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.
4. If the engine fails to start, charge the battery for 5 more minutes before attempting to crank the
engine again.
5. After the engine starts, unplug the AC power cord before disconnecting the battery clamps from
the vehicle.
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.
ENGINE STARTING NOTES
During the starting sequence, the charger is set to one of three states:
• Wait for cranking – The charger waits until the engine is actually being cranked before delivering the
amps for engine start.
• Cranking – When cranking is detected, the charger will automatically deliver up to its maximum output as
required by the starting system for up to 5 seconds or until the engine cranking stops.
• Cool Down – After cranking, the charger enters a mandatory 3 minute (180 second) cool down state.
The digital display will show COOL DOWN xxx SECONDS REMAINING. It starts at 180 and counts
down to 0. After 3 minutes, the digital display will change to READY.
