BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS17.
When a charging problem arises, make certain that the battery is capable of 17.1
accepting a normal charge. Use a good battery to double check all connec-
tions, 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 17.2
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17.3
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.
