PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REASON/SOLUTION

Short or no start cycle

when cranking engine.

Drawing more than the Engine

Start Rate.

Failure to wait 3 minutes (180

seconds) between cranks.

Clamps are not making a good

connection.

AC cord and/or extension cord

is loose.

No power at receptacle.

The charger may be

overheated.

Battery may be severely

discharged.

Crank time varies with the amount

of current drawn. If cranking draws

more than the Engine Start Rate,

crank time may be less than 3

seconds.

Wait 3 minutes of rest time before

the next crank, to allow the battery

and charger to cool down.

Check for poor connection at

battery and frame.

Check power cord and extension

cord for loose tting plug.

Check for open fuse or circuit

breaker supplying AC outlet.

The thermal protector may have

tripped and needs a little longer to

close. Make sure the charger vents

are not blocked. Wait and try again.

On a severely discharged battery,

use the 30<>12A Boost setting

for few minutes, to help assist in

cranking.

I cannot select a 6V or

12V setting.

The charger is equipped

with Auto Voltage Detection,

which automatically detects

the voltage and charges the

battery.

No problem; this is normal.

BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS

• When a charging problem arises, make

certain that the battery is capable of

accepting a normal charge. Double check all

connections, the AC outlet for a full 120 volts,

the charger clamps for correct polarity and

the quality of the connections from the cables

to the clamps and from the clamps to the

battery system. The clamps must be clean.

• When an UNKNOWN OPERATING

PROBLEM arises, please read the

complete manual and call the customer

service number for information. This will

usually eliminate the need for return.

If the above solutions do not eliminate the problem,

or for information about troubleshooting or replacement parts,

call toll-free from anywhere in the U.S.A.
