OPERA
TION
When an AUTOMATIC CHARGE is performed, the charger automatically switches to the maintain mode once
the battery is charged.
AUTOMATIC CHARGING (12 V ONLY)
MANUAL CHARGING (6 V ONLY)
When the FULL CHARGE (green) LED is lit, the charger has started maintain mode. In this mode, the charger
keeps the battery fully charged by delivering a small current, when necessary. If the battery voltage drops
below a preset level, the charger will go back into charge mode until the battery voltage returns to the full
charge level, at which point the charger will return to maintain mode. The voltage is maintained at a level
determined by the battery type selected.
When a MANUAL CHARGE is performed, the charger will continue to charge and will not shut off. You must
keep a visual check on the ammeter to determine when the battery is charged. Be sure to monitor the
charging process and stop it when the battery is charged. Not doing so may cause damage to your battery
or result in other property damage or personal injury.
MAINTAIN MODE
Note:
The maintain mode technology utilized in this charger allows you to safely charge and maintain a
healthy battery for extended periods of time. However, problems with the battery, electrical problems in the
vehicle, improper connections or other unanticipated conditions could cause excessive current draws.
Occasionally monitoring your battery and the charging process is recommended.
Note:
An automatic charger automatically switches between charge mode and maintain mode as necessary.
The FULL CHARGE (green) LED will light up when the battery is at full charge and off when the voltage drops
below a preset level and the charger goes into charge mode. This cycle will continue, and the FULL CHARGE
(green) LED will stay on for longer periods of time as the battery becomes more fully charged. This is not
applicable to manual chargers.
When the FULL CHARGE (green) LED is lit, the charger has stopped charging and switched to the maintain
mode of operation.
