7. Scroll Arrow Keys to input the battery rating/capacity. Note that the Arrow Keys
will scroll, such that you do not have to continually repeat pressing each key.
Once proper battery rating is shown on the display, press "ENTER" to perform the
battery test (lasts 1-2 seconds).
8. The tester will ask about the current ambient temperature environment of the
battery, "Above 32˚F/0˚C? Yes/No." Chose the correct answer and hit ENTER.
9. Optional sequence determined by the tester. At this point, the tester may display
a question to more accurately provide an assessment of the tested battery. If the
display shows "Is battery charged?", toggle Arrow Keys to indicate YES or NO as
applicable and press "ENTER". If NO is selected, the display will show the Open
Circuit Voltage of the Battery and the instruction RECHARGE RETEST. If YES is
selected, see Step 10 below.
10. When the test is complete, the display shows the determined voltage of the
battery and the determined rating of the battery.
GOOD & PASS The tested battery is good and capable of holding a charge.
GOOD & RECHARGE The tested battery is good but needs to be charged.
RECHARGE & RETEST The tested battery is discharged. The battery condition
cannot be determined until it is fully charged. Recharge and retest the battery.
BAD & REPLACE The tested battery cannot hold a charge. It should be replaced
immediately.
BAD CELL & REPLACE The tested battery has at least one short-circuited cell.
It should be replaced immediately.
LOAD ERROR The tested battery is larger than 2000 CCA or 200 AH. Or, the
clamps are not connected properly. Check battery connection. If connection is
incorrect, reconnect and retest. If connection is correct, charge the tested battery
to full charge and retest, ensuring that a proper connection is made. If the reading
is still the same, the battery should be replaced immediately.
Note: If this outcome is displayed, the operator is asked if any
accessories have been left on as a possible cause. If it is found that
accessories were left on, charge the tested battery and retest. If it is
determined that no accessories were left on, the battery should be replaced.
