Do NOT smoke or cause sparks or flames while the battery is being recharged
because batteries give off explosive gasses.
Preparing for Test:
1. The Tester operates from 9V ~ 15V DC and should not be tested on 24V directly. It will cause
damage the unit. For 12V x 2 batteries (in series or parallel), disconnect the connections and
test them individually.
2. Battery that has just been charged by the charger contains surface charge and it should be
discharged by turning ON the Head lights for 3~5 minutes before testing.
3. Always attached the tester clips on the lead side of the battery terminal posts during testing
so that it has a good contact. This will provide better and accurate results.
4. Do not attach the tester clips directly onto the steel bolt that tightened to the battery terminal
posts; this may give inaccurate readings or inconsistent results. (Note: This also applies to all
other battery testing methods.)
5. During testing on the battery whist it is still in the car, make sure the engine
and load are OFF. Close the trunk lid and all doors.
6. Inspect the battery for cracks or broken casing. Do not use the Teste

7. If the battery is a WET type: non sealed maintenance free, top up the level

DO NOT OVERFILL.
8. If necessary to remove the battery from the vehicle to test, ALWAYS remove the negative
terminal from the battery first. Make sure all accessories are OFF so that you do not cause
any arcing.
