(1) GOOD BATTERY
2.5 Battery Test Result
Battery test result includes 5 types as following.
• The battery is without any problem.
(5) BAD CELL
• There has been bad cell problem inside the battery and needs to be
replaced.
Note: The inside of the 12V lead-acid battery is composed of 6 cells of 2V
units in series, and the bad cell is that at least one cell has been
short-circuited and damaged.
(2) GOOD - RECHARGE
• Good battery but low power, recharge
before using.
(4) CHARGE - RETEST
• Low power leads to inaccurate results,
please test again after charging.
(3) REPLACE
• The battery is near to or already
reached the end of the using life,
replace battery.
Note: Due to vehicle conditions,
temperature, etc., the battery may still
be able to start the engine, but it may
not work at any time, and it is
recommended to replace it.
4. CHARGING TEST
• Press the " " or " " key to select
the Charging Test.
• The charging test is used to test the
vehicle's alternator and charging
system.
• SoH means state of health.
• SoC means state of charge.
