Consider having someone close enough by to come to your aid when you work 2.1 near a lead-acid battery. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts your 2.2 skin, clothing or eyes. Wear complete eye and body protection, including safety goggles and 2.3 protective clothing. Avoid touching your eyes while working near the battery. If battery acid contacts your skin or clothing, immediately wash the area with 2.4 soap and water. If acid enters your eye, immediately flood the eye with cold running water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention right away. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of a battery or engine.2.5 Be extra cautious to reduce the risk of dropping a metal tool onto the battery. 2.6 It might spark or short-circuit the battery or other electrical part that may cause an explosion. Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches 2.7 when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short- circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn. WARNING2.8 : Pursuant to California Proposition 65, this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. WARNING:2.9 Working in the vicinity of a lead acid battery is dangerous. Batteries generate explosive gases during normal battery operation. For this reason, it is of utmost importance, if you have any doubt, that each time before using your tester, you read these instructions very carefully. To reduce risk of battery explosion, follow these instructions and those 2.10 published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in the vicinity of the battery. Observe cautionary markings on these items. Do not expose the tester to rain or snow.2.11 PREPARING TO TEST3. Be sure the area around the battery is well ventilated while the battery is 1. being tested. Clean the battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in 2. contact with your eyes. Inspect the battery for a cracked or broken case or cover. If the battery is 3. damaged, do not use the tester. If the battery is not a sealed maintenance free battery, check the level 4. of each cell and if necessary, add distilled water until the battery acid reaches the level specified by the manufacturer. This helps purge excessive gas from the cells. Do not overfill. If it is necessary to remove the battery from the vehicle to test it, 5. always remove the ground terminal from the battery first. Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off to ensure you do not cause any arcing. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS4. PAPER LOADING Hook the tester up to a vehicle battery.1. Open the clear cover on the top of the tester.2. Place the roll of paper in the cover with the paper lead on the bottom.3. Insert the paper into the paper slot until it automatically starts feeding.4. Make sure the paper comes through the slot in the clear cover before 5. closing it. NOTE: This is a thermal printer. If the printer does not print, remove the paper roll, turn it over and re-insert it. NOTE: If you have a paper jam, pull the paper out slowly and carefully from the roll side of the tester and re-insert it properly. CONNECTING THE TESTER Before you test a battery in a vehicle, turn off the ignition, all accessories 1. and loads. Close all of the vehicle’s doors and trunk lid. Make sure you have put the six 1.5V AA batteries into the battery 2. compartment. If the 1.5V AA batteries run out of power, the screen will show POWER LOW. Replace the six 1.5V AA batteries before starting the test. NOTE: Nothing will be seen on the display screen until the tester is connected to a battery. Make sure the battery terminals are clean. Use a wire brush to clean them 3. if necessary. NOTE: This tester works best if the battery connectors have been removed and the battery posts have been cleaned. Any corrosion between the tester clamps and the battery connectors, or between the battery connectors and the battery posts, will degrade the tester’s efficiency. Clamp the positive (red) clamp to the positive (POS, P, +) battery post. 4. Clamp the negative (black) clamp to the negative (NEG, N, -) battery post. TO TEST THE BATTERY Once you connect the tester to a battery, the screen will come on and 1. display BATTERY TEST and the voltage of the battery the tester is connected to. Press the ENTER button. The screen will show BATTERY TYPE and STANDARD SLI type of 2. battery. To change the battery type to VRLA/GEL/AGM/SLA, press the FORWARD or BACK button. Once the correct batter...
