+Amazon listing claims "supports reverse charging the starter battery through the service battery".  A seller answer later says:
+> When the starter battery voltage is between 3 to 12V and the service battery voltage is >12.5V, press and hold the “Reverse Charging” for 3 seconds to initiate reverse charging. It’s recommended to exit reverse charging when the starter battery voltage >13V and charging current <10A, or when the service battery voltage <11V.

 These chargers appear to have a 3 hour absorption duration.  This is usually insufficient for lead chemistries, but still longer than the 2 hour duration of the DCC series above.  From the manual:
