6) OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure the DC output leads are connected properly to the battery. Double check the polarities of the
output leads.
INDICATOR LIGHTS:
To begin charging, connect the charger to AC power. The following will be displayed on the charger:
1) A YELLOW light is lit to indicate the battery is charging.
2) A GREEN light is lit for each bank to indicate any of the following:
a) The battery is fully charged and in maintenance mode.
b) No battery is connected to an output cord.
3) A RED light is lit if any of the following apply:
a) A short circuit.
b) The battery voltage is below 8.0 volts.
c) The battery is connected reverse polarity.
INLINE FUSE:
Each output cord has an inline fuse on the RED lead. This fuse serves as protection from surges and short circuits caused by a damaged char-
ger output cable. If a fuse blows, replace it with the exact type and rating of the original fuse. Improper battery connections will normally not
cause a fuse to blow since this is handled by the chargers internal circuitry.
7) MAINTENANCE / CLEANING / STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
Check battery charger for dirt, oil, battery corrosion, etc. Use a water and baking soda solution for cleaning corrosion. Wipe clean using a dry
cloth.
Check battery clips for dirt, oil, and battery corrosion; then disconnect from battery posts and clean as necessary with water and baking soda
solution and dry with a clean cloth.
When the charger is not in use, coil the power cord to prevent damage.
If power cord or plug becomes damaged, you may contact the Minn Kota Service Repair Department for service repair information. Otherwise,
dispose of the battery charger in compliance with local law. Damaged cords and plugs can cause electric shock or electrocution.
When storing the battery charger, store in a clean dry area.
NOTE
– A 12 volt battery with an open-circuit voltage below 4 volts has either been discharged to the point of internal damage, may be heavily
sulfated, or may have internal shorted cells. Attempting to charge a battery in this state is dangerous. The battery should be replaced.
CAUTION
– If a RED light is lit, disconnect the AC power from the charger immediately. Determine the reason based on the above information
and take the necessary corrective action to remedy the situation. If you are unable to remedy the situation and need help, call the Minn Kota
Service Department at 1-800-227-6433 and a technical support representative will be happy to assist you.
