7. A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on board requires equipment specially designed for marine use.

GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTIONS

1. This battery charger is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounded plug. The charger must be grounded, to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. The plug pins must fit the receptacle (outlet). Do not use with an ungrounded system.

2. DANGER: Never alter the AC cord or plug provided – if it does not fit the outlet, have a proper grounded outlet installed by a qualified electrician. An improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock or electrocution.
   NOTE: Pursuant to Canadian Regulations, use of an adapter plug is not allowed in Canada. Use of an adapter plug in the United States is not recommended and should not be used.

3. USING AN EXTENSION CORD
   The use of an extension cord is not recommended. If you must use an extension cord, follow these guidelines:

   • Pins on plug of extension cord must be the same number, size, and shape as those of plug on charger.
   • Ensure that the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
   • Wire size must be large enough for the AC ampere rating of charger, as specified:

*AWG-American Wire Gauge

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Remove all cord wraps and uncoil the cables prior to using the battery charger.
2. Included with your charger are two cord wrap cleats for storage of the clamp cables. To install, align the two tabs with the two receptacles on the back of the charger and push until you hear a snap.

CONTROL PANEL

• DIGITAL DISPLAY
  The display will show the battery VOLTAGE when the charger is not charging a battery. When it goes into charging mode, the display will automatically change to ON (to show charging has started) and then show the percent-of- charge of the battery being charged and either 6 or 12 (the voltage of the battery, determined by the charger). If you manually stop the charging process (by pressing the Rate Selection button) before the battery is fully charged, the display will show OFF
  NOTE: During charging, the display will go into sleep mode and will not show the percentage of charge or voltage of the battery. To turn the display back on, press any button.

• Battery %
   The digital display shows an estimated charge percentage of the battery connected to the charger’s battery clamps.

• Voltage
  The digital display shows the voltage at the charger battery clamps, in DC volts.

• BATTERY TYPE BUTTON
  Use this button to select the battery type.
  NOTE: 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 AGM setting.

• ****– Used in cars, trucks and motorcycles, these batteries have vent caps and are often marked “low maintenance” or “maintenance-free”. This type of battery is designed to deliver quick bursts of energy (such as starting engines) and has a greater plate count. The plates are thinner and have somewhat different material composition. Regular batteries should not be used for deep-cycle applications

• ****– The Absorbed Glass Mat construction allows the electrolyte to be suspended in close proximity with the plate’s active material. In theory, this enhances both the discharge and recharge efficiency. The AGM batteries are a variant of Sealed VRLA (valve regulated lead-acid) batteries. Popular uses include highperformance engine starting, power sports, deep-cycle, solar and storage batteries.

• ****– The electrolyte in a GEL cell has a silica additive that causes it to set up or stiffen. The recharge voltages on this type of cell are lower than those for other styles of lead-acid battery. This is probably the most sensitive cell in terms of adverse reactions to overvoltage charging. Gel batteries are best used in VERY DEEP cycle application and may last a bit longer in hot weather applications. If the wrong battery charger is used on a gel cell battery, poor performance and premature failure will result.

LED INDICATORS

• CLAMPS REVERSED (red) LED flashing:
  The connections are reversed.

• ON (Yellow/orange) LED lit: The charger is charging the battery.

• CHARGED/MAINTAINING (green) LED lit: The battery is fully charged and the charger is in maintenance mode.
  NOTE: See Operating Instructions for a complete description of the charger modes.

• RATE SELECTION BUTTON
  Use this button to set the maximum charge rate. Press the button until the desired charge rate is selected.

• ****– For charging small batteries, such as those commonly used in garden tractors, snowmobiles and motorcycles.
  It is also used to maintain fully charged large batteries.

• ****– For charging automotive, marine and light truck batteries. Not intended for industrial applications.

Times are based on a 50% discharged battery and may change, depending on age and condition of battery.

AUTOMATIC CHARGING MODE
When an Automatic Charge is performed, the charger switches to the maintain mode automatically after the battery is charged.

ABORTED CHARGE
If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging aborts, the charger’s output is shut off and the display will show “bad / bat” and an error code. Do not continue attempting to charge this battery. Check the battery and replace, if necessary.

DESULFATION MODE
The display will show “SUL” when a sulfated battery is detected, and the charger will go into desulfation mode. If the desulfation is not successful after 10 hours, the charger will go into abort mode. The display will show “bAd / bAt / F02”.

COMPLETION OF CHARGE
Charge completion is indicated by the Charged/Maintaining (green) LED. When lit, the charger has switched to the maintain mode of operation.

MAINTAIN MODE (FLOAT MODE MONITORING)
When the Charged/Maintaining (green) LED is lit, the charger has started maintain mode. In this mode, the charger keeps the battery fully charged by delivering a small current when necessary. If the charger has to provide its maximum maintain current for a continuous 12 hour period, it will go into abort mode (see Aborted Charge section). This is usually caused by a drain on the battery or the battery could be bad. Make sure there are no loads on the battery. If there are, remove them. If there are none, have the battery checked or replaced.

MAINTAINING A BATTERY
This charger maintains both 6 and 12 volt batteries, keeping them at full charge.
NOTE: The maintain mode technology allows you to safely charge and maintain a healthy battery for extended periods of time. However, problems with the battery, electrical problems in the vehicle, improper connections or other unanticipated conditions could cause excessive current draws. As such, occasionally monitoring your battery and the charging process is required.
