battery. It can produce a short circuit current high enough to
weld a ring or the like to metal causing a severe burn.
PREPARING TO TEST:
1.
Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery
is being tested.
2.
Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from
coming in contact with eyes. Always wear safety goggles.
3.
Inspect the battery for cracked or broken case or cover. If
battery is damaged, do not use tester.
4.
If the battery is not sealed maintenance free, add distilled
water in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified
by the manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gas from
cells. Do not overfill.
5.
If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to test, always
remove ground terminal from battery first. Make sure all
accessories in the vehicle are off to ensure you do not
cause any arcing.
OPERATION:
BATTERY TEST
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 you have put 4pcs 1.5V batteries into the battery
chamber. If the 1.5V battery runs out of power, screen will
show “REPLACE INTERNAL BATTERY” or” POWER
LOW”. Replace those 4pcs 1.5V batteries before starting
the test. Oxyride batteries are not recommended because
of the initial 1.7 Volt output.
