Micro 530 Battery Tester

The Micro 530 automotive battery tester is designed to help diagnose the cause of an inoperative battery. (Refer to ENGINE ELECTRICAL/BATTERY/STANDARD PROCEDURE/ MICRO 530 BATTERY TESTER  ) for instructions on the use of the Micro 530 battery tester  .

WARNING: If the battery shows signs of freezing, leaking or loose posts, do not test, assist-boost, or charge. The battery may arc internally and explode. Personal injury and/or vehicle damage may result.
WARNING: Explosive hydrogen gas forms in and around the battery. Do not smoke, use flame, or create sparks near the battery. Personal injury and/or vehicle damage may result.
WARNING: The battery contains sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and caustic. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes, or clothing. In the event of contact, flush with water and call a physician immediately. Keep out of the reach of children.

A battery that will not accept a charge is inoperative, and must be replaced. Further testing is not required. A fully-charged battery must be load tested to determine its cranking capacity. A battery that is fully-charged, but does not pass the load test, is inoperative and must be replaced  .

NOTE: Completely discharged batteries may take several hours to accept a charge. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURES  for the proper battery charging procedures.
