Battery Connection Indicator
If the charger does not detect a properly connected battery, the CHECK BAT-
(red) LED will light continuously until such |
is detected. |
Charging will not begin while the CHECK BATTERY 
(red) LED is on..
Completion of Charge |
|
Charge completion is indicated by the CHARGED |
(green) LED. When |
lit, the charger has stopped charging and switched to the Maintain Mode of operation.
Maintain Mode (Float-Mode Monitoring)
When the CHARGED (green) LED is lit, 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 battery voltage drops below a preset level, the charger will go back into Charge Mode until the battery voltage returns to the full charge level, at which point the charger will return to Maintain Mode.
The voltage is maintained at a level determined by the 6 volt or 12 volt battery type selected.
NOTE: The charger automatically switches between Charge Mode and
Maintain Mode as necessary. The CHARGED (green) LED will cycle on when the battery is at full charge and off when the voltage drops below a preset level and the charger goes into Charge Mode. This cycle will continue, and the
CHARGED (green) LED will stay on for longer periods of time as the battery becomes more fully charged.
Desulfation Mode
If the battery is left discharged for an extended period of time, it could become sulfated and not accept a normal charge. If the charger detects a sulfated battery, the charger will switch to a special mode of operation designed for such batteries. If successful, normal charging will resume after the battery is desulfated. Desulfation could take up hours. If desulfation fails, charging
will abort and the CHECK BATTERY 
(red) LED will blink.
Aborted Charge
If charging can not be completed normally, charging will abort. When
aborts, the charger’s output is shut off, and the CHECK BATTERY 
(red)
LED will blink. To reset after an aborted charge, either disconnect the battery or unplug the charger.
13.CALCULATING charge times
This charger adjusts the charging time in order to charge the battery completely, efficiently and safely.
This battery charger has a rated output of 2 and 4 amperes. This output will vary with the age and condition of the battery being charged. If the battery has only been slightly discharged, it can be charged in less than a few hours. The same battery will take longer to charge if it is very weak.

17.BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS
17.1When a charging problem arises, make certain that the battery is capable of accepting a normal charge. Use a good battery to double check all connections, the AC outlet for a full 120-volts, the charger clips for correct polarity and the quality of the connections from the cables to the clips and from the clips to the battery system. The clips must be clean.
17.2When a battery is very cold, partially charged or sulfated, it will not draw the full rated amperes from the charger. It is both dangerous and damaging to a battery to force higher amperage into it than it can effectively use in recharging.
17.3When an UNKNOWN OPERATING PROBLEM arises, please read the complete manual and call the customer service number for information that will usually eliminate the need for return.
If the above solutions do not eliminate the problem or for information about troubleshooting or replacement parts, call toll-free from anywhere in the U.S.A.
