1: Introduction

Personal Precautions

Risk of explosive gases. Never

smoke or allow a spark or ame

in the vicinity of a battery.

Batteries can produce a highly

explosive mix of hydrogen gas and

oxygen, even when the battery is not

in operation. Always work in a well-

ventilated area.

Wash hands after handling.

REQUIRED BY CALIFORNIA PROP. 65:

Battery

posts, terminals, and related accessories contain

lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to

the state of California to cause cancer and birth

defects or other reproductive harm.

Inspect the battery for damage and check the electrolyte level. If the electrolyte level is too

low, replenish it and fully charge the battery. Always use the necessary safety precautions when

working with batteries to prevent severe injury or death. Follow all manufacturers’ instructions

and BCI (Battery Council International) safety recommendations, which include the following

precautions:

9Battery acid is highly corrosive. If acid enters your eyes, immediately ush them thoroughly

with cold running water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention. If battery acid

gets on your skin or clothing, wash immediately with a mixture of water and baking soda.

9Always wear proper safety glasses or face shield when working with or around batteries.

9Keep hair, hands, and clothing as well as the analyzer cords and cables away from moving

engine parts.

9Remove any jewelry or watches before you start servicing the battery.

9Use caution when working with metallic tools to prevent sparks or short circuits.

9Never lean over a battery when testing, charging, or jump starting.

The analyzer uses function-specic applications

accessed through a series of menus and icons

to guide users through the battery testing

process for consistent testing implementation

and accuracy. These are accessed using the

tester’s touch screen display. Test results can

be displayed on the full-color screen, printed,

Initial Power Up

When powered up for the rst time, the tester will take approximately 8 to 10 seconds to

boot up while testing the integrity of the internal software.

Test Preparation

Inspecting the Battery

Before starting the test visually inspect the battery for:

•Cracked, buckled, or leaking case. If you see any of these defects, replace the battery.

•Corroded, loose, or damaged cables and connections. Repair or replace them as needed.

•Corrosion on the battery terminals, and dirt or acid on the case top. Clean the case and termi-

nals using a wire brush and a mixture of water and baking soda.

•Low electrolyte level. If the electrolyte level is too low, add distilled water to ll up to ½ above

the top of the plates and fully charge the battery. Do not overll.

•Corroded or loose battery tray and hold-down xture. Tighten or replace as needed.

Testing Out-of-Vehicle

The preferred battery test location is In-Vehicle. However, for testing Out-Of-Vehicle:

•Always disconnect the negative cable from the battery rst and reconnect it last.

•Always use a carry tool or strap to lift and transport the battery.

1: Introduction EBT-965P

Failure to properly install lead terminal adapters,

or using adapters that are dirty or worn, may

cause false test results.

When testing side-post or Group 31 batteries, always use

lead terminal adapters provided with the tester—do not

test at the battery’s steel bolts. To avoid damage, never use

a wrench to tighten the adapters more than ¼ turn.

Testing In-Vehicle

The preferred test position is at the battery posts. If you must test at a remote-post location, it

should have both a positive and negative post. Otherwise, you must remove the battery and

perform an out-of-vehicle test.

At the start of the test, make sure all vehicle accessory loads are o, the key is not in the ignition,

and the doors are closed.

Connecting To A Battery

Do not connect the tester to a voltage source

greater than 30 Vdc.

Connect the clamps to the tester: the red clamp to the positive (+) terminal and the black clamp to

the negative (–) terminal. If the clamps are reversed when connected, the tester displays CLAMPS

REVERSED! Reconnect the clamps.

Make sure both sides of the clamps are gripping the terminals by rocking each clamp back and

forth. A poor connection will prevent testing, and the tester will display a CHECK CONNECTION

message. If the message reappears after reconnecting, clean the terminals and reconnect.

Setting User Preferences

Customize the analyzer by setting preferences in the Settings ( ) Menu, described in Chapter 7.
