charge and it should be discharged by turning ON the Head lights for
3~5 minutes before testing.
Always attached the analyzer clips on the lead side of the battery
terminal posts during testing so that it has a good contact. This will
provide better and accurate results.
Do not attach the analyzer clips directly onto the steel bolt that
tightened to the battery terminal posts; this may give inaccurate
readings or inconsistent results. (Note: This also applies to all other
battery testing methods.)
If the battery terminal posts were oxidized or badly corroded and
the connections were bad, the analyzer will prompt you to check
the connections. In this case, clean the terminal posts and performs
testing directly on the terminal posts it-self.
During testing on the battery whist it is still in the car, make sure the
engine is OFF.
Do not store the battery analyzer near high humidity or temperature
area. Exposing to extreme temperatures will cause damage to the
unit.
4. Working with Batteries
Lead-acid batteries contain a sulfuric acid electrolyte, which is a highly
corrosive poison and will produce gasses when recharged and explode if
ignited. This will hurt you--BAD
When working with batteries, you need to have plenty of ventilation,
remove your jewelry, wear protective eyewear (safety glasses) and
clothing, and exercise caution.
Do not allow battery electrolyte to mix with salt water. Even small
quantities of this combination will produce chorine gas that can KILL you!
Whenever possible, please follow the manufacturer's instructions for
testing, jumping, installing, charging and equalizing batteries.
