TEST PREPARATION

CAUTION: Because of the possibility of personal
!
injury, always use extreme caution when working
with batteries. Follow all BCI (Battery Council
International) safety recommendations.

SELECTING A LANGUAGE

Press and hold down both ARROW buttons while connecting to a
battery. Scroll to the desired language, then press ENTER to select.

PRIOR TO TESTING

• Clean the battery terminals with a wire brush before testing.
• At the start of the test, make sure all vehicle accessory loads
are off and the ignition is in the OFF position.

CONNECTING THE ANALYZER

IMPORTANT: For accurate test results when testing Group 31
batteries, the clamps are designed to connect to the lead stud
adapters or to the lead bases of threaded studs (Figures 1 and
2). Stud adapters are included with the Micro740. Do not
connect directly onto the threaded studs.

Testing Individual Batteries

Every battery in a pack of two or more should be disconnected
before testing. If you enter a number greater than 1 and the analyzer
detects that the batteries are connected, it will remind you to
disconnect the pack before starting the test.
1. Screw the negative (–) terminal adapter onto the negative stud,
and the positive (+) adapter onto the positive stud.
2. Connect the red clamp to the positive (+) terminal.
3. Connect the black clamp to the negative (–) terminal.
4. For a proper connection, rock the clamps back and forth. Both
sides of the clamp must be firmly connected before testing
(Figure 1). If the message CHECK CONNECTION appears,
clean the terminals and/or reconnect the clamps
