TOOL AND BATTERY WARRANTY POLICY
This TSB supersedes TSB 14-EE-002 to include additional information in the “Important
section”and “Service Procedure section”.
Description: This bulletin describes operation of the GR8 for battery related repair work. The GR8 is
a state of the art tool that checks battery health and then performs a reliable intelligent safe charge,
which can quickly restore some batteries to good condition. For example, a battery may be fully
revived within 1.5 hours if it has not been in a discharged state for an extended period of time.
Hyundai Factory Installed and Replacement Battery Information can be found at:
Hyundai Flash Drive - P/N Reference Materials
GR8 Battery Test clamps or Charger clamps must be connected directly onto the
battery posts. Do not connect to the jumper terminals in the engine compartment.
The correct battery type selection, either “Flooded” or “AGM”, must be selected
during GR8 Battery Testing and Charging to ensure correct results.
Charging with an incorrect battery type selection may damage and shorten the life
of the battery.
Always check the battery specification label affixed on top of the battery before
working on the battery and be sure to select the appropriate battery type.
Always enter the “SAE CCA” and RC value printed on the battery specification label
for the GR8 battery CCA and RC rating.
The replacement battery must be the same type of battery originally installed from
the factory.

SUBJECT:
Basic Operation and Battery Warranty Policy using the GR8:
1. Perform a quick test in the Battery Test mode. If the Battery Test mode provides a “Replace
Battery” result, the battery can be replaced without further steps.
2. If the Battery Test Mode produces a “Charge and Retest” result, you are then required to
conduct a Diagnostic Charge that will determine whether the battery is able to be brought to a
“Good Battery” condition by a full GR8 charge. If the initial diagnostic charge test finds that the
charge will not revive the battery, it will usually indicate “Replace Battery” within 20 minutes on
average.
3. Should the battery pass the “Diagnostic Charge” test, it will continue charging until the battery
reaches a full charge condition (which can take up to 1.5 hours) and indicate “Good Battery” by
automatically printing out a printout when completed successfully.
4. The GR8 produces printouts of the results in both the Battery Test and Diagnostic Charge
modes. Both printouts must be attached to the warranty repair order with proper VIN and RO
numbers entered via the GR8’s keyboard.
Flooded Battery
AGM Battery
A “Diagnostic Charge” must be performed if the battery test resulted in
“Charge & Retest”.

base may be disconnected and wireless communication exists to the Charger unit. The cable should
be reconnected when docked on the charger.
Either the small battery tester clamps or large charger clamps can be
connected to a battery at a time.
NOTICE
