BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS18.
When a charging problem arises, make certain that the battery is capable 18.1
of accepting a normal charge. Use a good battery to double check all
connections, the AC outlet for a full 120-volts, the charger clips for correct
polarity and the quality of the connections from the cables to the clips and from
the clips to the battery system. The clips must be clean.
When a battery is very cold, partially charged or sulfated, it will not draw 18.2
the full rated amperes from the charger. It is both dangerous and damaging
to a battery to force higher amperage into it than it can effectively use in
recharging.
When an UNKNOWN OPERATING PROBLEM arises, please read the 18.3
complete manual and call the customer service number for information that will
usually eliminate the need for return.
If the above solutions do not eliminate the problem or for information about troubleshooting
or replacement parts, call toll-free from anywhere in the U.S.A.
