Did you hold the Mode button in for 3 seconds?

I'm a little slow today. My response was about a Battery Tender®. But now I realize you were asking about a Genius battery maintainer. Different animal.

Battery Tender® is a trademark of Deltran.

Ditto, it may take longer than 3 seconds, the booklet doesn't say that you need to hold the button in for a bit to get it to co-operate.
