Before Returning For Repairs - Schumacher Electric XM1-5 Manual Del Usuario

PROBLEM
Battery clips do not
spark when touched
together.

16. BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS

16.1 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.
16.2 When a battery is very cold, partially charged or sulfated, it will not
draw the full rated amperes from the charger. It is both dangerous
and damaging to a battery to force higher amperage into it than it
can effectively use in recharging.
16.3 When an UNKNOWN OPERATING PROBLEM arises, please
read the complete manual and call the customer service number
for information. This will usually eliminate the need for return.
If the above solutions do not eliminate the problem, or for information
about troubleshooting, call toll-free from anywhere in the U.S.A.
7:00 am to 5:00 pm Central Time, Monday through Friday

clips until a battery is

chargers, the clips

touched together.
