charging the battery using
the battery clamps
WARning:
Always disconnect the AC plug from the AC mains socket first before connecting or disconnecting the
charger to or from the battery to be charged. Always follow the steps outlined in the "Safety Instructions" section at the
front of this manual.
1. Connect the battery clamps to the battery charger with the double-barrel in-line connector. The battery clamps are
color-coded. Red is positive; black is negative. These clamp directly to the corresponding connectors on the battery
terminals.
2. Insert the AC plug of the battery charger into an AC mains socket. The Power LED will light green to indicate the
unit is in standby mode and ready to use.
notes:
If the Power LED did not come on, check connection with the AC mains socket. Make sure the AC mains socket is functional.
3. When the charger is properly connected, choose the following operation mode for the battery to be charged by
pressing the Mode Selector Button.
• Motorcycle Mode, suitable for most of small vehicle like motorcycle
• Vehicle Mode, aims for general automotive vehicle.
• Frozen Mode, best for cold weather condition.
The corresponding mode of LED will light (green for Motorcycle Mode and Vehicle Mode, orange for Frozen Mode).
The charging process will start automatically for few seconds and the Charging LED will light orange to indicate the
unit is in charging mode.
notes:
If the battery clamps are connected incorrectly with regard to polarity, the Reverse Polarity LED will light red. Disconnect the
charger's AC plug from the AC mains socket; then disconnect the clamps. Reconnect the clamps with correct polarity and plug
the charger back in at the AC mains socket. Then select the correct operation mode.
If the Charging LED did not come on, check the connection to the battery. If the clamps are properly connected, the battery
may be in fault condition. Manufacturer suggests to have the battery tested by a qualified battery service technician.
4. When the battery is completely charged, the charger will automatically goes into Float Charge Mode and the
Charged LED will light green. In this mode, the charger monitors the battery voltage and charges as necessary to
assure the battery maintains full capacity.
The charger remains in Float Charge Mode as long as the charger is connected to the battery and is plugged into
a functioning AC mains socket.
When disconnecting the charger, do so in the following order: Disconnect the AC mains plug from the AC mains socket,
then disconnect the battery clamps from the battery terminal.

the steps outlined in the "Safety Instructions" section at the front of this manual.
1. Connect the vehicle adaptor plug to the battery charger with the double-barrel in-line connector. Insert the plug into
the 12 V DC accessory outlet of the vehicle.
2. Insert the AC plug of the battery charger into an AC mains socket. The Power LED will light green to indicate the
unit is in standby mode and ready to use.
