NOTE: This check may not be accurate for every make, manufacturer and model of
vehicle. There is wide variation in user-controlled electrical loads, alternator output
and wiring. Other factors include battery condition, temperature and engine idle
speed. It is recommended to check your alternator when it is known to be operating
properly to verify that this check is valid for your particular vehicle. Check only 12V
systems. Checking 24 or 36V systems will damage charger.
ENGINE START
The Engine Start Function can supply 75 amps for engine starting.
Engine Start Procedure:
1. Set the charge rate to 25 amps.
2. When the digital display shows 25 amps, press the 75 amps engine start.
3. The Digital Display will begin a countdown, starting at 999 to 000.
4. Once countdown reaches 000, the display will begin flashing 000, meaning that
the charger is ready to start.
5. The charger will deliver 75 amps for 5 seconds. The charger will then go into a standby
mode 000.
6. During this time, the charger can manually be set to any charge rate, and after four minutes,
the engine start procedure can be repeated if needed.

The following conditions may cause the FAULT CODES to be displayed:
• Poor connection to battery (or frame).
• Charging too fast – decrease charge rate – press 2/10/25 amp button to lower rate.
• Charging too slowly – battery is large and did not complete charging in 24 hours –
press 2/10/25 amp to charge at a faster rate.
• Shorted battery cell – replace battery (F01).
• Open battery cell – replace battery (F03).
• Reverse Polarity (F06) – disconnect AC then reverse clamp locations on battery and
frame.
• Internal overheat in charger – make sure fan is not blocked (F05).
INTERNAL SHORT CELL BATTERY (F01)
• If the battery being charged has an internal shorted cell, the FAULT CODE F01 will be
displayed.
• If FAULT CODE is displayed, Power Wizard recommends you take your battery to a
certified automotive service center for evaluation.
BATTERY NOT ACCEPTING A CHARGE
• Make sure that the charger is plugged into a "live" 110/120VAC outlet and Power LED is lit.
• Unplug charger and check battery connections – ensure that there is a good connec-
tion at the battery terminal and/or vehicle chassis.
• Check that the correct charge rate was selected for the battery being charged.
• Ensure that enough charging time was allowed for – check table on next page for ap-
proximate charging times.
