IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE AND WARNINGS
• The charger is designed to charge and maintain 12V conventional lead-acid
batteries only. (VRLA), AGM, CALCIUM, GEL & WET.
• Always refer to the battery manufacturers specifications and recommendations if you’re
unsure of your battery charging requirements. Eg. Such as removing or not removing
cell caps whilst charging, battery type, maximum charge rate etc..
• Explosive gases may escape from the battery during charging so please ensure the
battery is charged in a well ventilated area.
• This charger is designed for indoor use only and should never be exposed to water, rain,
snow, liquids etc.
• Do not attempt to use the charger if it has been dropped or damaged.
• Do not attempt to use the charger if the cables or plugs are damaged.
• If battery acid contacts your skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid
enters your eye, immediately flush the eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes
and seek medical attention. Someone should always be within range of your voice.
• Never attempt to charge a damaged battery, frozen battery or non rechargeable battery.
• Never place the charger on the battery or battery on the charger.
• When working with lead-acid batteries, remove personal metal items such as rings,
bracelets, necklaces, watches and make sure you don’t short circuit the battery
terminals with any type of metal tool or piece of jewellery as this will cause an explosion.
You can wrap your spanner with insulation tape to minimise the risk of a short circuit.
• NEVER smoke, use an open flame or create sparks near a battery or charger during
charging operation as this may cause an explosion and explosive gases.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Take it to a qualified and authorised person for repair.
• If using a generator, you must ensure you use a surge protector to protect the charger
from Voltage spikes.
• The charger must not be used or played with by infirm persons or children. Also keep it
away from any pets.
MAIN FEATURES

• Multi Stage:
1 - Qualification - Battery condition check
2 - Battery rejuvenation (recondition mode)
3 - Soft start charging
4 - Bulk charging
5 - Absorption charging
6 - Equalisation charging
7 - Battery analysis
8 - Float mode
9 - Long term maintenance pulse charge
• Automatic diagnosis and charge: On power up, the charger will automatically diagnose
the battery condition and determine if the rejuvenation mode (reconditioning) or charge
cycle is required.
• Patented battery rejuvenation technology: The charger has a unique and patented
rejuvenation feature which uses high Voltage equalising and peak pulse reconditioning
to repair sulphated batteries. This feature is fully automatic and depends on the internal
impedance of the battery. It also depends on whether the battery is still connected in
the vehicle.
• Can be left on 24/7 to ensure your battery is always maintained and fully charged:
The battery charger can be left unattended and left permanently connected all year
round. The intelligent charger will monitor the battery Voltage and will maintain it at
peak performance with a special pulse charge during long term maintenance.
• Short circuit and reverse polarity protection:
• Heavy-duty and corrosion-resistant output connectors:
• Crocodile clips: It comes with a quick connect fly lead and heavy duty, fully insulated
crocodile clip harness. If you require an optional ring terminal harness, please visit our
website www.kincrome.com.au or contact your local reseller.
• Rapid Charge Mode: Uses maximum charging current to ensure the fastest charge
time. You may hear the fan turn on during this mode.
• Silent Charge Mode: Charges at a slightly reduced charge rate so the cooling fan is
not required.
• Maintenance Mode: Ideal and recommended for long term maintenance charging or for
charging smaller batteries.

TEMPERATURE & SAFETY PROTECTION:
• INTERNAL OVERHEAT PROTECTION: The charger has a built-in overheat and an
overload electronic circuit. This protects the charger from being damaged if overheated or
overloaded and will automatically decrease the charging current. Once the units
internal temperature decreases to a safe level, the charger will resume normal charging.
•SAFETY TIMER PROTECTION: The charger has safety timers for every stage. If the
battery Voltage doesn’t reach a certain Voltage within a certain time, the unit will stop
charging as it’s highly likely that you’re attempting to charge a severely discharged or
heavily sulphated battery. If any of the stages time out, the charger will immediately
stop charging in order to protect the battery. This will be indicated with the fault LED
flashing slowly.
•REVERSE POLARITY: The charger has reverse polarity protection. If the charger output
leads are connected reverse polarity, the fault LED will come ON and the charger will be
disabled. Simply unplug the charger from AC power and then connect the output leads
to the correct polarity.
• SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION: The charger will automatically turn OFF if the output
leads are short circuited and the fault LED will come ON. This prevents the charger from
being damaged if the positive and negative crocodile clips or the optional ring terminals
accidently touch each other while the charger is turned ON.
•ECO MODE: This Kincrome Battery Charger has a built in ultra low power consumption
circuit. If AC power is connected and the battery is disconnected, after 10 seconds the
charger will automatically go into an ECO mode. During this mode the power drawn
is less than 0.36W which totals 0.01kWh per day power consumption. If AC power is
connected and the battery is connected, once the battery is fully charged and during the
long term maintenance stage, the total power consumption is around 0.03kWh per day.
Both the selected Charge rate and Battery type LED’s will flash GREEN to indicate
ECO mode.
