DESULFATION MODE
Desulfation could take 8 to 10 hours. If desulfation fails, charging will abort and
the CHARGING
(yellow/orange) LED will ash.
COMPLETION OF CHARGE
Charge completion is indicated by the CHARGED
(green) LED. When
pulsing, the charger has switched to the maintain mode of operation.
MAINTAIN MODE (FLOAT-MODE MONITORING)
When the CHARGED
(green) 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
The BE01248 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 clipped together, on
or around metal, or clipped to the cables.
