Ammeter The Ammeter indicates the amount of current, measured in amps, that is being drawn by the battery. As a battery takes on a charge, it draws less current from the charger. Correspondingly, the meter will show less current being drawn by the battery. When the current stops decreasing, the battery is charged. The 2 amp charge rate may indicate some activity on the meter, although the meter does not have the resolution to display this low rate. Voltmeter The voltmeter indicates the vo

Using the Battery Voltage Tester Overview This battery charger has a built-in voltmeter to test your battery’s state of charge. A recently charged battery could have a temporarily high voltage due to what is known as “surface charge”. The voltage of such a battery will gradually drop during the period immediately after the charging system is disengaged. Consequently, the tester could display inconsistent values for such a battery. For a more accurate reading, the surface charge should be r

General Charging Notes Fan: The charger is designed to control its cooling fan for efficient operation. Consequentially, it is normal for the fan to start and stop when maintaining a fully charged battery. Keep the area near the charger clear of obstructions to allow the fan to operate efficiently. Voltage: The voltage displayed during charging is the charging voltage and is usually higher than the battery’s resting voltage. 13. CALCULATING CHARGE TIME Use the table below to more accurately

17. BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS 17.1 When a charging problem arises, make certain that the battery is capable of accepting a normal charge. Double check all connections, the AC outlet for a full 120-volts, the charger clips for correct polarity and the quality of the connections from the cables to the clips and from the clips to the battery system. The clips must be clean. 17.2 When a battery is very cold, partially charged or sulfated, it will not draw the full rated amperes from the charg
