optima redtop, 75 blazer

I just got a new battery charger today and planing to charge my dads optima redtop battery for his 75 blazer. I can't find this information anywhere... I have the option to put the charger on 12v regular, 12v deep cell, and 12v agm/gel... Witch should I put it on?

Re: optima redtop, 75 blazer

it needs to be on a slow charge, a fast charge will ruin it. I had a new hire at autozone ruin one that way.
