  • Pariksa clamps and cables regularly for any signs of damage. Do not use the device if the cables or clamps ruksak.

Pamérésan masalah

Alat Teu Dihurungkeun

  • Pastikeun clamps are correctly connected to the battery terminals (red to positive, black to negative).
  • Verify the battery has sufficient voltage (above 6V) for the device to power on.

App Not Connecting to Device

  • Pastikeun Bluetooth diaktipkeun dina smartphone Anjeun.
  • Ensure the BT500 device is powered on and within Bluetooth range of your phone.
  • Close and reopen the ANCEL BT500 app.
  • Balikan deui smartphone Anjeun.

Bacaan teu akurat

  • Pastikeun clamps have a clean and secure connection to the battery terminals. Remove any corrosion or dirt.
  • Verify that the correct battery type and testing standard are selected in the app.
  • For best accuracy, test a battery that has been at rest for at least 15 minutes after charging or use.
  • Remember that connecting the tester indirectly through boost terminals can lower the state of health readings. Always connect directly to the battery for accurate results.

"Replace Battery" Result

  • If the tester indicates "Replace battery," it suggests the battery's State of Health (SoH) is significantly degraded. Consider replacing the battery.
  • Note: Some deep-cycle marine batteries may recover after extended charging, even if initially reported as low. However, for standard automotive batteries, this usually indicates replacement is due.
