PRIOR TO USE, READ AND UNDERSTAND PRODUCT SAFETY INFORMATION.

Failure to follow the instructions may result in ELECTRICAL SHOCK,

EXPLOSION or FIRE, which may result in SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH, DAMAGE TO DEVICE or PROPERTY. Do not discard this information.

KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. This unit is not for use by children and should only be operated by adults.

If the charger is hooked up backwards, the LED indicator will not change. The alligator clips or accessory ring terminals must be connected to the battery, with the proper polarity, Red to Positive (+ output to + battery post) and Black to Negative (- output to - battery post), before the charger will generate any output voltage.

AUTOMATIC CHARGING AND BATTERY STATUS MONITORING:

The MOTOPOWER MP00205B battery chargers are completely automatic and may be left connected to both AC power and to the battery that it is charging for long periods of time. The charger output power, voltage, and current depends on the condition of the battery it is charging. It has LED indicator lights that provide a visual means to determine the operating mode of the charger and hence the condition of the battery connected to the charger.

ATTENTION:

The MOTOPOWER CHARGER HAS A SPARK FREE CIRCUITRY.

The output alligator clips or ring terminals will not spark when they are touched together. The charger will not produce an output voltage until it senses at least 4 volts from the battery. It must be connected to a battery with the correct polarity before it will start charging a battery. Therefore, if you plug the AC power cord into an AC power outlet, and if the output alligator clips or ring terminals are not connected to a battery, and if you touch the alligator clips or ring terminals together, there will be no electrical spark.

If you try to charge a dead battery having a voltage below 4 Volts, the MOTOPOWER charger will not start. An internal safety circuit prevents the charger from generating any output voltage unless it senses at least 4 Volts at the charger output. In this situation, the green power on light will flash, indicating that a charge has not been initiated.

For your own safety and safety of others, and to prevent damage to the equipment and vehicles, read this manual carefully before operating your tester.

The safety information presented below are the reminders to the operator to exercise with extreme care when using the device. Always follow BCI (Battery Council International) safety recommendations. Read, understand and follow

all safety cautions and instructions in this manual.

The MOTOPOWER MP0515A Battery Tester is designed to test all types of 12V lead acid batteries, including Regular Flooded, AGM Flat Plate, AGM Spial, Gel and EFB batteries and also 12V starting and charging system. It provides a quick, easy and affordable solution for technicans to check battery health and detects faults of starting and charging system.

Batterv test

The tester powers on automatically when it is correctly connected to the battery. The preferred test position is at the battery terminals. If the battery is not accessible, you may test at the jumper post. However, the measured value may be lower than the actual value.

NOTE:

If you are testing inside a vehicle, make sure all accessory loads are cut off, the key is not in the ON position and the doors are closed.To connect the tester Clean the battery posts or side terminals. Connect the red clamp to the positive(+) terminal and the black clamp to the negative(-) terminal. Rock the clamps back and forth to make sure the clamps are firmly connected. In case the connection is poor, the testing result will be not acurate. When the tester is correctly connected, the tester will power on and display the main menu screen. Choose battery option to enter the battery test.Standard TestSelect the standard test mode, enter the interface, select the battery type, and press the OK button to continue:

AUTOMATIC CHARGING AND BATTERY STATUS MONITORING:

The MOTOPOWER MP00205C battery chargers are completely automatic and may be left connected to both AC power and to the battery that it is charging for long periods of time. The charger output power, voltage, and current depends on the condition of the battery it is charging. It has 2 color indicator lights that provide a visual means to determine the operating mode of the charger and hence the condition of the battery connected to the charger.

If you try to charge a dead battery having a voltage below 4 Volts, the MOTOPOWER charger will not start. An internal safety circuit prevents the charger from generating any output voltage unless it senses at least 4 Volts at the charger output. In this situation, the red light will continue to flash, indicating that a charge has not been initiated.

Motorola has a line of IMPRES chargers and batteries to help extend the life of your battery, giving you longer runtimes and better charges. The charger will show different LED lights telling you what stage of charge your battery is in.

IMPRES batteries by Motorola are designed for simple, reliable care and are equipped with an innovative charging system that when paired with an IMPRES charger, reconditions the battery, extending its life.

IMPRES batteries have an internal memory that is read by IMPRES chargers. When an IMPRES battery is charged for more than 2.5 minutes, the charger will read the battery serial number. You can remove the battery from the charger for up to 30 minutes, then once the battery is reinserted into the charger, it will resume the charge from when it was first removed.

STEADY ORANGE (ONLY IMPLIES TO IMPRESS BATTERIES): Your battery is in reconditioning mode. However long your battery remains in this mode depends on the remaining charge of your battery. Fully charged batteries require more reconditioning time (8 hours or more) than fully discharged batteries.

Your IMPRES charger may flash different colors of green, orange, or red. This may mean your battery is just completing its charge time like normal but other LED flashes may be a warning to the state of your battery.

FLASHING ORANGE: The charger has recognized the battery but is waiting to charge. Battery voltage could be too low or temperature could be too low or too high to allow for charging. When corrected, the battery will start charging.

FLASHING RED/GREEN: The battery is fully charged and continues to be usable but may be nearing end of service life. Start looking for replacement batteries if you do not have one already.

FLASHING AMBER (YELLOW)/GREEN: The battery is in recalibration mode. As soon as possible, enable calibaration and calibrate the battery. You can force calibration by removing and reinserting the battery within a few seconds. Wait until a solid green light is indicated to know calibration is complete.

Motorola now has two generations of IMPRES batteries known as IMRPES 1 and IMPRES 2. IMPRES 2 is known as their next-generation system that charges batteries 40% faster and at a higher capacity giving you more talk time. IMRPES 2 also lets you charge 60% more times than a standard Li-Ion battery.

To manually start the reconditioning process, insert your battery into the charger, and within the first 2.5 minutes, remove and reinsert the battery within 5 seconds. This will manually start the reconditioning process. The charger should change from a STEADY RED to a STEADY ORANGE.

Manually reconditioning batteries would be beneficial when you have batteries that have been in storage for several months. Otherwise, the charger is going to determine when the reconditioning process should start.
