If battery is in the vehicle:
The below is a guide, please consult your vehicle's owner manual for information and
procedures on your specific vehicle.
Determine if the vehicle is positively or negatively earthed.
If negatively earthed (most common) - First connect the red lead from the charger to the
positive (+) battery terminal and then connect the black lead from the charger lead to the
vehicle's chassis and far away from the fuel line. (Only if access to negative terminal is not
possible)
If positively earthed - First connect the black lead from the charger to the negative (-) battery
terminal and then connect the red lead from the charger to the vehicle's chassis and far
away from the fuel line. (Only if access to positive terminal is not possible).
Once connected to the battery, connect the charger to mains power.
The charger will automatically start when mains power is connected and switched on.
(Note: If the LED fault indicator illuminates red, please check your connections as it's likely
that the positive and negative leads are reversed. Refer to Troubleshooting for further
information).
Disconnecting the battery charger from battery
If the battery is out of the vehicle:
Switch OFF and remove the mains power socket from the outlet and wait for a minimum of
five minutes before disconnecting the charging leads.
Remove the black lead followed by the red lead.
Check electrolyte levels if possible. (They may need topping up with distilled water after
charging).
