TROUBLESHOOTING
NO INDICATOR LIGHT - If the indicator light is dark, check the fuse and replace if necessary. If the fuse
is good, check the voltage switch setting and input power (is the receptacle controlled by a light
switch?). If all else appears normal then the charger probably needs repair.
NO CHARGE INDICATOR, NOT CHARGING - If the charger will not go into charge mode (yellow indica-
tor) then the battery is probably already charged. Try again with another battery which you know is
not charged.
FAULT INDICATOR - If the indicator light is red then either the outputs are hooked up in reverse or
shorted together. Make sure of the connection to the battery. Note: A nearly completely dead battery
(less than one volt) looks like a short to the charger. If you suspect the battery is dead, leave the
charger on the battery to see if it will go into charge mode. The charger will deliver a small amount of
current into a dead battery and may eventually go into normal charge mode and recover the battery.
If the charger will not go into charge mode within one hour, and then into float mode within 24 hours,
the battery is probably damaged beyond recovery.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
FUSE REPLACEMENT - The AC input module contains the main fuse and a spare fuse. Detach the
power cord. Use a flat head screwdriver or a coin to pry open the fuse drawer or holder. Replace the
blown fuse with the spare. You can use the old fuse to push out the spare fuse. Now is a good time to
install a new spare fuse. Replace fuses only with the same type (as indicated in this manual) and value
(as indicated on the charger).
CLEANING - Unplug the charger before attempting any cleaning. If it becomes necessary to clean the
enclosure, wipe the exterior of the enclosure with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Do not use an
abrasive cleanser. Do not spray cleaners directly onto the charger or immerse unit in water.
