1. Introduction
This manual provides detailed instructions for the safe and effective operation of the ES 725 Battery/Starting/Charging Tester. The ES 725 is designed to test 6 and 12-volt batteries, as well as 12 and 24-volt charging systems. It performs a guided test sequence covering battery condition, cranking volts, and the overall charging system, including alternator voltage and AC ripple for bad diodes.
2. Consignes de sécurité
Always observe the following safety precautions when using the ES 725 Tester:
- Portez une protection oculaire appropriée (lunettes de sécurité) et des vêtements de protection.
- Ensure adequate ventilation when working with batteries, as they can produce explosive gases.
- Avoid sparks or open flames near batteries.
- Ne touchez pas les composants électriques sous tension.
- Keep the tester dry and clean. Do not expose it to rain or moisture.
- Refer to the vehicle manufacturer's service manual for specific safety procedures related to the vehicle's electrical system.

5. Installation
Before operating the ES 725 Tester, ensure it is properly set up:
- Source d'alimentation : The unit is battery-powered. Ensure a fresh 9-volt battery is installed in the designated compartment.
- Connectez les cordons de test : Fixez le cl rougeamp à la borne positive (+) de la batterie et à la borne noireamp raccordez le câble à la borne négative (-) de la batterie. Assurez-vous d'une connexion bien serrée.
- Affichage initial : The LCD will power on and display the initial menu.
6. Mode d'emploi
The ES 725 provides a guided test sequence. Follow the on-screen prompts.
6.1. Test de batterie
- Connect the tester to the battery terminals as described in the Setup section.
- Select "Battery Test" from the main menu using the navigation buttons.
- Saisissez la capacité de démarrage à froid de la batterie Amps (CCA) rating when prompted. This information is typically found on the battery label.
- The tester will automatically remove surface charge and perform the test.
- Results will display State of Health (SOH), State of Charge (SOC), and actual CCA capacity.
6.2. Cranking Volts Test
- Ensure the tester is connected to the battery.
- Select "Cranking Volts Test" from the menu.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to crank the engine for a short period (typically 5-10 seconds). Do not start the engine.
- Le testeur mesurera le voltage drop during cranking and display the results, indicating the starter's performance.
6.3. Test du système de charge
- With the tester connected, select "Charging System Test."
- Start the vehicle's engine and allow it to idle.
- The tester will measure the alternator's output voltage and check for AC ripple, which can indicate faulty diodes.
- Follow any additional on-screen prompts, such as increasing engine RPM, if requested by the tester.
- The results will indicate the health of the charging system.
7. Entretien
To ensure the longevity and accuracy of your ES 725 Tester:
- Nettoyage: Essuyez l'appareil avec un chiffon doux et sec. N'utilisez pas de nettoyants abrasifs ni de solvants.
- Stockage: Conservez le testeur dans un endroit frais et sec, à l'abri de la lumière directe du soleil et des températures extrêmes.
- Remplacement de la batterie : Replace the internal 9-volt battery when the low battery indicator appears on the display.
- Lead Inspection: Periodically inspect the test leads and clamps for damage. Replace if any wear or damage is observed.
8. Dépannage
| Problème | Cause possible | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Le testeur ne s'allume pas. | Pile 9V déchargée ou mal installée. | Remplacez la pile 9V ou assurez-vous qu'elle est correctement installée. |
| Résultats de tests inexacts. | Poor connection to battery terminals; incorrect CCA input; battery surface charge not removed. | Assurez-vous que clamps are clean and securely attached. Verify correct CCA input. The tester automatically removes surface charge, but ensure battery has rested for a few minutes if recently charged. |
| Message d'erreur affiché. | Vol batterietage too low; connection issue; internal fault. | Vérifiez le volume de la batterietage (if extremely low, tester may not function). Re-check connections. If problem persists, contact support. |
