Read this entire manual before using your charger. The tips below serve only as a guide 

for specific situations.

If  your  vehicle  won’t  start: You  don’t 

need to fully charge a battery to start your 

vehicle.  If  the  charger  won’t  start  your 

vehicle using the ENGINE START rate, try 

charging the battery using the REGULAR 

BATTERY rate for 10 or 15 minutes. That 

should  charge  the battery enough  to al-

low the ENGINE START rate to start the 

vehicle. If the vehicle will then be operated 

continuously for an extended period (such 

as a long drive), the vehicle could charge 

the  battery  back  to  normal  during  that 

period. If the vehicle will only be operated 

for a short period (short drive), the battery 

might need to be charged again before it 

could start the vehicle again.

Reviving your battery: If you only wish 

to charge your battery enough to operate 

your vehicle, you don’t need to wait for the 

entire charging process to be completed. 

When  the  charger  displays  a  battery  % 

of 77 or more (see page 12), the battery 

has usually been charged enough for the 

vehicle to start and operate normally.
Completing  an  interrupted  charge:  If 

the charging process has been interrupted 

and restarted after the charger displays a 

battery % of 85 or more, the charger could 

go straight to Maintain Mode (see page 7). 

However, if the original charge was started 

using the REGULAR BATTERY rate, the 

charge can often be completed using the 

SMALL BATTERY setting.

A minimal amount of care can keep your battery charger working properly for years.
1.  Clean the clamps each time you are finished charging. Wipe off any battery fluid 

that may have come in contact with the clamps to prevent corrosion.

2.  Coil the input and output cords neatly when storing the charger. This will help pre-

vent accidental damage to the cords and charger.

3.  Occasional cleaning of the case of the charger with a soft cloth will keep the finish 

shiny.
