• Connect the Red POSITIVE (+) clamp to the battery Red POSITIVE (+) terminal
• Connect the Black NEGATIVE (-) clamp to the Black NEGATIVE (-) terminal
• Plug in the 230v mains power cord, and switch on power.
• The charger will take approximately 1 minute to complete its voltage
diagnostics to detect the correct battery voltage, once complete the correct
LED will illuminate for 6, 12 or 24V operation.

set to lithium or other conventional lead acid batteries, the charger will retain
that memory and maintain that charging profile when switched back on.
• Disconnect the Black NEGATIVE (-) clamp from the Black NEGATIVE (-)
terminal
• Disconnect the Red POSITIVE (+) clamp from the battery Red POSITIVE (+)
terminal**
• Re-attach battery terminal protective covers if previously removed.

Power Supply Mode:
This battery charger is fitted with a DC power supply mode. This mode will deliver
a constant 13.5 Volts at 8/12/16 Amps and can be used for powering 12V DC
appliances, lighting or used for testing 12V devices. The DC power supply also
has overload and short circuit protection which will cause the DC Power light to
flash when protection is activated. To return to normal, press mode button once
