attached, unplug the charger, wait a few seconds until all lights are off, and plug the
charger back into AC power. If the charger is damaged, it will indicate a fault after
several seconds. Battery faults occur if the battery voltage is too high or too low, or if the
charger spends more than 24 hours in bulk (indicating a possibly damaged battery).
Battery faults are cleared by disconnecting the battery.
Temperature Fault Indication
Temperature faults are indicated by double flashing the charge indicator. While charging,
if the internal charger temperature becomes excessively hot, it will pause charging and
display a temperature fault. The charger will stop indicating a temperature fault when the
charger temperature cools. During charge, temperature faults may be caused by the
ambient temperature around the unit becoming very warm, if the charger vents are
blocked, if the charger is operated in a horizontal orientation, and possibly if the charger
is damaged. The charger will also display a temperature fault if the ambient temperature
becomes too hot to safely maintain a battery on float charge.
Input Fuse
This charger is equipped with a non-user-replaceable fuse. If the charge indicator does
not light when the battery is attached, first check to see that the output cable is not
reversed on the battery and that the power source is not controlled by a light switch, etc.
If the fuse is blown, the charger must be returned for service. The fuse value is selected to
avoid nuisance trips and should only blow if the charger is damaged. The fuse may also
blow due to high temperatures.

TROUBLESHOOTING
CHARGER DOES NOT START (no indicators) – Check to see if the receptacle is
controlled by a light switch or power strip switch and verify the connection is good and
the battery is not reversed. If the battery is below 1V it will not be detected by the charger
and is probably damaged to accept a charge.
