 11 ■ Safety instructions Danger! Avoid danger to life and limbs caused by improper use! ■ Do not operate the appliance with a damaged measuring cable. ■ The measurement cable must be placed so that they cannot be caught by rotating parts within the engine compartment. CAUTION! Damaged measurement cables create a life-threatening risk of electric shock. ■ Dispose of the device when the measurement cables have become damaged. The measurement cables are not intended to be repaired. Danger of explosion and fire! Make certain that explosive or combustible substances, such as petrol or solvent, cannot be ignited during use of the appliance! Ignition sources (e.g. open light, burning cigars, cigarettes or electric sparks) must be kept away from the starter batteries. Danger of chemical burns! Protect your eyes and skin against chemical burns caused by acid (sulphuric acid) upon contact with the battery! Do not look directly at the connected battery and use the following: acid-resistant safety glasses, clothing and gloves! If your eyes or skin come into contact with sulphuric acid, rinse the af- fected part of the body with plenty of clear running water and seek immediate medical assistance! ■ Avoid an electric short-circuit when connecting the appliance to the battery. Connect the red quick- connect terminal clamp only to the positive ter- minal (+) of the battery! Connect the black quick- connect terminal clamp only to the negative terminal (

) of the battery! ■ Touch only the insulated parts of the quick-connect terminal clamps !UAWSB 2 A1 ■ 12 

Attention! Avoid damage caused by improper use! ■ Only use the appliance with the included original parts! ■ Keep the electrical contacts of the battery free of dust and lubricants. Clean the contacts with a clean cloth as required. Connection ● First connect the red quick-connect terminal clamp to the positive pole (+) of the battery. ● Then connect the black quick-connect terminal clamp to the negative pole (

) of the battery. The appliance can be fastened to the vehicle chassis during the measurement using the magnetic strip on the back of the appliance. Testing a battery and generator Select operating mode ● Set the operating mode switch on the appliance side to 6 or 12 volts, depending on the type of battery you are testing. Battery test/start capability ● If only the “Charge very low” LED lights up, the charge level of the battery is weak. In this LED status, the electrical voltage in 6 volt mode is approximately

5.8 volts and in 12 volt mode approximately 11.5 volts.

The battery needs to be charged. ● If the “Half charged” LED also lights up, the battery is around 50% charged. In this LED status, the electrical voltage in 6 volt mode is approximately 6.1 volts and in 12 volt mode approximately 12 volts. We recommend charging the battery. ● If the “Fully charged” LED also lights up, the battery is fully charged and start capable. In this LED status, the electrical voltage in 6 volt mode is approximately

6.4 volts and in 12 volt mode approximately 12.6 volts.

Attention! Property damage! Before charging, learn about how to maintain the battery by reading its operating instructions!UAWSB 2 A1

 13 ■ Generator test ● Connect the appliance to the battery as described above under “Connection“. ● Start the engine and switch on all consumers (head- lights, radio, rear window heating, etc.). ● Increase the number of revs to around 2500 rpm for a short while. ● If the “Charging OK” to “Charging at MAXIMUM” LED lights up, the alternator/voltage regulator is working properly. In this LED status, the electrical voltage in 6 volt mode is approximately 6.7 or

7.3 volts and in 12 volt mode approximately 13.2

or 14.5 volts. ● If the “OVERLOAD/Faulty regulator” LED lights up, the alternator/voltage regulator is defective. In this LED status, the electrical voltage in 6 volt mode is approximately 7.8 volts and in 12 volt mode approximately 15.5 volts. In this case, contact your local garage. Cleaning Danger of electric shock! Always discon- nect the appliance from the battery before cleaning it. Under no circumstances may the appliance be immersed in water or held under running water during cleaning. Attention! Property damage! Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, as these can damage the upper surfaces. ■ Clean the outside of the appliance with a slightly damp cloth.UAWSB 2 A1 ■ 14
