Starting the tester for the first time
When the tester is first used the operator is asked to enter a
couple of items such as language, date and time. Changes
can be made afterwards by going in to the Utility Menu and
selecting CONFIG TESTER.
Safety
Because of the possibility of personal injury, always use
extreme caution when working with batteries. Follow
all manufacturers’ instructions and BCI (Battery Council
International) safety recommendations.
General Precautions
Battery acid is highly corrosive. If acid enters your
eyes, immediately flush them thoroughly with run-
ning cold water for at least 15 minutes and seek
medical attention. If battery acid gets on your skin or
clothing, wash immediately with water and baking
soda.
Always wear proper safety glasses or face shield
when working with or around batteries.
Keep hair, hands, and clothing as well as the analyzer
cords and cables away from moving engine parts.
Remove any jewelry or watches before you start
servicing the battery.
Use caution when working with metallic tools to pre-
vent sparks or short circuits.
Never lean over a battery when testing, charging or
jump starting it.
Risk of explosive gases.
Never smoke or allow a spark or
flame in the vicinity of a battery.
Batteries can produce a highly explosive mix
of hydrogen gas and oxygen, even when the
battery is not in operation. Always work in a
well-ventilated area.
Wash hands after handling.
