NOTE: Not using a battery charger
with the proper float maintenance
will damage the battery if connected
over extended periods.
Charging
NOTE: Use of the CTEK Multi US
800 or the CTEK Multi US 3300 for
battery maintenance charging is rec-
ommended.
1. Be sure the battery and terminals
have been cleaned with a baking
soda and water solution.
2. Be sure the charger and battery are
in a well-ventilated area and ensure
the battery charger cables will not
contact any battery acid. Be sure the
charger is unplugged from the 110-
volt electrical outlet.
3. Connect the red terminal lead from
the charger to the positive terminal
of the battery; then connect the black
terminal lead of the charger to the
negative terminal of the battery.
4. Plug the charger into a 110-volt elec-
trical outlet.
5. By pushing the Mode button (A) on
the left side of the charger, select the
Normal Charge Icon (E). The Nor-
mal Charge Indicator (C) should
illuminate on the upper left portion
of the charger.
6. The battery will charge to 95% of its
capacity at which time the Mainte-
nance Charge Indicator (D) will illu-
minate.
NOTE: For optimal charge and per-
formance, leave the charger con-
nected to the battery for a minimum
1 hour after the Maintenance Charge
Indicator (D) illuminates. If the bat-
tery becomes hot to the touch, stop
charging. Resume after it has
cooled.
7. Once the battery has reached full
charge, unplug the charger from the
110-volt electrical outlet.
NOTE: If, after charging, the bat-
tery does not perform to operator
expectations, bring the battery to an
authorized dealer for further trouble-
shooting.
Jump-Starting
NOTE: Jump-starting a vehicle
with a dead battery is not recom-
mended but rather removing the bat-
tery, servicing it, and correctly
charging it; however, in an emer-
gency, it may be necessary to jump-
start a vehicle. If so, use the follow-
ing procedure to carefully and safely
complete this procedure.
1. On the vehicle to be jump-started,
remove the battery cover and any
terminal boots.
2. Inspect the battery for any signs of
electrolyte leaks, loose terminals, or
bulging sides. Leaking or bulging
battery cases may indicate a frozen
or shorted battery.
! WARNING
Improper handling or connecting of a
battery may result in serious injury
including acid burns, electrical burns,
or blindness as a result of an explo-
sion. Always remove rings and
watches.
! WARNING
Any time service is performed on a
battery, the following must be
observed: keep sparks, open flame,
cigarettes, or any other flame away.
Always wear safety glasses. Protect
skin and clothing when handling a
battery. When servicing battery in
enclosed space, keep the area well-
