SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A BATTERY

1. If battery electrolyte contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap

and water. If electrolyte enters your eye, immediately flood the eye with

running clean cold water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention

immediately.

2. Clean the battery terminals before they are connected to the charger. Be

careful to keep corrosion from coming into contact with your eyes.

3. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal operation. Use in a well-

ventilated area.

4. Consider having someone close enough or within the range of your voice

to come to your aid when you work near a battery.

5. DO NOT smoke, strike a match, or cause a spark in vicinity of a battery or

engine. Avoid explosive gas, flames and sparks.

6. Remove all rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches while working with a

vehicle battery. These items may produce a short-circuit that could cause

severe burns.

7. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery.

It might spark or short-circuit a battery or other electrical hardware which

may cause an explosion or fire.

8. Study all battery manufacturer's specific precautions such as removing or

not removing cell caps while charging and recommended rates of

charge.

9. When it is necessary to remove a battery from a vehicle to charge it,

always remove the grounded terminal from the battery first. Make sure all

accessories in the vehicle are off.

10. It is NOT intended to supply power to an extra-low-voltage electrical

system or to charge dry-cell batteries. Charging dry-cell batteries may burst

and cause injury to persons and property.

11. NEVER charge a frozen, damaged, leaking or non-rechargeable battery.

THE CHARGING PROCESS

STEP 1: DIAGNOSIS

Check if the battery has connected with the charger and also check the

battery voltage.

STEP 2: DESULPHATION

If battery voltage is too low, the program automatically generates a pulsing

current to remove sulphate.

STEP 3: ANALYSE

Check if the battery voltage reaches to the minimum threshold after

desulphation, and charging begins if the battery voltage is OK.

STEP 4: SOFT START

Charge with stepped constant current.

STEP 5: BULK

Charge with constant maximum current until the battery voltage has reached

the threshold.

STEP 6: ABSORPTION

Provide gradually declining current charge for maximum battery voltage.

STEP 7: ANALYSE

Test if the battery can hold charge

STEP 8: MAINTENANCE

Continuously monitor the battery, and charging current will intelligently adapt

to the variable battery voltage. (pulse form protection).

CONNECTING TO THE BATTERY

1. Identify the polarity of battery posts. The positive battery terminal is

typically marked by these letters or symbol (POS,P,+). The negative battery

terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (NEG,N,-).

2. DO NOT make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines, or thin metal

parts.

3. Identify if you have a negative or positive grounded vehicle. This can be

done by identifying which battery post (NEG or POS) is connected to the

chassis.

•FOR A NEGATIVE GROUNDED VEHICLE (MOST COMMON): connect the

RED POSITIVE clamp first to the positive battery terminal, then connect

the BLACK NEGATIVE clamp to the negative battery terminal or vehicle

chassis.

•FOR A POSITIVE GROUNDED VEHICLE (VERY UNCOMMON): connect the

BLACK NEGATIVE clamp first to the negative battery terminal, then

connect the RED POSITIVE clamp to the positive battery terminal or

vehicle chassis.

4. When disconnecting, disconnect in the reverse sequence, removing the

negative first (or positive first for positive ground systems).
