Charge Type:
• Use the MANUAL setting only if you
check the charging progress frequently.
The charger will not stop charging
when the battery reaches full charge,
possibly damaging the battery it left on
too long. You must monitor and unplug
the charger when battery is fully
charged.
• Use the AUTOMATIC DEEP CYCLE
setting for all deep cycle battery
charging. The charger will automatically
stop charging when the battery reaches
full charge and begin charging again
when battery requires.
• Use the AUTOMATIC REGULAR
setting for all but deep cycle batteries.
The charger will automatically stop
charging when the battery reaches full
charge and begin charging again when
battery requires.
• A severely discharged battery may not
have enough charge to start the control
circuit in an automatic setting. In this
case, charge on manual until the
battery has enough charge to accept
an automatic setting.
Charge Rate:
• Use the 2 AMP charge rate setting for
charging small batteries and warming
large battedes.The lower the charge
rate, the longer it will take to charge the
battery.
• Use the 10 AMP rate setting for
automotive, deep cycle and other large
battedes.
Use the 60 AMP ENGINE START
setting only to assist in cranking the
engine. 10 AM P

AMMETER:
The ammeter indicates the measured
amount of amperes being drawn by the
battery. When you first start charging a
battery, the reading will be high, with
the needle near 10 using the 10 amp
charging rate.
• In the MANUAL setting, as the battery
charges, the needle will fall to about 4
or 5 amps, indicating a charged battery.
In both AUTOMATIC settings, the
needle will fall to zero and the charger
will shut off when the charger's control
circuit senses a full charge. A freshly
charged battery's voltage will drop
shortly after charging stops, and the
charger, if left connected, may resume
charging. This off-and-on cycling will
continue until the battery's voltage no
longer drops enough to restart the
charger.
At the 2 amp charging rate you will
notice very little needle movement.
When cranking the engine while using
the ENGINE START feature, the needle
will swing into the Start (red) area of the
scale.

LED INDICATOR:
The green LED INDICATOR will glow
when the charger senses that the
battery has reached a full charge.
• When using the MANUAL charge
rate, discontinue charging when the
LED glows and the AMMETER
needle is about 4 to 5 amps in the 10
Amp setting.
• For deep cycle batteries, you may
wish to allow the battery another one
or two hours of charging after the
LEO glows to obtain a maximum
charge.
