Maintenance And Care - Schumacher 101-7 Manual Del Usuario

If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging aborts, the charger's
output is shut off and the Clamps Reversed/Bad Battery (red) LED will light. Do not continue attempting
to charge this battery. Check the battery and replace, if necessary.
DESULFATION MODE
Desulfation could take 8 to 10 hours. If desulfation fails, charging will abort and the Clamps Reversed/
Bad Battery (red) LED will light.
COMPLETION OF CHARGE
Charge completion is indicated by the Charged/Maintaining (green) LED. When this LED is lit, the charger
has switched to the maintain mode of operation.
MAINTAIN MODE (FLOAT MODE MONITORING)
When the Charged/Maintaining (green) LED is lit, the charger has started maintain mode. In this mode,
the charger keeps the battery fully charged by delivering a small current when necessary. If the charger
has to provide its maximum maintain current for a continuous 12 hour period, it will go into abort mode
(see Aborted Charge section). This is usually caused by a drain on the battery or the battery could be
bad. Make sure there are no loads on the battery. If there are, remove them. If there are none, have the
battery checked or replaced.
MAINTAINING A BATTERY
This unit charges and maintains 12V batteries, keeping them at full charge.
NOTE: The maintain mode technology allows you to safely charge and maintain a healthy battery
for extended periods of time. However, problems with the battery, electrical problems in the vehicle,
improper connections or other unanticipated conditions could cause excessive current draws. As such,
occasionally monitoring your battery and the charging process is required.

12. MAINTENANCE AND CARE

A minimal amount of care can keep your battery charger working properly for years.
• Clean the clamps each time you are finished charging. Wipe off any battery fluid that may have come
in contact with the clamps to prevent corrosion.
• Occasionally cleaning the case of the charger with a soft cloth will keep the finish shiny and help
prevent corrosion.
• Coil the input and output cords neatly when storing the charger. This will help prevent accidental damage
to the cords and charger.
• Store the charger unplugged from the AC power outlet in an upright position.
• Store inside, in a cool, dry place. Do not store the clamps on the handle, clipped together, on or around
metal, or clipped to the cables.
