•
REGULAR:
This is the type of battery
usually used in cars, trucks, and
motorcycles. These batteries have
vent caps and are often marked “low
maintenance” or “maintenance-free”.
•
DEEP CYCLE:
Deep cycle batteries
are usually marked as “deep cycle” or
“marine”. Deep cycle batteries are
usually larger than the other types.
•
AGM, GEL CELL:
AGM and gel cell
batteries have sealed cases without
vent caps. Such batteries are often
smaller than the other types.
With the exception of AGM and gel cell
batteries, all other battery types may or
may not have vent caps.
Vent caps are
located on top of the battery and provide
a means to add distilled water when
needed. Batteries should be marked
with their type. If charging a battery that
is not marked, check the manual of the
item that uses the battery. If the battery
type is unknown, use the REGULAR
setting. Make sure the battery complies
with the safety instructions on page 3.
