The fully automatic DC24 performs two tests to give you complete information on the state of a battery.
In a first test it measures six battery parameters (battery voltage, percentage of charge content,
cold cranking currents, DIN, EN, IEC, SAE) and in a second test it displays lowest battery voltage and
highest battery current at start of the engine.
Ease of use: Simply connect the tester to the poles of the battery, no controls are needed.

Conclusions from battery measurement
1. The measured cold cranking currents according to DIN, EN, IEC, SAE should not deviate more
than 20% from the values given on your battery sticker.
2. At engine start the maximum current must not exceed the cold cranking current on your label.
3. At engine start the minimum voltage must not drop more than 30% below no load voltage.
A 12V battery at its end of life may drop below 7V at engine start.
The DC24 may perform a reset and will start the first test all over again.
This is an indication that battery should be replaced.
