f)
For positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clip from battery
charger to NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) ungrounded post of battery. Connect POSITIVE
(RED) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away from battery. Do not connect clip
to carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy gage metal
part of the frame or engine block.
g)
When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, disconnect AC cord, remove clip
from vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from battery terminal.
h)
See operating instructions for length of charge information.
16) FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR
THE BATTERY MAY CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A
SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
a)
Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a
larger diameter than NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) post.
b)
Attach at least a 24-inch-long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable to NEGATIVE
(NEG, N, –) battery post.
c)
Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery.
d)
Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible – then
connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.
e)
Do not face battery when making final connection.
f)
When disconnecting charger, always do so in reverse sequence of connecting
procedure and break first connection while as far away from battery as practical.
g)
A marine (boat) battery must be removed and charged on shore. To charge it on
board requires equipment specially designed for marine use.
FCC Warning
Title 47 Subpart, 15.105(b)
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio television reception, which can be
determined by tuning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
-
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
-
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

USER INSTRUCTIONS
AUTOMATIC CHARGING AND BATTERY STATUS MONITORING:
Battery Tender® Junior chargers are completely automatic and may be left
connected to both AC power and to the battery that it is charging for long
periods of time. The charger output power, voltage, and current depends
on the condition of the battery it is charging. Battery Tender
chargers have a status indicator LED that provides a visual means to
determine the operating mode of the charger and hence the condition of
the battery connected to the charger.
The two-colored status indicator LED light is available to determine whether
the charger is operating in one of the 4 primary charge modes:
Qualification/Initialization mode: The Monitor Circuit verifies appropriate
battery voltage levels and good electrical continuity between the battery
and the charger DC output. The bulk mode (full charge, constant current,
battery is 0% to 80% charged), the absorption mode (high constant
voltage, battery is 80% to 100% charged), or the storage/float
maintenance mode (low constant voltage, battery is 100% to 103%
charged).
When the battery is fully charged, the status indicator LED will turn solid
green and the charger will switch to a storage/maintenance charge mode.
®
The Battery Tender
Junior charger will automatically monitor and maintain
the battery at full charge.
ATTENTION: The Battery Tender
FREE CIRCUITRY. The output alligator clips or ring terminals will not spark
when they are touched together. The Battery Tender
not produce an output voltage until it senses at least 3 volts from the
battery. It must be connected to a battery with the correct polarity before it
will start charging a battery. Therefore, if you plug the AC power cord into
an AC power outlet, and if the output alligator clips or ring terminals are not
connected to a battery, and if you touch the alligator clips or ring terminals
together, there will be no electrical spark.
THE OUTPUT CLIPS OR RING TERMINALS MUST BE CONNECTED TO
A BATTERY BEFORE THE CHARGER CAN PRODUCE AN OUTPUT
VOLTAGE.
TIME REQUIRED TO CHARGE A BATTERY:
®
The Battery Tender
Junior charges at a rate of 750mA, or 0.75A per hour.
Therefore, a fully discharged 15 Amp-Hour battery will take approximately
16 hours to recharge to 80% capacity.
