BATTERIES MAY BE UNSTABLE AND UNSUITABLE
FOR CHARGING.
Using 12V Repair. [Press & Hold]
12V Repair is an advanced battery recovery mode for
repairing and storing, old, idle, damaged, stratified or
sulfated batteries. Not all batteries can be recovered.
Batteries tend to become damaged if kept at a low
charge and/or never given the opportunity to receive
a full charge. The most common battery problems
are battery sulfation and stratification. Both battery
sulfation and stratification will artificially raise the open
circuit voltage of the battery, causing the battery to
appear fully charged, while providing low capacity. Use
12V Repair in attempt to reverse these problems. For
optimal results, take the 12-volt battery through a full
charge cycle, bringing the battery to full charge, before
using this mode. 12V Repair can take up to four (4)
hours to complete the recovery process and will return
to Standby when completed.
CAUTION. USE THIS MODE WITH CARE. THIS
MODE IS FOR 12-VOLT LEAD-ACID BATTERIES ONLY.
THIS MODE USES A HIGH CHARGING VOLTAGE
AND MAY CAUSE SOME WATER LOSS IN WET
(FLOODED) CELL BATTERIES. BE ADVISED, SOME
BATTERIES AND ELECTRONICS MAY BE SENSITIVE
TO HIGH CHARGING VOLTAGES. TO MINIMIZE RISKS
TO ELECTRONICS, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY
BEFORE USING THIS MODE.
Connecting to the Battery.
Do not connect the AC power plug until all other
connections are made. Identify the correct polarity of
the battery terminals on the battery. The positive battery
terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol
(POS,P,+). The negative battery terminal is typically
marked by these letters or symbol (NEG,N,-). Do not
make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines, or
thin, sheet metal parts. The below instructions are for a
negative ground system (most common). If your vehicle
is a positive ground system (very uncommon), follow
the below instructions in reverse order.
