Carefully read all operating instructions before
using the Clean Power System.
Wear eye protection when working around
batteries.
The Clean Power System is equipped with a
power cord. Never use an extension cord that is
more than 50ft and it must not be smaller than
12 gauge. Make sure the extension cord and
receptacle are properly grounded.
Be sure to switch the power off before removing
the clamps to prevent arcing and potential
explosion from battery gases. Never remove the
clamps while the unit is on.
Keep sparks flames or cigarettes away from
batteries.
Provide adequate ventilation to remove car exhaust.
In extremely cold temperatures, check for frozen electrolytic fluid before connecting
the Clean Power System. Do not attempt to Charge a battery under 20°F. Allow the
battery to warm to room temperature before connecting the Clean Power System.
Never connect the clamps to more than one 12 volt battery at a time. Connection to 24
volts will dangerously overload the circuitry.
Do not expose the Clean Power System to rain or snow.
Warning! Never attach the
Clean Power System
to a battery that is connected to any
other tester or charging unit. Damage may result.
CAUSE OF BATTERY FAILURE
Incorrect Application
: Wrong size battery may have inadequate cold cranking Amp
rating for original vehicle specifications.
Incorrect Installation:
Loose battery hold-downs cause excessive vibration, which
can result in damage to the plates.
Improper Maintenance:
Low electrolytic fluid and corrosion on battery connections,
can greatly reduce battery life and affect battery performance.
Age of Battery:
If the date code on the battery indicates it is fairly old, the failure may
be due to natural causes.
Overcharging:
Overcharging caused by a high voltage regulator setting or incorrect
battery charging can cause excessive gassing, heat and water loss.
Undercharging:
Undercharging caused by a faulty charging system or low voltage
regulator setting can cause lead sulfate to gradually build up and crystallize on the
plates greatly reducing the battery’s capacity and ability to be recharge.
SAFETY
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Problem
Possible Cause
Reason/Solution
The unit is on, and
the voltage display
reads 0.0 Volts
The clamps are
not making a
good connection
at the battery.
Check for poor connections at
the battery. Clean connection.
Rock the clamp back and
forth so that the teeth on the
clamp jaw cuts through any
surface corrosion.
The connections
are reversed.
Unplug the unit and reverse
the connections. Check fuse.
The battery is
dead or defective.
Check the battery using a
battery tester.
The unit will not
start charging.
The battery
voltage is below
8 Volts causing
the unit not to
recognize the
battery.
Fully charge the battery using
a battery charger.
The unit is not
providing the
maximum rated
current.
The battery and/
or electrical
system is not
demanding the
maximum rated
current.
The unit is voltage limited
at the set voltage displayed
in the digital voltmeter. The
unit will provide up to the
maximum rated current to
keep the voltage at the set
point.
The cooling fan is
making noise.
The fan has build
up of dirt causing
it produce noise.
Blow dirt off of the fan blade
using compressed air.
