BEFORE RETURNING FOR REPAIRS17.
When a charging problem arises, make certain that the battery 17.1
is capable of accepting a normal charge. 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 17.2
draw 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 17.3
the complete manual and call the customer service number for
information that will usually eliminate the need for return.
