FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN THE BATTERY IS
16.
INSTALLED IN A VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY:
a. Position the AC and DC cords to reduce the risk of damage by the
hood, door, or moving engine parts.
b. Stay clear of fan blades, belts, pulleys and other parts that can cause
injury to persons.
c. Check the polarity of the battery post. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +)
battery post usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG,
N, -) post.
d. Determine which post of the battery is grounded (connected) to the
chassis. If the negative post is grounded to the chassis (as in most
vehicles), see item (e). If the positive post is grounded to the chas-
sis, see item (f).
e. For negative-grounded vehicles, connect the POSITIVE (RED) clamp
from the battery charger to the POSITIVE (POS, P, +) ungrounded
post of the battery. Connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) clamp to the
vehicle chassis, heavy gauge metal part of the frame, or engine
block, away from the battery. Do not connect to the carburetor, fuel
lines, or sheet metal body parts.
f. For positive-grounded vehicle, connect NEGATIVE (BLACK) clamp
from the battery charger to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) ungrounded
post of the battery. Connect POSITIVE (RED) clamp to the vehicle
chassis or engine block away from the battery. Do not connect the
clamp to the carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Con-
nect to a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine block.
g. When disconnecting the charger, turn the switches to OFF, discon-
nect the AC cord, remove the clamp from the vehicle chassis and
then remove the clamp from the battery terminal.
h. See the operating instructions for length of charge information.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN THE BATTERY IS
17.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY MAY CAUSE A BATTERY EXPLOSION.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR THE
BATTERY:
a. Check the polarity of the battery post. The POSITIVE (POS, P, +)
usually has a larger diameter than the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) post.
b. Attach at least a 24-inch long 6-gauge (AWG) insulated battery cable
to the NEGATIVE (NEG, N, -) battery post.
c. Connect the POSITIVE (RED) charger clamp to the POSITIVE (POS,
P, +) post of the battery.
d. Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from the battery
as possible - then connect the NEGATIVE (BLACK) charger clamp to
the free end of cable.
e. Do not face the battery when making the final connection.
f. When disconnecting the charger, always do so in reverse sequence
of connecting procedure, and break the first connection while stand-
ing as far away from the 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.
GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD
18.
CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
The charger should be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This charger is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in ac-
cordance with all local codes and ordinances.

12V SMART WHEEL CHARGER
DANGER:
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock. This
battery charger is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in FIGURE (A). A
temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in FIG-
URE (C), may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle,
as shown in FIGURE (B), until a properly grounded outlet can be
installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER:
the center screw of the outlet plate is grounded. The green-colored
rigid ear, or lug, extending from the adapter must be connected to a
properly grounded outlet - make certain it is grounded. If necessary,
replace the original outlet cover plate screw with a longer screw that
will secure the adapter ear, or lug, to the outlet cover plate and make
ground connection to grounded outlet.
NOTE:
IF A GROUNDING TYPE RECEPTACLE IS NOT AVAILABLE, DO
NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE UNTIL THE PROPER OUTLET IS
INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
19.
Attach the handle to the charger using the
four screws provided.
CHARGE CONTROL LAYOUT
20.
The control has a large 4-line 20-character
LCD display. User interface is through a 4-
button keypad with an ON/OFF, Arrow UP,
Select, and Arrow Down keys. ON/OFF
primary use is for turning the charger ON
and OFF the other 3 keys are primary used
for setting the different parameters available
to the end user.
OPERATING
21.
INSTRUCTIONS: CHARGING
When the charger is connected to AC Pow-
er the display will show manufacture and
program version, it will then default to the charge type screen. On
this screen the user can select a Partial Charge (will return about
75%), Complete Charge (this charge is controlled by the entered
parameters), Reflash Power, MEMSAVR, Crank, or Manual. The
desired type of charge is selected by pressing the ENTER button. If
a Partial or Complete Charge was selected it will display the Battery
Type Selection screen at this point. Select the battery type by using
the arrow buttons and then pressing ENTER. At this point will ask if
a "Battery Connected", if it is, press enter to start right way or wait 10
seconds and it will start on its own. Can return to the charge type
screen by pressing the ON/OFF button.
•
REFLASH POWER: Use to hold the voltage on the battery at the set
value while the vehicle is being serviced. Do not use without battery.
•
MEMORY SAVER: Is used with Memory Saver option to hold up the
vehicle voltage while charging the battery. Plug cable into the power
plug, then set charger for MS and press ON/OF to start. If it does not
see a voltage on the MS it will show an Error.
•
CRANK: Used to assist starting a vehicle. Select and follow the
screen prompts.
•
MANUAL: This mode can be used to operate the charger just like a
manual charger runs for the time set while limiting the current and
voltage.
