Engine Starting

This battery charger can provide a high-current output to help start a vehicle with a weak battery. However, the
onboard computer in some vehicles can be damaged when attempting to jump start. ALWAYS READ THE VEHICLE
OPERATOR'S MANUAL BEFORE AUXILIARY STARTING to determine if jump starting can do damage to the vehicle. If
not, read and follow these instructions.
CAUTION: Do not try to boost start a vehicle that does not contain a battery or you may damage electrical systems in
the vehicle.
1. Connect the battery charger to the vehicle according to Operating Instructions.
2. Charge the battery for 5 to 10 minutes at the appropriate charge rate for the size of battery.
3. Set the Mode Selector Switch to 200A Engine START and press start.
Note: The charger will enter Engine Start mode and stay in that mode for 30 seconds. If a start attempt is not
made within 30 seconds, the charger will return to standby mode.
4. Try to start the vehicle. If the vehicle doesn't start after 3 to 4 seconds, stop and wait 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat
until engine starts.
CAUTION: Excessive continuous engine cranking can damage vehicle starter motors.
Note: If the engine spins but fails to start after several starting attempts, there is an engine problem not related to the
starting system. Discontinue cranking the engine until the other problem is found and corrected.
This battery charger has an internal thermal protector to prevent overheating and damage to the battery charger.
After starting attempt, wait 3 to 4 minutes for the charger to cool. The thermal protector will automatically reset and
allow you to continue.
CAUTION: Make sure charger is unplugged from AC outlet before performing any cleaning or maintenance.
A minimum amount of care can keep your battery charger working and looking good for years.
1. Clean the clamps after each use. Wipe off any battery fluid that may have come in contact with the clamps
to prevent corrosion. Battery fluid may be neutralized with a solution of water and baking soda.
2. Coil the input and output cables neatly after each use. This will help prevent damage to the cables and the
charger.
3. If needed, the case may be wiped clean with a soft cloth.
4. Tighten cable-clamp screw.
Battery doesn't seem to be accepting a charge.
1. Make sure charger is plugged into live AC outlet.
2. After unplugging unit, check connection at battery. Make sure the clamps are making good contact with
the battery terminal (or vehicle chassis).
3. Check to see that the battery is capable of being charged – it may be damaged or sulfated.
4. Make sure you are allowing enough time for charging the battery.
Vehicle will not start in engine start mode.
1. Unplug charger and check connections as described above.
2. Determine if charger is charging; if display indicates increasing voltage at the battery, charger is working; if
no charging progress is indicated, wait several minutes and recheck.
3. If engine turns over but does not start, problem is with vehicle, not charger. Service vehicle.
