CHARGING WITH THE TERMINAL RINGS
1. With the ring terminals connected to the battery and with ring
terminal connector held as far away from the battery as practical,
insert the double barrel tip of the terminal ring cable into the double
barrel tip of the battery charger cable (male-to-female and female-
to-male). Then plug the battery charger’s power cord into an AC
outlet. The power LED will light blue to indicate that the charger is
plugged in and ready.
NOTE:
If the Power LED does not come on, check connection
with the AC outlet. Make sure the AC outlet is functional.
2. When the unit is properly connected and charging, the battery
charging LED ( ) will light yellow to indicate the battery is charging.
NOTES:
A. If the terminal rings are incorrectly connected with regard to
polarity, the Reverse Polarity/Fault LED ( ) will light. Unplug
the charger; then remove the terminal rings. Reconnect the
terminal rings properly.
B. If the Charging LED did not come on, check the connection
to the battery. If the terminal rings are properly connected,
the battery may be in fault condition. Manufacturer suggests
to have the battery tested by a qualified battery service
technician.
3. When the charging complete LED ( ) lights green, the battery is
fully charged.
When the battery is completely charged, the unit automatically goes into
Float Charge Mode. In this mode, the unit monitors the battery voltage
and charges as necessary to assure the selected battery maintains a full
charge. The unit remains in Float Charge Mode as long as the charger
is connected to the battery and plugged into a functioning AC outlet.
When disconnecting charger, disconnect AC cord, and then remove
the terminal rings from battery terminals.
Care and Maintenance
CLEANING AND STORAGE

the controls will not reduce this risk.

• Clean the unit casing and cords (as necessary) with a dry (or slightly
damp) cloth. Ensure that unit is completely disconnected from battery
and power source before cleaning.
• To maintain the operating condition and maximize the life of the
charger cords, always coil them loosely for storage. Do not wrap
them around the unit or crimp them with a tight band.
