Use the Up (▲) and Down (▼) arrow buttons to scroll through menu options. Press the ENTER button to select an option. Press the EXIT button to return to the previous menu or cancel an operation.

5.2. બેટરી ટેસ્ટ

This function assesses the overall health of the battery, including Cold Cranking Amps (CCA), State of Health (SOH), State of Charge (SOC), and voltage.

1. From the main menu, select "Battery Test" and press ENTER.
2. Select the battery type (e.g., Regular Flooded, AGM Flat Plate, GEL) using the Up/Down arrows and press ENTER.
3. Input the battery's rated CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) value, usually found on the battery label. Press ENTER.
4. The tester will perform the analysis and display the results, including CCA, SOH (State of Health), SOC (State of Charge), and voltage.
5. Interpret the results:
   • GOOD-RECHARGE: Battery is in good condition but needs recharging.
   • બદલો: બેટરી બદલવાની જરૂર છે.
   • BAD CELL-REPLACE: One or more cells are faulty; replace the battery.
