CODE
DESCRIPTION
CAUSE
F01
The battery voltage is still under
10V (for a 12V battery) or 5V
(for a 6V battery) after 2 hours of
charging.
Could be caused by trying to charge a 6 volt
battery on the 12 volt setting, or the battery
could be bad; have it checked or replaced.
F02
The charger cannot desulfate
the battery.
The battery could not be desulfated; have it
checked or replaced.
F03
The battery was unable to reach
the “full charged” voltage.
Could be caused by trying to charge a large
battery or bank of batteries on too low of a
current setting, or the battery may have a
shorted cell. Try again with a higher current
setting, or have the battery checked or
replaced.
F04
The connections to the battery
are reversed.
The battery is connected backwards. Unplug
the charger and reverse the connections to
the battery.
F05
The charger was unable to
keep the battery fully charged in
maintain mode.
The battery won’t hold a charge. Could be
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.
F06
The charger detected that the
battery may be getting too hot
(thermal runaway).
The charger automatically shuts the current off
if it detects the battery may be getting too hot
or the battery may have a shorted cell. Have
the battery checked or replaced.
If you get an error code, check the connections and settings and/or replace the battery.
