Resolución de problemas

If the charger is not operating as expected, consider the following common issues and solutions:

• Sen alimentación/LED apagados: Ensure the charger is securely plugged into a live AC outlet. Test the outlet with another device to confirm it is functioning.
• Error LED (Red): This typically indicates a reverse polarity connection (positive and negative clamps are swapped) or a severely damaged battery. Disconnect the charger, correct the connections, and re-attempt. If the error persists, the battery may be beyond recovery or incompatible with the charger.
• A carga non avanza: Verify that the correct charging mode has been selected for your battery type and voltage. Ensure good contact between the clamps/eyelets and the battery terminals. For deeply discharged batteries, the charger may take longer to initiate charging or require the "12V REPAIR" mode.
• O cargador quéntase: It is normal for the charger to become warm during operation, especially during the bulk charging phase. This is part of its normal function.
