You can connect it directly to the battery, but it is much easier using the cig lighter plug adaptor. What you call the "winter setting" (LED is marked with a snowflake) is for the AGM style battery (Optima and the like that require a special charge profile), what you want is the LED with the image of a car (conventional flooded cell batteries).
