12. MAINTENANCE AND CARE

A minimal amount of care can keep your
battery charger working properly for years.
• Clean the clamps each time you are
finished charging. Wipe off any battery
fluid that may have come in contact with
the clamps to prevent corrosion.
• Occasionally cleaning the case of the
charger with a soft cloth will keep the
finish shiny and help prevent corrosion.

13. TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM
Charger will not turn
on when properly
connected.
Engine start does
not work.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
AC outlet is dead.
Poor electrical connection.
Battery is defective.
Drawing more than 200 amps.
Failure to wait 3 minutes (180
seconds) between cranks.
The charger may be overheated.
Battery may be severely
discharged.
• Coil the input and output cords neatly
when storing the charger. This will help
prevent accidental damage to the cords
and charger.
• Store the charger unplugged from the AC
power outlet in an upright position.
• Store inside, in a cool, dry place. Do not
store the clamps on the handle, clipped
together, on or around metal, or clipped
to the cables.
Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
Check power cord and extension
cord for loose fitting plug.
Have the battery checked.
Crank time varies with the amount
of current drawn. If cranking
draws more than 200 amps, crank
time may be less than 5 seconds.
When the Engine Start LED
blinks, wait 3 minutes of rest time
before the next crank.
The thermal protector may have
tripped and needs a little longer
to reset. Make sure the charger
vents are not blocked. Wait and
try again.
On a severely discharged battery,
use the
to 15 minutes, to help assist in
cranking.
