Battery Charger Settings
Upon making a proper battery connection (see Section
F or G as applicable), plug AC power cord into an AC
receptacle. All unit LEDs will light momentarily, then only
the LEDs corresponding to charging settings should stay
lit. The charger is now in Standby Mode.
If the ERROR Indicator LED lights, disconnect from AC
power supply immediately and determine the cause of the
alarm. A blinking ERROR light indicates reverse polarity
error connection, while a solid ERROR light indicates the
detection of a battery fault, such as a shorted connection.
To charge a battery:
1. Choose a battery voltage charge setting
(Model No. 4506 only). The default setting is the 12V
mode, which will apply to most charging applications.
To charge in 6V mode, push the charge setting button
until the “6V” LED is lit.
2. Choose a battery type setting. To charge Standard
and Maintenance Free flooded Acid batteries, push
the battery type button until the “STD” LED is lit. To
charge AGM batteries, push the Battery Type button
until the “AGM” LED is lit. To charge Gel Cell, push
the Battery Type button until the “GEL” LED is lit.
3. Choose a battery charging rate. Small batteries found
in lawn and garden, motorcycle or ATV applications
should be charged in the lowest possible charge rate
setting.
4. Press the “GO” button and the charging indicator LED
will light. The charger will automatically commence
and complete the charging process. If you press
the “GO” button at any point during the charging
sequence, the charger will stop charging and return to
Standby Mode.
Note: If the ERROR LED lights, disconnect from AC
power immediately and determine the cause of the
alarm. See Battery Charger Features for a list of
conditions that might cause this warning.
Note: The charger is designed to protect against faults
and shorts (see Battery Charger Features). If the
battery to be charged has a open circuit voltage of
less than 1V, the charger will indicate a fault. If, after
unplugging unit, checking connections and verifying
all settings, you determine the problem causing the
“fault” condition is battery voltage below 1V, you can
override the charger’s protection by holding down
the “GO” button for 3 seconds. The charger will
commence the charging sequence and, assuming
these are no other hindrances that caused the fault
indication, will complete the charging process and
automatically turn off when the battery has reached
full charge.
5. When the charging process is complete, the
“CHARGE COMPLETE” indicator will light. This
indicates that the initial charging cycle is complete
and the charger is now in Maintenance Mode, and will
resume charging as needed to keep your battery in
optimal condition.
6. When you are finished with the charging process,
disconnect AC power cord from AC outlet, then
disconnect DC leads from vehicle ground (if charging
with battery in vehicle) and battery in the reverse
sequence of the connection procedure.
