repeat the above process.
IMPORTANT:
• The battery tester shows an error
message (RED CLIP UNCONNECTED
BLACK CLIP UNCONNECTED) if the battery
lugs are not connected correctly.
• If the battery voltage exceeds 15 V the
battery tester shows a warning message
(CHECK CONNECTION/VOLTAGE HIGH).
• It is not possible to go back to the
previous setting if battery type or cold
start current has already been selected
and confirmed. The contact clips on the
battery tester must be disconnected and
a new selection made from the
beginning.

1. Clean the battery terminals and lugs.
If necessary use a brass brush to remove
oxide and impurities. Make sure that the
lugs are in good contact with the battery
terminals.
2. Check that the battery casing is not
cracked or otherwise damaged.
Do not use the battery tester on
damaged batteries.
3. To obtain accurate and reliable results,
fully charge the battery and leave it to
stand for at least 1 hour, preferably up to
5 hours, to stabilise.
IMPORTANT:
The battery tester can be damaged if it is
connected to a voltage higher than 18 VDC.
COLD START/CCA TEST
(ONLY 12 V)
A cold start test (Cold Crank Amps, CCA) checks
the condition of the battery and calculates its
cold start current. Connect the battery tester to
the battery, red contact clip to positive terminal
(+), black contact clip to negative terminal (–).
The battery tester shows the battery voltage.
1. Press [Enter] to go to battery type selection.
2. Select battery type: VRLA/GEL, AGM
SPIRAL, AGM FLAT, REGULAR or REGULAR
LIQUID with the buttons [+] and [–].
Press ENTER to confirm the selection and
continue.
3. Use the buttons [+] and [–] to set the
battery’s nominal cold start current
(specified on battery). The setting takes
place in steps of 10 A.
4. Press [Enter] to start the test. The result is
shown in a few seconds.
5. Press Enter] again to start a new test and
