OPERATING MODE WITH TESTER FUNCTION
When it is not connected to the mains supply, this charger is a battery tester. It lets you know
the state of the battery. The integrated voltmeter informs you:
•
<12.3V : battery to be charged
•
between 12.3 and 12.6V : middle charge
•
>12.6V : charged
CONNECTION IN CHARGER FUNCTION
Preliminary precautions
•
For indoor use, with good ventilation.
•
Remove the battery caps if there is, and check the level of liquid. If it is not correct, filled up
with distilled water. Clean well the battery terminals.
•
Check if the battery capacity and voltage are compatible with your charger.
Connection and disconnection
•
Disconnect from the battery all electronic system during the charge (do not charge the battery
when it is connected on the car).
•
Connect the clamps (+ red, - black) to + and - battery terminals, making sure you get a good
