PERSONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.Consider having someone close by to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention immediately.NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.Take extra precautions to avoid dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It may spark or create a short circuit that can cause an explosion.Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn.Use charger for charging a LEAD-ACID battery only. It is not intended to supply power to a low voltage electrical system other than in a starter-motor application. Do not use battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage to property.NEVER charge a frozen battery.AC ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

PLUGGING CHARGER IN

USING AN EXTENSION CORDAn extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, make sure:The pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those of plug on charger.

The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.

The wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified in the chart below:

A. Charge Status/ Fault Indicator

This battery charger features a single LED to indicate charging status and faults:LED StatusExplanationGreen (flashing)ChargingGreen (solid)Charged/MaintainingAmber (solid)Power ON but no battery detected. Check to ensure that clamp connections to the battery posts are clean and solid. If connections are good, the battery is severely discharged (

B. Fault/Error IndicatorThe charger will continuously monitor charge progress and collect feedback from the battery during charging. In the event an abnormal condition is detected, charging will stop and will illuminate to indicate one of three possible error conditions:

STAGE 4 ABSORPTION

Charging with constant voltage while reducing current to safely bring the battery to 100% capacity.

This stage is key to maximizing battery performance and battery life.

STAGE 5 ANALYZE

Tests if battery is holding charge.STAGE 6 MAINTENANCE

Monitors battery voltage and provides top-up charging when necessary to keep battery fully charged.

* If necessaryMAINTENANCE AND CAREWipe clean cords and clamps after each use.Store the power and output cables neatly to prevent damage.The charger housing may be cleaned using a damp cloth and mild cleaning agent.Always unplug the charger when not in use.Keep the charger stored in a cool, dry place.TROUBLESHOOTINGConditionCauseSolutionNo LEDs illuminate when plugged into AC outletLoose connection at AC outletCheck connection.No AC power at outletEnsure power is present at AC outlet by plugging in a different appliance.Amber (solid) fault LED is illuminatedPoor clamp connection to battery postsCheck clamp connection.
