6. When charging is complete, disconnect the Ac cord from the supply mains, remove the
clamp from the vehicle's chassis, and then remove the clamp from the battery terminal.
BATTERY CONNECTION INDICATOR
If the charger does not detect a properly connected battery, charging will not start and the digital
display will show one of two messages. if the display shows CONNeCT ClAMPS, make sure
the charger is connected to the battery and the connection points are clean and making a good
connection. if the display shows WArNINg-ClAMPS reVerSeD, unplug the charger from
the AC outlet, reverse the connections at the battery, and then plug the charger back in.

Times are based on a 50% discharged battery and may change,
depending on age and condition of battery.
AUTOMATIC ChARgINg MODE
When an Automatic charge is performed, the charger switches to the Maintain Mode
automatically after the battery is charged. For a battery with a starting voltage under 1 volt, use a
manual charger to pre-charge the battery for five minutes, to get additional voltage into the battery.
ABORTED ChARgE
If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging aborts, the
charger's output is shut off, the gREEN lED will flash, and the display will show CHArge
ABOrTeD-BAD BATTery. Do not continue attempting to charge this battery. Check the
battery and replace, if necessary.
ChARgE COMPlETION AND MAINTAIN MODE (FlOAT MODE MONITORINg)
Charge completion is indicated by the pulsing gREEN lED and the digital display showing
FUlly CHArgeD-AUTO MAINTAININg. this indicates the charger has switched to
the Maintain Mode of operation. In this mode, the charger keeps the battery fully charged
by delivering a small current when necessary. NOTE: if the charger has to provide its
maximum maintain current for a continuous 12 hour period, it will go into Abort Mode (see
Aborted Charge section). This is usually caused by a drain on the battery, or the battery
could be bad. Make sure there are no loads on the battery. If there are, remove them. If
there are none, have the battery checked or replaced.
MAINTAININg A BATTERY
The SPI15S maintains 12 volt batteries, keeping them at full charge. It is not recommended
for industrial applications.
NOTE: The maintain mode technology allows you to safely charge and maintain a healthy battery
for extended periods of time. However, problems with the battery, electrical problems in the
vehicle, improper connections or other unanticipated conditions could cause excessive current
draws. As such, occasionally monitoring your battery and the charging process is recommended.
FAN
Your charger is equipped with a fan. it is normal for the fan to run while the charger is charging.
Keep the area near the charger free of obstructions, to allow the fan to operate efficiently.
