CONNECTING THE ANALYZER TO THE BATTERY
Note: Tests should only be undertaken with the vehicle engine and any electrical loads in
the ‘Off’ position.

TEST
1. Connect the red clamp to the positive (+) terminal and the black clamp to the negative (-)
terminal. The Battery Analyzer switches on when both connections are made.
2. Ensure a good connection by moving the clamps around on the terminals. The Battery
Analyzer requires that both sides of each clamp be properly connected before testing
can take place. A poor connection will result in the ‘CHECK CONNECTION’ warning.
If this happens, clean the battery terminals and clamps and reconnect.
3. Following the start up screens, enter the rating of the battery you are testing* (EN or
CCA according to Battery Analyzer model) using the ‘▲’ and ‘▼’ buttons. The default
setting is 500 EN (or 500 CCA according to model).
4. Press the TEST button and begin the battery test.
5. The result of the test is displayed on the screen.
6. If retest is required, disconnect the Battery Analyzer, reconnect it to the battery terminals, and repeat the process.
