Testing Batteries (Manual Procedure)

The charger's battery test recalibrates the battery and measures the battery's charge capacity to
ensure that the battery can hold a charge that is sufficient for effective service, which is at least
60% of its original factory charge capacity.

When should you Test and Recalibrate a Battery?

The SurePower and SurePower II Battery Packs automatically recalibrate and measure charge
capacity after a set service interval (1 year or 500 Amphere-hours discharged)
initiate a manual battery test, which recalibrates the battery and measures charge capacity, after
a shorter service interval (for example, after a specific number of charge/discharge cycles or
less than a year after the last recalibration).
Running a manual battery test resets the interval after which the battery
automatically recalibrates and measures charge capacity.
Note:
3-6
A battery will pass a battery test (the charger lights the Ready LED) if the battery can
be charged to at least 60% of its original factory charge capacity. If manual test results
in a charging fault, you should remove the battery from service and perform additional
testing (see the Troubleshooting section in Chapter 4.)
