Times are based on a 50% discharged battery and may change, depending on age and condition of battery.
AUTOMATIC CHARGING MODE
When an Automatic Charge is performed, the charger switches to the maintain mode automatically after
the battery is charged.
ABORTED CHARGE
If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging aborts, the charger’s
output is shut off. The Bad Battery (red) LED will light and the yellow/orange Charging LED will ash.
Do not continue attempting to charge this battery. Check the battery and replace, if necessary.
DESULFATION MODE
Desulfation could take 8 to 10 hours. If desulfation fails, charging will abort. The Bad Battery (red) LED
will light and the yellow/orange Charging LED will ash.
COMPLETION OF CHARGE
Charge completion is indicated by the green Charged LED. When pulsing, the charger has switched to
the maintain mode of operation.
MAINTAIN MODE (FLOAT-MODE MONITORING)
When the green Charged LED is pulsing, 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 its
maximum 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. Make sure there are no
loads on the battery. If there are, remove them. If there are none, have the battery checked or replaced.
MAINTAINING A BATTERY
This unit maintains both 6 and 12 volt batteries, keeping them at full charge.
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 recommended.
13. 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.
