Charging Current (Amp) — Use this selection to display the current drawn from the charger on the LED digital display when charging. The display

will revert back to battery voltage within 5 seconds.

10.3 CHARGING:

•

Connect the charger to battery per instructions in section 6.

•

Connect the charger to AC outlet.

•

Set the SELECT FUNCTION to CHARGE.

•

Set the SELECT SETTING to the appropriate charge current rate. For 12V batteries, there is a choice between 10 Amp and 2 Amp charging

rate. When the 12V/10 Amp mode is used, the charger will automatically turn off once the battery reaches 14.6VDC.

The charger will not shut off automatically on the 12V/2 Amp or 6V/10 Amp settings. DO NOT LEAVE THE BATTERY

UNATTENDED OR IT COULD EXPLODE CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.

•

When disconnecting the charger, always unplug the unit from the wall ﬁ rst. Disconnect the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) connection, then remove

the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) connection in this sequence.

10.4 AUTOMATIC On-off Circuit:

With charger in automatic shut-off mode (12V/10 Amp), charger DC output will shut off when the correct voltage is reached (14.6V). Monitor

charging daily to ensure that the battery does not overcharge and battery electrolyte is correct. When the charger DC output does shut off, the

green "Charge Complete LED" will come on. Power is still supplied to the charger transformer, so a slight hum or buzzing sound is normal as the

charger continues to monitor the battery charge level. If the "Charge Complete LED" does not come on at least once in a full day of charging,

set the SELECT FUNCTION switch to START. If the "Charge Complete LED" does not come on within 30 minutes, discontinue charging and have

the battery tested.

10.5 BOOST STARTING:

•

Turn off all lights and accessories in the stalled vehicle.

•

Connect the charger to battery per instructions in sections 6 or 7.

•

Connect the charger to AC outlet.

•

Set the SELECT FUNCTION switch to START.

•

Set the SELECT SETTING to the 55A START.

•

Charge the battery for at least ﬁ ve minutes before attempting to start the vehicle.

•

Start the vehicle with the charger connected to the battery.

Do not crank the engine more than 5 seconds in any four minute period; excessive cranking may overheat and damage the

starter. If the vehicle fails to start, while waiting for the starter to cool, allow the charger to continue to charge the battery. Unplug the charger before

disconnecting DC clips from battery.

10.6 AUTOMATIC RESET CIRCUIT BREAKER:

The battery charger has been equipped with an automatic reset circuit breaker. This protects the charger from temporary overload conditions.

A severely discharged battery, a battery with shorted cells, or reversed charger connections at the battery will cause this protective device to

operate. Under these overload conditions, the circuit breaker will open, and when cooled down will reset automatically. This cycling process can

be identiﬁ ed by a clicking sound made during the opening and closing of the circuit breaker.

Follow all safety instructions and precautions for charging the battery. Wear complete eye protection and clothing

protection. Charge the battery in a well-ventilated area.

Using the ENGINE START feature WITHOUT a battery installed in the vehicle could cause damage to the vehicle's electrical system.

NOTE: During extremely cold weather, or if the battery is under 2 volts, charge the battery for 5 minutes before cranking the engine. If the engine fails

to start, charge the battery for 5 more minutes before attempting to crank the engine again. After the engine starts, move the amp rate selector switch

to the "off" position and unplug the AC power cord before disconnecting the battery clips from the vehicle.

NOTE: If the engine does turn over but never starts, there is not a problem with the starting system; there is a problem somewhere else with the

vehicle. STOP cranking the engine until the other problem has been diagnosed and corrected.

10.7 USB:

•

The USB outlet will provide up to 2.1A at 5VDC to portable devices.

•

Supplied with the charger is a LED work light. To use the LED work light, plug into the USB outlet.

11.

CALCULATING CHARGE TIME

•

Use the following table to more accurately determine the time it will take to bring a battery to full charge. First, identify where the battery ﬁ ts into

the chart.

•

Find the battery's rating on the chart below and note the charge time given for each charger setting. The times given are for batteries with a 50%

charge prior to recharging. Add more time for severely discharged batteries.

4.1

Locate the charger as far away from the battery as the DC cables permit.

4.2

Never place the charger directly above the battery being charged: gases from the battery will corrode and damage the charger.

4.3

Do not set the battery on top of the charger.

4.4

Never allow battery acid to drip onto the charger when reading the electrolyte speciﬁ c gravity or ﬁ lling the battery.

4.5

Do not operate the charger in a closed-in area or restrict the ventilation in any way.

DC CONNECTION PRECAUTIONS

5.1

Connect and disconnect the DC output clips only after removing the AC plug from the electrical outlet. Never allow the clips to touch each other.

5.2

Attach the alligator clips to the battery. It is recommended to twist or rock the alligator clips back and forth several times to make a good

connection. This tends to keep the alligator clips from slipping off the battery terminals and helps reduce the risk of sparking.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE

6.1

Position the AC and DC cables to reduce the risk of damage by the hood, door, moving or hot engine parts.

NOTE: If it is necessary to close the hood during the charging process, ensure that the hood does not touch the metal part of the battery clips or

cut the insulation of the cables.

6.2

Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys and other parts that can cause injury.

6.3

Check the polarity of the battery posts. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -)

post.

6.4

Connect the POSITIVE (RED) clip from the battery charger to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) ungrounded post of the battery. Connect the NEGATIVE

(BLACK) clip to the vehicle chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect the clip to the carburetor, fuel lines or sheet-metal

body parts. Connect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.

6.5

When disconnecting the charger, disconnect the AC cord from the wall. Next remove the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) from the chassis ground ﬁ rst,

then remove the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) clip from the battery terminal.

6.6

See CALCULATING CHARGE TIME for length of charge information in section 11.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE.

7.1

Check the polarity of the battery posts. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter then the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -)

post.

7.2

Attach at least a 24-inch (61 cm) long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post.

7.3

Connect the POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of the battery.

7.4

Position yourself and the free end of the cable previously attached to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post as far away from the battery as

possible – then connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to the free end of the cable.

7.5

Do not face the battery when making the ﬁ nal connection.

7.6

When disconnecting the charger, always unplug the unit from the wall ﬁ rst. Disconnect the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) connection, then remove the

POSITIVE (POS, P, +) connection in this sequence.

7.7

A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore.
