from battery. Do not connect clip to carburettor, fuel lines, or sheet-metal body parts. Connect to a heavy
gage metal part of the frame or engine block.
g) WARNING: When disconnecting charger, turn switches to off, disconnect AC cord, remove clip from
vehicle chassis, and then remove clip from battery terminal.
h) See operating instructions for length of charge information.
16. FOLLOW THESE STEPS WHEN BATTERY IS OUTSIDE VEHICLE. A SPARK NEAR THE BATTERY MAY
CAUSE BATTERY EXPLOSION. TO REDUCE RISK OF A SPARK NEAR BATTERY:
a) Check polarity of battery posts. POSITIVE (POS, P, +) battery post usually has a larger diameter than
NEGATIVE (NEG, N, –) post.
b) Connect POSITIVE (RED) charger clip to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) post of battery.
c) Position yourself and free end of cable as far away from battery as possible – then connect NEGATIVE
(BLACK) charger clip to free end of cable.
d) Do not face battery when making final connection.
e) Connect charger AC supply cord to electrical outlet and when disconnecting charger, always do so in
reverse sequence of connecting procedure and break first connection while standing as far away from
battery as practical.
17. For charging batteries within a vehicle using the permanent ring lead connector leads
a) Check to make sure that the permanent ring lead connectors are a suitable size to connect to the battery
screw clamp connections.
b) Connect the red ring lead to the positive (+) and the black ring lead to the negative (-) battery
connection. Ensure that the connection is not loose.
c) This battery lead can be permanently left in position on the battery and the end connector can be
positioned somewhere suitable that will allow for a quick and convenient connection to the Oximiser3X
when required. The leads provided are supplied with a weatherproof cap to ensure that the connections
do not become corroded.
Note: The advanced electronic programming of the Oximiser3X makes it impossible to create any sparks which
could otherwise ignite the gases of a battery. It is also impossible to cause a short circuit or sparks from the
battery clamps/crocodile clips as the unit returns to STANDBY if it is not connected to a battery.
How to Start the Charging Process
1. Read the digital display to ensure that the Oximiser3X has been connected correctly to the battery
connections. If a flashing battery symbol shows, it means that the positive and negative leads need to be
swapped over.
2. Select the correct charging rate for the battery by pressing the MODE button until the digital display shows
the desired setting. See the "Battery Types and Charge MODE selection Advice" section in this leaflet.
3. The sophisticated electronics software of the Oximiser3X will automatically test, charge and maintain the
battery so long as it is connected to the battery.
4. The digital display shows the voltage and also charge rate in Amps/hour. This is very informative. When the
Oximiser3X has been connected for some time and it has entered the MAINTAIN mode, it will be normal
that the DIGITAL display will read 0.00A when the battery is fully charged as the Oximiser3X will never
unnecessarily charge a battery. The voltage of the battery will still be shown even if there is no charge current
so as to inform the user of the condition of the battery.
Interruption of charging:
1. The charging process can be interrupted by either; switching off the mains power and then disconnecting the
leads or by pressing the MODE button enough times so that the unit returns to STANDBY.
2. If the connections to the battery and Oximiser are disconnected the unit always returns to the STANDBY
mode.
Quick Boost Charging
- Quick boost charging is for small batteries which are normally charged on the motorcycle
charge mode (1st charge mode)
- If the battery has gone flat and will not start the vehicle, it is perfectly acceptable to start charging using
the CAR mode. This will charge the battery at up to 3.6Amps and will therefore quickly boost the battery
