Operation
Note: Before any testing, make sure to clean the battery contacts.
1. Connect the Red Clamp (+) to the positive (+) terminal post on the battery. Connect the Black
Clamp (-) to the negative (-) terminal post on the battery.
2. Check the Battery Tester LED Window (See FIGURE 1) to determine effectiveness of charge. If
the Battery Tester does not register and no display is seen, double check that the Clamps are
connected to the proper terminal posts. Make certain a clean connection has been made
between the Clamps and terminal posts.
3. Flip the Load Switch until a solid and consistent measurement is indicated by the Battery Tester.
After ten seconds, read the meter with the Load Switch on. Do not test more than three times
in a five minute period. Allow one minute for cool down between tests. Note: Do not activate
the Load Switch for more than ten seconds. Note: If a battery does not have the charge
expected, have a qualified technician check the specific gravity. There may be an electrical drain
or charging system trouble. If charging does not raise the specific gravity, you may have a
defective battery.
Analyzing test results by color display: The Battery Tester will measure battery output/ charge
in two ways. The Condition Indicator (See FIGURE 1) will indicate a color telling you the
general condition of the battery.
Red = Bad, No Charge, or Completely Discharged
Yellow = Weak, Needs Recharging
Green = Good or Normal - Has Existing Charge
Analyzing test results by Voltage Reading: The color readout will indicate the battery voltage.
Green = Greater than 11.2 V - Battery is fully charged;
Yellow = Between 9.5 and 11.2 V - Battery is undercharged;
Red = Less Than 9.5 V - Battery is uncharged and possibly damaged
4. If the battery is without significant charge, charge the battery according to the manufacturer
and make a new test. If the new test is without significant charge again, then the battery is
defective.
Testing the charging system:
Warning:
When testing a system in a car/truck, the vehicle must be on a flat, dry surface. The transmission
must be in park and the emergency brake engaged.
Connect the Red Clamp (+) to the positive (+) terminal post on the battery. Connect the Black Clamp
(-) to the negative (-) terminal post on the battery.
Check the Battery Tester LED Window (See FIGURE 1) to determine effectiveness of charge. If the
Battery Tester does not register and no display is seen, double check that
the clamps are connected to the proper terminal posts. Make certain a clean connection
has been made between the clamps and terminal posts.
Start the engine and let it run. Without using the Load Switch, observe the voltage readout when the
engine speed reaches between 1200 to 1500 RPM.
Determine the condition of the loading system on the basis of the table:
