OWNER’S MANUAL
Connections at a glance:
The Guest ChargePro Model 2612A is designed to be used as an on board charger
for lead acid batteries (flooded cell or AGM types) and gel cell batteries. We
recommend that you set up the charger near the battery you wish to charge, and
12V BATTERY
make connections in the following order: +
2612A
WARNINGS
THIS CHARGER SHOULD BE USED TO CHARGE ONLY 12VOLT DC LEAD ACID
OR GEL CELL TYPE BATTERY SYSTEMS. USE ON OTHER THAN A 12 VDC
SYSTEM CAN CAUSE THE BATTERY TO EXPLODE AND CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY.
Grounding Precautions
DANGER
3
Do not operate this charger with a two bladed adapter plug or extension cord. Doing so
can result in serious personal injury.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of shock, connect only to a properly grounded outlet.

When the red LED is on, it indicates that your battery is discharged
Red and the 2612A is recharging at the "BULK" rate (stage 1). This
charging rate is 6 Amps.
Green While the red LED is on, the voltage measured (with the charger on)
will be 11.8 to 14 Volts.
If the red LED stays on for more than 24 hours, refer to Problem 1 in
the troubleshooting section in this manual.
When both the green and the red LED’s are on, the 2612A is charging
Red at an "ABSORPTION" rate of between 1.5 and 5 Amps (stage 2). This
mode of charging gradually "tops off" your battery, and reduces
Green harmful sulfating. While both LED’s are on, the voltage measured
(with the charger on) should be approx. 14.0 to 14.5VDC.
If both LED’s stay on longer than 24 hours, refer to Problem 2 in the
troubleshooting section in this manual.
Red When the green LED is on, the 2612A is charging at a "FLOAT” or
“MAINTENANCE" rate of less than 1.5 Amps, (stage 3). Your battery is
now 90% charged and ready for use. This "float" charging current will
Green gradually decrease to as low as 0.1 Amps as the battery reaches
100% charge. It will now be kept at full charge without over-charging.
If the green LED stays on when your battery is known to be low, refer
to Problem 3 in the troubleshooting section in this manual.
