2. Informazioni sulla sicurezza

• Protezione da inversione di polarità: The BT60 features built-in reverse polarity protection. If the clamps are connected incorrectly (red to negative, black to positive), the device will not operate, preventing damage to both the tester and the battery.
• Connessione corretta: Collega sempre il rosso clamp alla batteria terminale positivo (+) e il nero clamp alla batteria terminale negativo (-).
• Nessuna alimentazione esterna: The device is powered directly by the battery under test. No external power adapters or batteries are required, ensuring safe, passive testing without discharging the battery.
• Ventilazione: Assicurare una ventilazione adeguata quando si lavora con batterie al piombo, poiché possono produrre gas esplosivi.
• Protezione degli occhi: Quando si lavora con le batterie, indossare sempre protezioni per gli occhi adeguate.
• Mantieni la calma: Keep hands, hair, and clothing clear of moving engine parts.

7. Istruzioni per l'uso

The BT60 offers several testing modes to diagnose your battery and vehicle's electrical system.

7.1 Test della batteria

This test assesses the overall health and charge of the battery.

1. From the Main Menu, select the appropriate vehicle type (Motorcycle, Car, or Truck) and press "OK".
2. Select the battery type (e.g., Regular Flooded, AGM Flat Plate, Lithium) and press "OK".
3. Select the testing standard (e.g., CCA, EN, DIN) and press "OK".
4. Enter the battery's rated CCA value (or other standard rating) as indicated on the battery label and press "OK".
5. Il tester eseguirà l'analisi e visualizzerà i risultati, tra cui lo stato di salute (SOH), lo stato di carica (SOC), il volumetage, e resistenza interna.
6. The display will also provide a suggestion (e.g., "Good Battery", "Charge-Retest", "Bad Cell or Replace").
