CHARGING TIME
1.
If the battery is free from issues it should be sufficiently charged to start a
vehicle once the 100% LED indicator is illuminated
2.
For the battery with different capacities,different brands and in different using
stage, the charging time will vary. In general, after charging 12-15 hours, the
battery can be used normally.

Motorcycle and smaller capacity batteries may need a shorter time frame of
around 4-6 hours to restore a battery to peak condition.
OVERLOAD
Prolonged charging of deep discharged batteries or attempting to charge a battery larger
than 80 amp hours can cause the charger to overheat. If this occurs, the chargers
thermal overload switch will activate. This cycling will not damage either the charger or
the battery, however if this situation occurs for more than 2 hours, please switch off the
charger and disconnect from the battery and wall outlet. It is advisable if this occurs
whilst charging a battery less than 80 amp hours, to have your battery checked by an
automotive electrician.
LOW MAINTENANCE BATTERIES
It is advisable to not overcharge a low maintenance battery.
Low maintenance batteries are easily recognizable as they do not have removable filler
caps.
Do not attempt to recharge a sealed lead acid battery, commonly found in UPS
(uninterruptible power supplies) devices, mobility scooters, alarm systems etc. This
charger is not designed for these types of batteries.
