to remove the surface charge. After
had switched OFF, let the battery rest for at least 1
minute to recover before testing commences.
The car engine and all other accessory loads must be
OFF during test in order to have an accurate result.
When attaching the analyser clips, make sure that the
battery posts were not oxidized or badly corroded.
Clean them first before clamping to it. Do not clamp
onto the steel bolts directly which may give inaccurate
and inconsistent results.

Testing on stand-alone batteries:

Clean the battery posts with a wire brush prior testing.
For side- post batteries, install stud adaptors. Do not
use steel bolts for better results.

posts, Red to the positive (+) terminal and
Black to the negative (-) terminal. Rock each
clamp back and forth for better contact.
