- Lamp 4 (Yellow): Lights up when charging has progressed from save mode, or the battery is at least 50% charged.
- Lamp 5 (berdea): Lights up when the battery has reached full charge and is healthy.
- Lamp 6 (Red): Blinks if a fault is detected within the battery during save mode, or if the battery cannot hold sufficient charge during the final test, or if current draw from the vehicle is higher than the charger can deliver.
BMS (Bateria Kudeatzeko Sistema) Berrezarri
Lithium batteries with an advanced BMS may enter a protected sleep mode if deeply discharged. The Optimate Lithium charger can safely wake up these batteries.

6. Arazoak
L badaamp 6 (red) blinks, it indicates a potential issue:
- Faulty Battery: The charger detected a fault within the battery during the save mode. The battery may be permanently damaged.
- Unable to Hold Charge: The battery could not hold sufficient charge during the final test.
- High Current Draw: The current draw from the vehicle is higher than the charger can deliver. Disconnect the vehicle's electrical system or reduce parasitic drains.
If the issue persists, consult a professional or contact Tecmate customer support.
