Safety
• Never expose the product to high temperatures, dust, powerful vibration, impacts,
humidity or moisture.
• Never use the product in explosive environments, for example near flammable substances,
gases or dust.
• Be careful when working near engines that are running because of the risk of injury. Internal
combustion engines produce toxic gases. Always make sure that there is adequate ventilation.
• Never try to open, repair, dismantle or modify the product in any way.
Product description
The battery tester analyses and displays the status of starting batteries without the need to
disconnect them from the vehicle. In addition to displaying the battery status, the tester also
analyses the vehicle's charging system.

• Check that the battery terminals are clean (no dirt or oxidation) to make sure that
the battery analysis is as accurate as possible.
Checking the battery label
Read the label on the battery to check the battery type, battery standard (if relevant)
and capacity.
Battery type
Normal
AGM Absorbent glass mat
EFB Enhanced flooded battery
GEL Gelified electrolyte lead acid
If no information about the battery type is given on the label, it is probably a conventional battery
with liquid electrolyte.
