Before Testing Begins
1. Install/verify that there are 6 AA alkaline 1.5V batteries installed into the
tester battery chamber located on the back of the unit. Li-Ion or lithium
batteries are not recommended because of the initial 1.7 Volt output. When
the batteries are weak, the screen will display “POWER LOW.” Replace all 6
batteries at the same time.
Note:
Nothing will be seen on the display until
the tester is connected to a vehicle battery. Each time the tester is
connected to a battery, the tester will run a quick cable verification to
ensure a proper connection through the output cables to sensors in the
clamp jaws. If the connection checks out OK, the display will momentarily
flash and proceed to the Home Screen. In operation the tester will only
show three results: CHECK CLAMPS / VOLTAGE HIGH / VOLTAGE LOW.
2. Ensure that the area around the vehicle battery is well ventilated while the
battery is being tested.
3. Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in
contact with your eyes.
