Tool it DBT 300 - Battery Voltage

CONNECTING THE BATTERY TESTER
1- Make sure that the area is well ventilated before performing a test.
2- Tester for 12 V batteries (and START & STOP 12 V batteries) and test of the charging system.
3- Before performing a test on the battery, make sure that the ignition and the consumers are switched o.
