Battery Tester Operation
Note: Each time you connect the tester to a battery, the tester will run a quick
cable verification to ensure a proper connection through the output cables to
sensors in the clamp jaws. If the connection checks out OK, the display will
momentarily flash “Output Cable Check Complete” and proceed to the Home
Screen. If the connection is poor, the display will show “Cable Error – Replace
Cables.” In this case, check cable connections for visible signs of damage, as
you may need to replace the cable ends. Call Technical Service at 800.328.2921
with any questions.
Battery Testing
1. Before you test a battery in a vehicle, turn off the ignition, all accessories and
loads. Close all the vehicle doors and the trunk lid.
2. Make sure the battery terminals are clean. See Preparing Battery to Be Tested.
