1) Once you have connected the charger to your battery, LEAVE it connected for the maximum time given for the battery
size in the table belo w, OR,until you observe a steady MAINTAIN LED indication.If you do not know the rated capacity
of the batter y, use the category indications in the table (see § 9).In most cases recharging of a discharged battery is
indicated by a steady BULK charging LED for not more than the «maximum» time indicated in the table,followed by the
ABSORB LED,and finally by a steady MAINTAIN LED. When the steady green MAINTAIN LED indicates,you can safely leave
the battery connected to the charger for longer than the «maximum» time indicated below, however, unless a steady
MAINTAIN indication is observed, there may well be some defect or problem within the battery, in which case there is
no point in leaving it connected any longer.
2) No LED indication at all when the charger is connected to mains, switched on, and connected to the battery : see
«Charging Procedure», clause 3.
3) Only the POWER ON LED is indicating : see «Charging Procedure» clause 4.
4) Steady BULK mode LED indication : LEAVE connected for up to the «maximum time» given below or until the green
MAINTAIN LED indicates steadily, if sooner. In most cases,the charging program will bring the battery to fully charged
«MAINTAIN» status within the time period given in the «normal hours» column in the table below. If the green MAINTAIN
LED does not indicate within the «maximum time»,the battery is probably damaged internally.
5) Steady green ABSORB LED : The ABSORB LED indicates that the battery is about 70% charged.At this stage a starter
battery could start a vehicle if essential, but it is best to leave it connected until the MAINTAIN LED lights. Deep cycle
batteries (for golf caddies and battery-driven vehicles) are also best left on charge until the MAINTAIN LED lights.
If the battery is being charged off-vehicle and charging has continued past the «maximum time» per the table below, the
battery may have internal damage.Disconnect the battery and have it tested by a professional.
6) ABSORB and MAINTAIN LEDs alternating : If the battery is being charged off-vehicle it may have internal damage. Leave
it connected for the «maximum time» per the table and if the condition persists,disconnect the battery and have it tested
by a professional.
7) Steady green MAINTAIN LED : the battery is fully charged and ready for use. You may leave it continuously connected
to the charger if you wish to maintain it fully charged over a period of non-use,even over a few months.
NOTE : if a steady green MAINTAIN LED indication occurs immediately upon connection of a battery known to have been
badly discharged or unused for some months prior to connection,the battery may well be deep-discharged.In such cases,
leave it connected for the "maximum time"per the table.
If flashing or pulsing of the charging LED's occurs during this time,refer to clause 6 above.If the battery proves unusable
thereafter, take it to a professional service dealer for testing and/or recycling.
8) Approximate average charging times are shown in the table.«Normal time from flat» is the average charging time to
recharge a flat battery discharged to the extent it will not turn the engine. «Maximum time» is the time needed to restore
a totally flat battery to fully charged status, for example a battery left without charge in storage for many months or a
battery totally discharged by a connected load such as headlights being left on for a week. The charger will attempt to
recharge any battery retaining at least 2 Volts (i.e.sulfated) though a significant degree of sulfation will prolong charging
time and may make this impossible.
