information. Follow these instructions fully
to make sure no damage occurs to the
vehicle or it’s equipment.
• Do not cover the charger. Allow air
to circulate around the charger to prevent
over heating.
• The charger is equipped with a time-lag
fuse inside. Over-heating will trip the fuse to
prevent damage and will not reset until
sufficiently cooled.
• Do not use the charger within the vehicle.
Stand it on a level firm surface to prevent
damage to the charger or vehicle.
• Do not tamper with this product. Repairs
and maintenance must be carried out by an
authorised service agent. Do not modify
this product in any way.
• Wear approved safety goggles (not safety
glasses) and latex/nitrile gloves. Before
charging a maintenance type battery the
electrolyte (battery acid) must be filled to
the maximum marked levels. Never use tap
water. Distilled water or electrolyte
must be used.
• Never attempt to charge non-rechargeable
batteries. Only charge lead acid batteries
within the voltage and amp hour capacities
of the charger.
• Never attempt to charge a frozen battery.
• Never attempt to charge a damaged or
distorted battery.
• Keep out of the reach of children.
3. CHARGING MODES
JEFBATCHG15-1224 Dynamo 15A Battery
Charger - 12/24V, has seven modes: Standby,
12V/2A, 12V/4A, 12V/6A, 12V/8A, 12V/10A,
12V/15A, 24V/3.5A, 24V/7.5A, and 12V
BOOST. Confirm the appropriate charge mode
for your battery before using this charger.
Using 12V BOOST charge
BOOST Mode is the advanced mode that
require your full attention before selecting.
To operate BOOST, the charger must be
connected to a 12V lead-acid battery with
the battery clamps connected. For optimal
results, allow BOOST to complete the 5
minute charge. After the 300 second boost,
the digital display will show "000" and you are
ready to start your vehicle (whether FULL light
is illuminated or not). If unseccussful when
starting your vehicle, let the battery rest for 15
minute and try boost again. Most vehicles will
start with one boost. Do not use the BOOST
feature more than twice within a 24 hour
period. If two boosts cannot successfully start
your vehicle, replace your vehicle battery.

5. CONNECTING THE BATTERY
1. Identify polarity of battery posts. The positive battery terminal is
typically marked by these letters or symbol (POS,P,+). The negative
battery terminal is typically marked by these letters
or symbol (NEG,N,-).
2. Do not make any connections to the carburettor, fuel lines,
or thin metal parts.
3. Identify if you have a negative or positive grounded vehicle. This can
be done by identifying which battery post (NEG or POS) is
connected to the chassis.
4. For a negative grounded vehicle (most common): connect the RED
POSITIVE jumper clamp first to the positive battery terminal, then
connect the BLACK NEGATIVE jumper clamp to the vehicle chassis or
negative battery terminal (the vehicle chassis is the common choice).
5. For a positive grounded vehicle: connect the BLACK NEGATIVE jumper
clamp first to the negative battery terminal, then connect the
RED POSITIVE jumper clamp to the vehicle chassis or positive battery
terminal (the vehicle chassis is the common choice).
6. When disconnecting, disconnect in the reverse sequence, removing
the negative first (or positive first for positive ground systems).
NOTE: If battery clamps are incorrectly connected to battery
terminals, the INCORRECT POLARITY WARNING light
will illuminate. Reverse the orientation of the battery clamps.

6. CHARGING PROCESS
Step Explanation
1. Diagnosis Check if battery has connected with the charger and also check battery voltage
2. Desulphation If battery voltage is too low, programs automatically generate pulsing current to remove sul-
phate, up to 5 hours
3. Analyse Check if the battery voltage reaches to the threshold after desulphation, and charging begins
if the battery voltage is OK
4. Soft Start Charge with echelon constant current
5. Bulk Charge with constant maximum current until battery voltage is reached to the threshold
6. Absorption Provide gradually declining current charge for maximum battery voltage
7. Analyse Test if the battery can hold charge
8. Maintenance Continuously monitor the battery, and charging current will intelligently adapt to the variable
battery voltage

Different battery capacity and residual voltage would affect the charging time. Following data is only for reference (when discharge 12V lead-acid
battery to 9V, with 5A discharge current).
NOTE: After full charging cycle, use the battery to start the vehicles engine. If the engine does not start then the battery has depleted its storage
capacity and needs to be replaced. Consider hiring a professional to examine the vehicle itself for mechanical faults before
purchasing a replacement battery.
