PERCENT OF CHARGE
The percent of charge scale is intended
as a visual aid to help simplify reading the
state of charge. The percent of charge is
based on the current drawn by the battery.
For this reason, accuracy will vary with
the size and battery type. This means that
the indication for a fully charged large
battery may be slightly less than 100%.
TOGGLE SWITCHES
(SE-2352 and SE-3612 only)
Model SE-2352 employs 2 toggle
switches:
• Switch #1 –
Use this switch to select the
200 Amp Engine Start and the 35 Amp
Charge Rate. Switch #2 must be in the
down position (Select Position) when
using Switch #1.
• Switch #2 –
Use this switch to select the
2 amp Charge Rate and the OFF position.
Also use to select use of Switch #1. Note
that Switch #1 is only effective when
Switch #2 is set to “Select Position.”
Model SE-3612 employs 3 toggle
switches:
• Switch #1 (Furthest left) –
Use this
switch to select the 12 volt 200 amp
engine start (down) or the 12 volt 40 amp
charge (up) position. The center switch
(#2) must be in the (up) position when
switch #1 is used.
• Switch #2 (Center) –

When testing a battery, use this switch to
apply a load to it.
BATTERY TESTER SWITCH
(SE-4022 only)
Use this switch to select either the 6 volt
or 12 volt battery tester setting.
VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH
Use to set the scale of the voltmeter to
either 6V or 12V DC, to match the battery
or batteries being charged.
NOTE:
This does not change the output
voltage of the charger.
VOLTMETER
The voltmeter indicates the voltage at
the battery clamps. The charger need
not be plugged into an AC outlet. The
timer should be in the OFF position.
Then connect the charger, following the
