CHARGING TIPS

Reviving your battery: If you only wish

to charge your battery enough to oper-

ateyourvehicle;youdon’tneedtowait

for the entire charging process to be

completed. When the charger displays a

battery%of77ormore(seepage14),

the battery has usually been charged

enough for the vehicle to start and oper-

ate normally.

KNOW YOUR CHARGER

Read this entire manual before using your charger. The items below are additional

features of your charger.

Relay: Your charger is equipped with a

relay. This device turns the charge cur-

rent on and off to the battery. It is normal

tooccasionallyhearaclickingsound

when the relay is turned on or off.

Fan: Your charger is equipped with a

fan. The fan runs whenever the charger

is plugged into a 120V AC outlet.

Overtemperature Protection: Your

charger is equipped with an internal ther-

mocouple. If the temperature rises above

a preset level, the charge current will be

reduced to allow the charger to cool. If

the temperature can not be reduced at

the lower charge rate, the charge current

will be turned off until the temperature is

reduced to a normal level. The charger

will then continue where it left off. For

best results, do not place the charger in

direct sunlight or enclosed spaces with

high temperatures.

Completing an interrupted charge: If

the charging process has been inter-

rupted and restarted after the charger

displays a battery % of 85 or more, the

charger could go straight to Maintain

Mode(seepreviouspage).However,

if the original charge was started using

15A, the charge can often be completed

using the 2A rate.
