PREPARING TO TEST:
■ Be sure area around battery is well ventilated while battery is being tested.
■
Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes.
■
Inspect the battery for cracked or broken case or cover. If battery is damaged, do not
use tester.
■
If the battery is not sealed maintenance free, add distilled water in each cell until battery
acid reaches level specified by the manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gas from
cells. Do not overfill.
■
If necessary to remove battery from vehicle to test, always remove ground terminal from
battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off to ensure you do not cause
any arcing.
BEFORE TEST
■ Before you test a battery in a vehicle, turn off the ignition, all accessories and loads.
Close all the vehicle doors and the trunk lid.
■
Make sure you have put 4pcs 1.5V batteries into the battery chamber. Oxyride batteries
are not recommended because of the initial 1.7 Volt output. If the 1.5V battery runs out
of power, screen will show "REPLACE INTERNAL BATTERY" or" POWER LOW". Replace
those 4pcs 1.5V batteries before starting the test.
■
Note that nothing will be seen on the display until the tester is connected to a vehicle
battery.
■
Make sure the battery terminals are clean. Wire brush them if necessary. Clamp the black
load lead to the vehicle negative battery terminal. Clamp the red load lead to the vehicle
positive battery terminal. Please clamp on the lead part of the terminal only. Clamping on
the iron part of the terminal will lead to wrong test results.
