintaining (green) LED is lit, the charger has started maintain mode. In this mode, the
charger keeps the battery fully charged by delivering a small current when necessary. If the charger has to
provide an excessive maintain current for a continuous 12 hour period, it will go into abort mode (see Aborted
Charge section). This is usually caused by a drain on the battery or the battery could be bad.
MAINTAINING A BATTERY
The unit charges and maintains 6V and 12V batteries.
NOTE: The maintain mode technology allows you to safely charge and maintain a healthy battery
for extended periods of time. However, problems with the battery, electrical problems in the vehicle,
improper connections or other unanticipated conditions could cause excessive current draws. As such,
occasionally monitoring your battery and the charging process is required.
USING THE ENGINE START FEATURE
Your battery charger can be used to jump start your car if the battery is low. Follow all safety instructions
and precautions for charging your battery. Wear complete eye protection and protective clothing.
WARNING: Using the Engine Start feature WITHOUT a battery installed in the vehicle could cause
damage to the vehicle’s electrical system.
NOTE: If you have charged the battery and it still will not start your car, do not use the Engine Start
feature, or it could damage the vehicle’s electrical system. Have the battery checked.
1. With the charger unplugged from the AC outlet, connect the charger to the battery following the
instructions given in Follow These Steps When Battery is Installed in Vehicle.
2. Connect the charger to a live grounded 120V AC outlet.
3. With the charger plugged in and connected to the battery and chassis, press the Rate Selection button
until the Engine Start LED is lit, and then press the START button.
4. Crank the engine until it starts or 7 seconds pass. If the engine does not start, repeat. Do not crank
during the cool down period (see below). This allows the charger and battery to cool down. NOTE:
During extremely cold weather, or if the battery is under 2 volts, charge the battery for 5 minutes
before cranking the engine.
5. If the engine fails to start, charge the battery for 5 more minutes before attempting to crank the engine again.
6. After the engine starts, unplug the AC power cord before disconnecting the battery clamps from the vehicle.
7. Clean and store the charger in a dry location.
NOTE: If the engine does turn over but never starts, there is not a problem with the starting system;
there is a problem somewhere else with the vehicle. STOP cranking the engine until the other problem has
been diagnosed and corrected.
• 11 •
ENGINE STARTING NOTES
During the starting sequence listed above, the charger is set to one of four states:
• Wait for ready – The charger charges the battery for 2 minutes before the Wait for Cranking state. While
waiting for ready, the digital display shows On and the engine can be cranked. For severely discharged
batteries, it is not recommended to crank during this time.
• Wait for cranking – The charger waits until the engine is actually being cranked before delivering the amps
for engine start. While waiting for cranking, the digital display shows rdy.
• Cranking – When cranking is detected, the charger will automatically deliver up to its maximum output as
required by the starting system for up to 7 seconds.
• Cool Down – After repeated cranking during a 3-minute ready period, the charger enters a mandatory
3 minute (180 second) cool down state. Cranking will not be detected during this time, and therefore
no high output amps for engine start. The digital display indicates the remaining cool down time in
seconds. It starts at 180 and counts down to 0. After 3 minutes, the digital display will change from
displaying the countdown to displaying rdy, and the charger will be back in the Wait for Cranking state
described above. After 2 hours of Engine Starting, the unit will automatically exit from the charging
mode, just as if the STOP button had been pressed; the Charging LED will not be lit.
FAN OPERATION
The fan will operate as needed and it is normal for the fan to sometimes operate continuously. Keep the
area near the charger clear of obstructions to allow the fan to operate efciently.
USING THE BATTERY VOLTAGE TESTER

5. Start the vehicle, rev the engine at 2000 rpm for 30 seconds and turn on the vehicle’s headlights or
other accessories.
6. Read the voltage on the digital display. The alternator percent range is from 0% to 100%. Readings
below 0% (13.2 volts) will read
LO
and readings above 100% (14.6 volts) will read
HI
. If you get a
HI
or
LO
reading, have the electrical system checked by a qualied technician.
12. MAINTENANCE AND CARE
A minimal amount of care can keep your battery charger working properly for years.
• Clean the clamps each time you are nished charging. Wipe off any battery uid that may have come
in contact with the clamps to prevent corrosion.
• Occasionally cleaning the case of the charger with a soft cloth will keep the nish shiny and help
prevent corrosion.
• Coil the input and output cords neatly when storing the charger. This will help prevent accidental damage
to the cords and charger.
• Store the charger unplugged from the AC power outlet in an upright position.
• Store inside, in a cool, dry place. Do not store the clamps on the handle, clipped together, on or around
metal, or clipped to the cables.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Charger will not turn
on when properly
connected.
AC outlet is dead.
Poor electrical connection.
Battery is defective.
Check for open fuse or circuit breaker
supplying AC outlet.
Check power cord and extension cord for
loose tting plug.
Have the battery checked.
Engine start does
not work.
Drawing more than the Engine Start rate.
Failure to wait 3 minutes (180 seconds)
between cranks.
The charger may be overheated.
Battery may be severely discharged.
Crank time varies with the amount of
current drawn. If cranking draws more than
the Engine Start rate, crank time may be
less than 5 seconds.
When the cool-down countdown from 180
to 1 is displayed, wait until the display
shows “rdy” for the next crank.
The thermal protector may have tripped
and needs a little longer to reset. Make
sure the charger vents are not blocked.
Wait and try again.
On a severely discharged battery, use the
Boost rate for 10 to 15 minutes, to help
assist in cranking.

BOTÓN DE TIPO DE BATERÍA
Utilice este botón para seleccionar el tipo de batería.
Estándar – Este tipo de batería generalmente se utiliza en automóviles, camiones y motocicletas. Este tipo
de baterías cuentan con tapas de ventilación y a menudo se las clasica como de “bajo mantenimiento” o
“libre de mantenimiento”. Este tipo de baterías está diseñado para suministrar rápidas ráfagas de energía
(tales como los arranques de motores) y poseen un mayor recuento en placa. Las placas asimismo serán
más delgadas y poseerán una composición de materiales algo diferente. Las baterías regulares no se
deben utilizar en aplicaciones de ciclo profundo.
AGM – La construcción de la malla de bra de vidrio absorbente permite la suspensión del electrolito en
extrema proximidad con el material activo de la placa. En teoría, esto aumenta tanto la eciencia de la
descarga como de la recarga. Las baterías AGM constituyen una variedad de las baterías Selladas VRLA (de
plomo-ácido reguladas por válvula). Entre sus usos más comunes se encuentran baterías con arranque de
motor de alto rendimiento, para deportes intensos, de ciclo profundo, solares y de acumuladores.
MODO DE RECUPERACIÓN – Este nivel utiliza un algoritmo de recuperación único para recuperar una
batería sulfatada. La pantalla mostrará “REC” para todo el ciclo de recuperación/carga/mantenimiento hasta
que el usuario anule la selección de esta opción. No se mostrará el porcentaje de batería, amperaje y voltaje.
