PROBLEM
Short or no start cycle
when cranking engine.
I cannot select a 6V or
12V setting.
• When a charging problem arises, make
certain that the battery is capable of
accepting a normal charge. Double check all
connections, the AC outlet for a full 120 volts,
the charger clamps for correct polarity and
the quality of the connections from the cables
to the clamps and from the clamps to the
battery system. The clamps must be clean.
If the above solutions do not eliminate the problem,
or for information about troubleshooting or replacement parts,

POSSIBLE CAUSE

seconds) between cranks.
Clamps are not making a good
connection.
AC cord and/or extension cord
is loose.
No power at receptacle.
The charger may be
overheated.
Battery may be severely
discharged.
The charger is equipped
with Auto Voltage Detection,
which automatically detects
the voltage and charges the
battery.

REASON/SOLUTION
Crank time varies with the amount
of current drawn. If cranking draws
more than the Engine Start Rate,
crank time may be less than 3
seconds.
Wait 3 minutes of rest time before
the next crank, to allow the battery
and charger to cool down.
Check for poor connection at
battery and frame.
Check power cord and extension
cord for loose fitting plug.
Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
The thermal protector may have
tripped and needs a little longer to
close. Make sure the charger vents
are not blocked. Wait and try again.
On a severely discharged battery,
use the 30<>12A Boost setting
for few minutes, to help assist in
cranking.
No problem; this is normal.
• When an UNKNOWN OPERATING
PROBLEM arises, please read the
complete manual and call the customer
service number for information. This will
usually eliminate the need for return.
