IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A BATTERY
1) Batteries generate explosive gases during normal operation. Use in well-ventilated area.
2) Consider having someone close enough or within the range of your voice to come to your aid when you work near a
battery.
3) Do NOT smoke, strike a match, or cause a spark in vicinity of battery or engine.
4) Remove all personal jewelry, such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches while working with a vehicle battery. These
items may produce a short-circuit that could cause severe burns.
5) Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. It might spark or short-circuit a battery or other
electrical hardware which may cause an explosion or fire.
6) Wear complete eye protection, hand and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near a battery.
7) Study all battery manufacturer’s specific precautions such as removing or not removing cell caps while charging and
recommended rates of charge.
8) Clean battery terminals before connected with the charger. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.
9) When it is necessary to remove a battery from vehicle to charge, always remove grounded terminal from battery first.
Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off in order to prevent an arc.
10) It is NOT intended to supply power to an extra-low-voltage electrical system or to charge dry-cell batteries. Charging dry-
cell batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and property.
11) NEVER charge a frozen, damaged, leaking or non-rechargeable battery.
12) If battery electrolyte contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If electrolyte enters eye,
immediately flood eye with running clean cold water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention immediately.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR USING THE CHARGER
1) Do NOT place the charger in the engine compartment or near moving parts or near the battery; place as far away from
them as DC cable permits. NEVER place a charger directly above a battery being charged; gases or fluids from battery will
corrode and damage charger.
2) Do NOT cover the charger while charging.
3) Do NOT expose to rain or wet conditions.
4) Connect and disconnect DC output only after setting AC cord from electric outlet.
5) Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock or injury to
persons.
6) To reduce the risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting charger.
7) To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
8) Operate with caution if the charger has received direct hit of force or been dropped. Have it checked and repaired if
damaged.
9) Any repair must be carried out by the manufacturer or an authorized repair agent in order to avoid danger.
CONNECTING TO THE BATTERY
1) Identify polarity of battery posts. The positive battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (POS,P,+). The
negative battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (NEG,N,-).
2) Do not make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines, or thin metal parts.
3) Identify if you have a negative or positive grounded vehicle. This can be done by identifying which battery post (NEG or
POS) is connected to the chassis.
4) For a negative grounded vehicle (most common): connect the RED POSITIVE jumper clamp first to the positive battery
terminal, then connect the BLACK NEGATIV jumper clamp to the vehicle chassis or negative battery terminal (vehicle chassis
is a better choice).
5) For a positive grounded vehicle (very uncommon): connect the BLACK NEGATIV jumper clamp first to the negative battery
terminal, then connect the RED POSITIVE jumper clamp to the vehicle chassis or positive battery terminal (vehicle chassis is a
better choice).
6) When disconnecting, disconnect in the reverse sequence, removing the negative first (or positive first for positive ground
systems).
NOTICE: If battery clamps are reversely connected to battery terminals, the ERROR light will be on. Exchange the battery
clamps to solve this problem.

button twice.
BOOST and SUPPLY modes are advanced charging modes that require your full attention before selecting.
Using 12V BOOST
To operate BOOST, the charger must be connected to a 12V lead-acid battery with the battery clamps connected. For optimal
results, allow boost to complete its 5-minute charge. After 300-second boost, digital tube will show “000”, and your are ready
to start your vehicle (whether FULL light is illuminated or not). If unsuccessful when starting your vehicle, let the battery rest
for 15 minutes and try boost again. Most vehicles will start with one (1) boost. Do not use boost more than two (2) times
within a 24-hour period. If two (2) boosts cannot successfully start your vehicle, have your battery replaced or evaluated by a
local battery store.
Using 13.6V SUPPLY
If not connected with the battery, the charger is in the power supply mode by default after starting up. 13.6V SUPPLY mode
provides a current of 7A (constant voltage and constant current). Prior to use, read your 12VDC device manual to determine
if it is suitable for use with this mode. As a power supply, it can also be used to retain a vehicle’s on-board computer settings
during battery repair or replacement. Both spark proof and reverse polarity protection are still able to function normally in
this mode. If positive and negative battery clamp touched or connected to each other, the charger will not generate sparks.
STEP 1: DIAGNOSIS (Check if battery has connected with the charger and also check battery voltage)
STEP 2: DESULPHATION (If battery voltage is too low, programs automatically generate pulsing current to remove sulphate)
STEP 3: ANALYSE (Check if the battery voltage reaches to the threshold after desulphation, and charging begins if the battery
voltage is OK)
STEP 4: SOFT START (Charge with echelon constant current)
STEP 5: BULK (Charge with constant maximum current until battery voltage is reached to the threshold)
STEP 6: ABSORPTION (Provide gradually declining current charge for maximum battery voltage)
STEP 7: ANALYSE (Test if the battery can hold charge)
STEP 8: MAINTENANCE (Continuously monitor the battery, and charging current will intelligently adapt to the variable
battery voltage)
NOTICE: After full charging cycle, use this battery to start matched vehicle’s engine. If engine cannot be activated (exclude
the problem of vehicle itself), it indicates this battery has declined storage capacity and need to be replaced.

ERROR LIGHT
When ERROR light is on, it means the charger detects invisible fault. Therefore, the user should solve the fault before use. If
the user could not solve problems, please consult the professional person.
The reasons may include the followings:
1) The battery voltage is rather low.
2) Reverse connection.
3) Overload.
4) When with buzzer sound, it indicates the temperature inside charger is too high. After the internal temperature reduces,
the charger will automatically start charging again.
