【CHARGING STEPS】
【EXPLANATION OF CHARGING STEPS】
1. Desulphation/Desulfurization:
Desulphation/Desulfurization revives the battery via a series of current pulses dissolving sulfur from the internal
battery poles to activate chemical reaction.
2. Diagnosis:
The charging current is set to a relatively low level while the microcontroller is diagnosing physical
conditions of the battery.
3. Bulk Charging:
This is a high current charge to minimise charge time.
4. Absorption:
In this stage, the battery voltage is returned to its normal fully charged level and the charging
current is gradually decaying to nil.
5. Supervision:
The microcontroller supervises the voltage decline of the fully charged battery from its normal level to its floating
level.
6. Float Charging:
The battery voltage is maintained at its floating level by the charger via supplying an intermittently minimal
charging current.
• Latest technology switchmode design circuitry meets safety approvals
• Spark free circuitry prevents sparks on connection and disconnection
• Low ripple current design prevents heat and gas build-up from batteries
• High efficiency (over 80%), fan-less design
• Internal temperature shielded unit keeps case cool
• Three options for charging current
• Robust design protects unit in abnormal situations.
• 6 charging steps aids and facilitates battery chemical reaction extending battery life
• Inbuilt active PFC circuitry PFC >0.95 (optional)
h. Select Snow mode for charging at 14.7 or 29.4V for AGM batteries, or where the ambient temperature is below
0º C.
i. If the charging LED continually blinks, the battery is being charged. When the charging LED is permanently on,
then the battery is fully charged.
j. If the fault indicator LED blinks, or is permanently on, then the battery will not accept a charge.

WARNING － RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES.
a) WORKING IN VICINITY OF A LEAD-ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS.
BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL BATERY OPERATION. FOR THIS
REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EACH TIME YOU
USE THE CHARGER.
b) To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those published by battery manufacturer
and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in vicinity of battery. Review cautionary marking on
these products and on engine.
11. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS
a) Consider having someone close enough by to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery.
b) Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes.
c) Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near battery.
d) 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.
e) NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of battery or engine.
f ) Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit battery
or other electrical part that may cause explosion.
g) 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-circuited current high enough to weld a ring or the
like to metal, causing a severe burn.
h) 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.
i) NEVER charge a frozen battery.
12. PREPARING TO CHARGE
a) If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to charge, always remove grounded terminal from battery first.
Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off, so as not to cause an arc.
b) Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being charged.
c) Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.
d) Add distilled water in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by battery manufacturer. Do not
overfill. For a battery without removable cell caps, such as valve regulated lead acid batteries, carefully
follow manufacturer’s recharging instructions.
e) Study all battery manufacturer’s specific precautions while charging and recommended rates of charge.
f ) Determine voltage of battery by referring to car owner’s manual and make sure it matches output rating of
battery charger.
13. CHARGER LOCATION
a) Locate charger as far away from battery as dc cables permit.
b) Never place charger directly above battery being charger; gases from the battery will corrode and damage
charger.
c) Never allow battery acid to drip on charger when reading electrolyte specific gravity or filling battery.
d) Do not operate charger in a closed-in area or restrict ventilation in any way.
e) Do not set a battery on top of charger.

a) Position ac and dc cords to reduce risk of damage by hood, door, or moving engine part.
b) Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys, and other parts that can cause injury to persons.
c) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has larger diameter than
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
d) Determine which post of battery is grounded (connected) to the chassis. If negative post is grounded to
chassis (as in most vehicles), see (e). If positive post is grounded to the chassis, see (f).
e) For negative-grounded vehicle, connect POSITIVE (RED) clip from battery charger to POSITIVE (POS,
P, +) ungrounded post of battery. Connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away
from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy
guage metal part of the frame or engine block.
f ) For positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from battery charger to NEGATIVE (NEG,
N, -) ungrounded post of battery. Connect POSITIVE (RED) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away
from battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy
gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
g) When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, disconnect AC cord, remove clip from vehicle chassis, and
then remove clip from battery terminal.
16. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY
CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
