ELECTRICALPARTS:

AC power cord: 6 feet SPT-2 with UL plug

Output lead: 6 feet SPT-1 2X18AWG with insulated battery clamps.

ENVIRONMENTALCHARACTERISTICS:

Operating temperature range: 32 to 104° F

Storage temperature range: 10 to 170°F

Operating humidity range: 90% RH Max

ECO MODE:

If AC power is connected, and the battery is not connected, the charger

will automatically go into ECO mode. Input power draw in ECO mode is

less than 1.5W (0.04kWh per day).

Power consumption in maintenance mode is 0.05kWh per day

.

CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS:

STEP 1 - Pre Charge:

Battery & Electrolyte Level Check

Check the battery electrolyte level (Only for Flooded or WET
battery).

If necessary, remove the vent caps and add distilled water so the

levels are halfway between the upper and lower fill lines.
