Instr uction Manual CG-330/CG-335
Congratulations on your purchase of the all new Hitec CG-330/335peak charger. The CG-330/335 is a very versatile
charger, incorporating a unique glow igniter battery charging feature and a
Boosted Charging Method that charges up
to 24 cells(28.8 Volts) from a 12 Volt source.
The CG-330/335 has many safety features to protect both the charger and the battery you are charging. Since this is a
high voltage charger with large capacity, improper usage can result in damaging the unit or your batteries so
understanding its proper usage is a necessity. Do not attempt to charge any batteries until you have read and
understood the instructions.

FEATURES
1
. Initial Cut-off Error Override:
When the subject battery is entirely drained, the initial charging amperage is very high. The batteries chemical balance
becomes unstable and causes voltage fluctuation and sometimes the charger will read this as a delta peak and stops
charging (false peak). You may mistakenly think the battery is fully charged and start using the battery, that can lead to
fatal results. Always check for false peak at least 3 minutes after charge cycle has started. The CG-330/335 employs a
3 minute cutoff override when the start switch is first engaged. The amperage adjustment knob must be adjusted within
the first 3 minutes after the start button is pushed. If the battery false peaks simply restart the charge cycle by pushing
the start button. Note: The battery will rarely false peak twice in a row. If the charger shuts off twice in a row and the
battery is warm, IT IS CHARGED.
2
. Low Battery Input Voltage:
Most chargers cannot be used when the source battery falls below 11 Volts. The CG-330/335 can operate without error
even when the input battery drops to 9 Volts. If it goes below 9 Volts, the source battery must be recharged before
further usage. Failure to do so may result in the source battery being damaged.
3
. Input Battery Polarity Protection:
A common error is to switch the polarity of the input battery.
There is a circuit to protect the charger from damage if this occurs.
