USER GUIDE
(Read through the instructions before use):
1. Read the safety notes and take the stated precautions.
2. Connect the charger’s mains plug to a power socket. The lamp
on the front of the charger shine.
3. Connect the charger’s red cable clamp to the battery’s positive
terminal post (+), and the black cable clamp to the battery’s
negative terminal post (-). If the charger is correctly connected,
the yellow LED (green LED during 13.7 V Supply) flashes for
around 3 seconds. If the cables are incorrectly connected, the
red LED lights to indicate a fault. If that is the case, check the
connection and adjust accordingly.
4. Select the correct mode (Ah and AGM/GEL or standard battery,
see below)* by pressing the button repeatedly until the LED
flashes against the desired battery size and type, or at the
“13.7 V Supply”, if this function is desired.
5. Charging/power supply will begin automatically after 3
seconds, when the LED will stop flashing and will change to
a constant yellow. At the same time, the lamp on the front of
the charger will go out; the charging process/power supply is
underway.
6. The LED will light a constant yellow until the charge is complete, when the LED changes from yellow to green. In the
“13.7 V Supply” mode, the green lamp lights while the function
is connected.
7. When the charge is completed, the charger clamps can either
be removed from the terminals, or may remain in place for
continual maintenance of charge. New periods of charging will
then take place automatically at regular intervals.
8. Charging/power supply may be interrupted at any time, by
unplugging the charger’s mains plug from the power socket.
9. Following completion of the charge, unplug the mains, and
disconnect the cable clamps from the battery terminals. Return
the charger to its original storage box for safe-keeping when
not in use.
*The batter y size (Ah) is usually printed on the battery itself.
Batteries are either of type AGM/GEL or standard. AGM/GEL
are valve-regulated batteries, where the electrolyte (the acid) is
absorbed or is in gel form, and are often clearly marked AGM or
GEL. Other batteries are standard batteries.
