LED METER
The visual display meter has 6 visible LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) that illuminate to
register the connected, charging and charged status of your battery.
CHARGING 12 VOLT BATTERIES
Note: the output leads are fitted with colored insulated clips for easy identification of
polarity
–
RED(+) for POSITIVE and BLACK(-) for NEGATIVE
1.
Ensure the power point is switched
OFF
before connecting or disconnecting
the charger to a battery.
2.
If possible, remove the battery from the vehicle. If not, ensure that the battery
leads are disconnected to protect the electronic systems within the vehicle.
3.
Remove the battery filler caps and check the liquid in the cells, topping up
with distilled water if required to ensure the liquid is at least 6mm above the
top of the plates. Note that the filler caps should not be replaced until the
charging process has been completed. This will aid in the dispersion of
battery gasses during the charging process.
4.
Ensure the polarity is correct and connect the clips to the battery terminals
assuring there is a firm connection. Once connected if the fault indicator light
up to red. Please check the below:
Polarity check
–
ensure the positive (RED) clip is connected to the
positive (+) battery terminal
Check the contact between the terminals and the clips to ensure sufficient
contact is made
Note that your battery may be completely flat or have damaged cells
meaning no charge can be applied
5.
Once the battery charger is plugged into a regular 240V household power
point, the power indicator will turn on the green light.
6.
Once the battery capacity indicator light is illuminated, the battery is charged.
