5. Observe test result LEDs.
GREEN LED - GOOD BATTERY
Indicates that battery is good and can be returned to service.
RED LED - BAD BATTERY
Indicates the battery is bad and replacement is required. Before replacing the battery,
check the following:
• Battery clamps make good contact on both sides of clamp during test. If not,
reconnect tester and retest.
• If the battery was connected to the vehicle during test, perform the following steps:
- Disconnect the battery from the vehicle.
- Clean battery posts or terminals.
- Reconnect tester and retest.
- If battery still reads bad, replacement is required.
BORDERLINE (BOTH LEDs ON)
If both Green and Red LEDs are on or flashing, the battery is on the borderline of
good/bad. The battery should be replaced soon. See Battery CCA Test below.
6. Release TEST (or COLD TEST) button when complete.
BATTERY CCA TEST
Relative Battery Condition:.Checking battery CCA.
• Turn CCA rotary switch to the lowest value.
• Press and hold the TEST button and turn the CCA switch until “X” (Red) LED comes on
and remains on. Note the switch position.
Refer to Table 1 for the CCA value of the battery under test.
NOTE: If the LED remains steady green at the upper limit of 950, the approximate
battery CCA is greater than 808 CCA. If the LED remains steady red at the lower
limit of 375, the approximate battery CCA is 319 or less. The tester cannot measure
CCA beyond these limits.
NOTE: A new battery, when fully charged and at 70°F (21°C), will have a CCA rating
that is greater than the CCA rating on the battery label.
