Battery not
accepting a
charge
· Lack of AC input power
· Faulty connections to battery
terminals
· Wrong charge voltage selection
· Battery voltage too low
· Charging a very cold battery
· Make sure that the charger is plugged into AC
output and the POWER LED is lit.
· Unplug the charger and check the battery
connection; ensure that there is a good connection
at the battery terminal/post and/or vehicle chassis.
· Check that the correct charge voltage was
selected for the battery being charged.
· Ensure enough charging time was allowed to
charge battery.
· If the battery to be charged is extremely cold (in
temperatures below freezing 0 ºC), it will not accept
a high rate of charge, so the initial charger rate will
be slow. The rate of charger will increase as the
battery warms. Never attempt to charge a frozen
battery.
