1. To connect to a negative-grounded system, attach the red

POSITIVE output clamp to the POSITIVE post of the battery.

Twist the clamp back and forth to ensure a solid electrical

connection is made.

2. Connect the black NEGATIVE output clamp to a heavy, un-

painted metal part of the chassis or engine block, away from

the battery. (See illustration.) DO NOT connect the clamp to

the negative battery post, carburetor, fuel line or sheet metal

part.

3. Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.
4. To select the desired charge rate and battery voltage, press

the appropriate CONTROL BUTTONS: The CHARGING

(yellow) LED illuminates when the charging process begins.

If the CHECK (red) LED illuminates, ensure correct cable

connections.

5. To disconnect the Battery Manager, unplug its power cord

before disconnecting the output clamps. While standing away

from the battery, remove the output clamp from the chassis

or engine block. Finally, remove the output clamp from the

battery post.
