For a refresh charge, follow all instructions carefully.
1. The battery should be disconnected from a load or charger for at least two
hours before checking voltage. Check the battery voltage with a voltmeter. A
fully charged battery will register 12.6 V or higher.
2. If the voltage is less than 12.6 volts, recharge the battery at 2 amps or less
until the battery charger indicates charge complete.
3. When using an automatic charger, refer to the charger manufacturer's
instructions for recharging. When using a constant current charger, use the
following guidelines via the table below.
