CHARGING A BATTERY
OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE
1. Place battery in a well-ventilated area.
2. Clean the battery terminals.
3. Connect the battery, following the
precautions listed in sections 6 and 7.
4. Connect the charger to a live grounded
AC outlet.
5. Select the battery type and charge rate.
6. Charging will begin within ten minutes
and finish automatically. (Press the
START/STOP button to begin charging
immediately.)
7. When charging is complete,
disconnect the charger from the AC
power, disconnect the negative clamp,
and finally the positive clamp.
8. A marine (boat) battery must be
removed and charged on shore.
AUTOMATIC CHARGING
When an Automatic Charge is performed,
the charger switches to the maintain mode
automatically after the battery is charged.

Times are based on a 50% discharged
battery and may change, depending on age
and condition of battery.
ABORTED CHARGE
If charging cannot be completed normally,
charging will abort. When charging aborts,
the charger's output is shut off and the
Bad Battery
(red) LED will light. The
digital display will show an error code (see
Troubleshooting for a description of the
error codes). Do not continue attempting to
charge this battery. Check the battery and
replace, if necessary.
DESULFATION MODE
Desulfation could take 8 to 10 hours.
During this time, the display will show "SUL"
and the BAD BATTERY
light. If desulfation fails, charging will abort,
the display will show "F02" and the BAD
BATTERY
(red) LED will stay on.

When 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
The SC1323 charges and maintains 6 volt
and 12 volt batteries.
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.
USING THE BATTERY VOLTAGE TESTER
1. With the charger unplugged from the
AC outlet, connect the charger to the
battery following the instructions given
in previous sections.
2. Plug the charger AC power cord into
the AC outlet.
3. If necessary, press the
button until the correct type is indicated.
4. Read the voltage on the digital display.
Keep in mind that this reading is only a
battery voltage reading; a false surface
charge may mislead you. Compare the
reading to the chart below.

POWER-UP IDLE TIME LIMIT
If no button is pressed within 30 seconds
after the battery charger is first powered up,
the charger will automatically switch from
tester to charger if a battery is connected. In
that case, the charger will be set to charge
at the
15A rate and AGM battery type.
