OPERATION AND USE
1- Ensure that the area is well ventilated before performing a test.
2- Tester for 12 V batteries and systems for 12 & 24 V charging (Only 12 volt for START & STOP batteries)
3- Before running a test on the battery, make sure the ignition is off, the accessories are also off.
Close all the doors and the boot.
4- Recommended operating temperature: From 0°C (32°F) to 50°C (122°F)
5- Make sure the battery terminals are clean. If necessary, clean them using a wire brush.
Any presence of oxidation between the tester terminals and the battery connectors or between the battery connectors
and the battery terminals reduces the effectiveness of the tester.
6- Make sure that there is a 9 V Alkaline battery in the battery compartment (see diagram below).
Remove the protective cover
7- Connect the negative (black) terminal to the negative terminal of the battery. Connect the positive plug (red) to the
positive terminal of the battery.
To test a 24V system (2 x 12 V), test one battery at a time. The test procedure is identical to that of a 12V battery.
