The Chart Method

Use the following table to more accurately determine the time it will take to bring a

battery to full charge. First, identify where your battery fits into the chart.

CCA = Cold Cranking Amps

RC = Reserve Capacity

Ah = Amp Hour

NR means that the charger setting is NOT RECOMMENDED.

Find your battery’s rating on the following chart, and note the charge time given for each

charger setting. The times given are for batteries with a 50% charge prior to recharging.

Add more time for severely discharged batteries.

13. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

13.1 After use and before performing maintenance, unplug and disconnect the battery

charger (see sections 6, 7 and 8).

13.2 Use a dry cloth to wipe all battery corrosion and other dirt or oil from the battery clips,

cords, and the charger case.

13.3 Ensure that all of the charger components are in place and in good working condition,

for example, the plastic boots on the battery clips.

13.4 Servicing does not require opening the unit, as there are no user-serviceable parts.
13.5 All other servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.

14. MOVING AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

14.1 Store the charger unplugged, in an upright position. The cord will still conduct electricity

until it is unplugged from the outlet.

14.2 Store inside, in a cool, dry place (unless you’re using an on-board Marine Charger).
14.3 Do not store the clips on the handle, clipped together, on or around metal, or clipped

to cables.

14.4 If the charger is moved around the shop or transported to another location, take care to

avoid/prevent damage to the cords, clips and charger. Failure to do so could result in

personal injury or property damage.
