NOCO Genius10 10A Battery Charger - Manuel (Page 5)

EN
Using 6V. [Press & Hold for 3 seconds]
6V charge mode is designed for 6-volt lead-acid batteries only, like Wet Cell, Gel Cell, Enhanced Flooded, Maintenance-Free and Calcium batteries. Press and hold for three (3) seconds
to enter 6V Charge Mode. Consult the battery manufacturer before using this mode.
Using 12V Lithium.
12V Lithium charge mode is designed for 12-volt lithium-ion batteries only, including lithium iron phosphate.
CAUTION. USE THIS MODE WITH EXTREME CARE. THIS MODE SHOULD ONLY BE USED WITH 12-VOLT LITHIUM BATTERIES THAT HAVE A BUILT-IN BATTERY MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM (BMS). LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES ARE MADE AND CONSTRUCTED IN DIFFERENT WAYS AND SOME MAY OR MAY NOT CONTAIN A BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
(BMS). CONSULT THE LITHIUM BATTERY MANUFACTURER BEFORE CHARGING AND ASK FOR RECOMMENDED CHARGING RATES AND VOLTAGES. SOME LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
MAY BE UNSTABLE AND UNSUITABLE FOR CHARGING.
Using 13.6V Supply. [Press and Hold 3 Seconds With Clamps Not Connected]
13.6V Supply converts the charger to a constant current, constant voltage DC power supply. It can be used to power 12VDC devices, tire inflators, seat heaters and more. As a power supply, it can
also be used to retain a vehicle’s on-board computer settings during battery repair or replacement. 13.6V Supply provides 13.6-volts at 10A with overload protection at 12A (Max).
CAUTION. USE THIS MODE WITH EXTREME CARE. SUPPLY MODE DISABLES SAFETY FEATURES AND LIVE POWER IS PRESENT AT THE CONNECTORS. DO NOT TOUCH CONNECTIONS
TOGETHER. RISK OF SPARKS, FIRE, EXPLOSION, PROPERTY DAMAGE, INJURY, AND DEATH.
Using 12V Repair. [From Standby Press and Hold 3 Seconds With Clamps Connected to the Battery]
12V Repair is an advanced battery recovery mode for repairing and storing, old, idle, damaged, stratified or sulfated batteries. Not all batteries can be recovered. Batteries tend to become damaged
if kept at a low charge and/or never given the opportunity to receive a full charge. The most common battery problems are battery sulfation and stratification. Both battery sulfation and stratification
will artificially raise the open circuit voltage of the battery, causing the battery to appear fully charged, while providing low capacity. Use 12V Repair in attempt to reverse these problems. For optimal
results, take the 12-volt battery through a full charge cycle, bringing the battery to full charge, before using this mode. The level of sulfation found in the battery will determine the voltage driven
into the battery (up to 16.5V). 12V Repair can take up to four (4) hours to complete the recovery process and will return to Standby when completed.
CAUTION. USE THIS MODE WITH CARE. THIS MODE IS FOR 12-VOLT LEAD-ACID BATTERIES ONLY. THIS MODE COULD RESULT IN HIGH CHARGING VOLTAGE AND MAY CAUSE SOME WATER
LOSS IN WET (FLOODED) CELL BATTERIES. BE ADVISED, SOME BATTERIES AND ELECTRONICS MAY BE SENSITIVE TO HIGH CHARGING VOLTAGES. TO MINIMIZE RISKS TO ELECTRONICS,
DISCONNECT THE BATTERY BEFORE USING THIS MODE.
Force Mode. [Press & Hold for 5 seconds]
Force mode allow the charger to manually begin charging when the connected battery’s voltage is too low to be detected. If battery voltage is too low for the charger to detect,
press and hold the mode button for 5 seconds to activate Force Mode, then select the appropriate mode. All available modes will flash. Once a charge mode is selected, the
Charge Mode LED and Charge LED will alternate between each other, indicating Force Mode is active. After five (5) minutes the charger will return to the normal charge operation
and low voltage detection will be reactivated.
