Connect the BLACK lead (battery clip) from the charger to the Negative (-) battery terminal.
Connect the RED lead (battery clip) from the charger to the vehicle’s chassis away from the fuel line or
moving parts.
STEP 4 – SET CHARGE MODE
NORMAL (recommended)
Switch the Charge/Engine Start switch to CHARGE.
Switch the Norm (Normal)/Boost switch to NORM.
BOOST (increases charge rate for a short powerful charge)
Switch the Charge/Engine Start switch to CHARGE.
Switch the Norm (Normal)/Boost switch to BOOST
Note:
Boost mode is intended for short periods of use only. If left on, the charger will automatically cut
out to prevent over-heating and possible damage to the battery. The charger will restart once it has cooled
down. During cut out the charge meter will read ‘zero’. Monitor the battery closely to ensure the battery is
not overcharged.
STEP 5 – CONNECT TO MAINS POWER AND TURN ON
Connect the battery charger to 240V mains power and turn on; switch the charger’s On/Off switch to ON.
STEP 6A – CHARGING
During charging, the Charge Meter’s needle will decrease towards the
left. A fully charged battery is indicated by a very low reading according
to the battery’s capacity and condition.
Once this point has been reached, proceed to disconnect the battery
(Refer STEP 7 “DISCONNECTION”).
Important:
Charging will continue until the On/Off switch is turned to OFF.
The battery and charger must be monitored to ensure the battery is not overcharged.
Once charged, the liquid inside the battery may start to boil. It is recommended to stop charging when
this occurs to prevent damage to the battery.
