SAFETY NOTES
- **** The warning triangle labels all instructions important to safety. Always follow these otherwise you could injure yourself or damage the device.
- Children must not play with the appliance.
- Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children unless they are supervised.
- Only connect the device to a correctly installed socket. The voltage must correspond to the specification on the type plate of the device.
- Do not trap the power cable and protect it from sharp edges, dampness, heat or oil. The power cable of the unit cannot be replaced. In the event that the cable is damaged, the unit must be disposed of.
- Do not operate the device or immediately pull the plug if it is damaged or you suspect it may be defective. In this case, contact our technicians.
- Pull the plug when the device is not in use. · Keep packaging materials, especially plastic and plastic bags, away from children. Risk of suffocation!
- Remove all plastic from the device before use.
- Lay the mains cable in such a way that you are not hindered by it, and no one is able to accidentally pull it.
- Disconnect the battery charger from the power supply after charging.
- **** Keep the charger in a place that cannot be accessed by children or unauthorised persons.
- Never operate the device in the vicinity of flammable materials or in an environment prone to explosion.
- **** Always wear suitable working clothes, protective gloves and goggles. Battery acid is corrosive! Immediately and thoroughly wash off any splashed acid and consult a doctor if necessary. If battery acid gets into the eyes, immediately rinse under running water for at least 10 minutes and consult a doctor.
- Do not cover the charger, this may lead to overheating and result in damage. Never set the charger up for operation on a surface that is insulating (e.g. polystyrene). There is a risk of heat build-up!
- If you wish to charge a vehicle battery in the installed state, first park the vehicle safely, put on the parking brake and switch off the ignition. Cut the battery (positive terminal) off from the onboard network of your vehicle. To do this, consult the manual for your vehicle, or ask your specialist workshop.
- **** For vehicles with a start/stop system, please observe the specifications in the vehicle manual regarding charging the battery and the connection points. In the event of further questions, contact the manufacturer of your vehicle.
- When pulling the mains cable out of the socket, only hold the plug.
- Never expose the charger to the vicinity of fire, heat and extensive temperatures over +40°C.
- Do not leave the charger connected for more than 5 days.
- Store these instructions carefully and, if necessary, pass them on to other users.

6.1 PREPARATION
Clean the battery pole of dust and corrosion residue. Only for open batteries:
Top up with distilled water until the minimum filling level is reached. Leave
the cells of the battery open until the end of the charging process. With
maintenance-free batteries, follow the instructions of the battery
manufacturer precisely.
6.2 CONNECTING THE BATTERY CHARGER
**CAUTION Make sure that the charger is not connected to the power
socket. Always first connect the red plus cable (+) of the charger to the plus
pole of the battery. Then connect the black minus cable (-) to the minus pole
of the battery. If you wish to charge the battery while it is installed,
connect the black minus cable (-) to the chassis, far away from the battery,
carburettor and fuel lines. Always stick to this sequence.
CAUTION** After plugging the mains cable in select the desired charging
pro- gramme by operating the MODE button multiple times. If the MODE button is
not pressed, the charging process is not started. When charging has started it
is no longer possible to switch to another charging program, If you wish to
work with a program other than the set charging program, pull the plug out of
the socket and wait until the display has gone dark. Then insert the plug
again and proceed as described above.
**** Now, connect the power plug of the charger to the main socket. The
background illumination of the display is activated.
If the battery has been connected incorrectly (wrong poles) or the charger has
no contact, the following error message appears on the display Er 1. If the
error message Er 2is shown, a defective 6 V battery has been connected, this
cannot be charged using the battery charger. If the battery has been correctly
connected, the display shows the current battery voltage and the symbol for
the set charging programme. By pressing (multiple times) the MODE button, you
can select the appropriate charging programme for your needs.
The charging programmes appear in the following order and may be selected by
pressing the MODE button:
- Motorbike 6 V
- Motorbike 12 V Car 12 V
- Motorbike 6 V winter
- Motorbike 12 V winter
- Car 12 V winter
At the beginning of the charging process, if necessary, e.g. in the case of sulphated batteries, an attempt is made to regenerate the connected battery with the help of short pulsating current surges. This revitalisation function is automatic and cannot be set directly. Depending on the charging state of the battery, the device adapts the charging current in order to best charge the connected battery. The specified maximum charging current is only used during the main charging phase. Shortly before the full charging capacity is achieved, the device switches to a lower charging current. This ensures that the battery is gently and optimally charged to full capacity. The battery symbol (7) (Figure 2: Display) shown on the display indicates the current filling level of the battery.
6.3 POSSIBLE CHARGING PROGRAMMES.
6 Volt mode
Charging programme for 6 V batteries, 1.2 Ah to 14 Ah, temperatures above 0°C

Battery maintenance charge mode
This function is automatic and cannot be set directly. As soon as the battery
is fully charged, the battery charger automatically switches to battery
trickle charge mode. This is shown accordingly in the display (Only when
removed). Never leave the charger connected for more than 5 days.|
6.4 ERROR MESSAGES
Display of error after faulty connection (wrong poles), short-circuit,
connecting a deeply discharged battery, selection of an incorrect charging
programme or overheating.|
---|---
Error message in 6 V mode, if a battery is connected with less than 5.5 V ±
0.2 or the voltage is still lower than 6 V after 4 hours of charging time. Can
also be displayed for 12 V batteries. The charger recognises the deeply
discharged 12 V battery as a 6 V|
6.5 REMOVING THE CHARGER
CAUTION First pull the plug out of the socket and observe the sequence
for disconnection. This prevents sparks from forming. Since charging generates
a detonating gas, this is particularly important for the sake of your safety.
Disconnect the charger from the main power supply. Then disconnect the black
callipers (minus). Then remove the battery callipers from the plus pole of the
battery (red callipers). Allow the battery to cool and fill the cells with
distilled water to the filling level named by the battery manufacturer. Close
the battery cells using the caps.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE MAINTENANCE
If used correctly, the device is maintenance-free.
CARE
Clean the pole callipers every time the charging procedure is completed.
Remove all splashed battery acid from the pole callipers to prevent corrosion.
Clean the device carefully with a dry cloth. Do not use liquids or chemical
cleaning agents. Never submerge the device in liquids. Never allow liquid to
flow over the device. Before storing the device, roll up the cables properly
using the designated hook in order to prevent damage to the cables and device.
Store the device in a clean and dry place.
NOTES REGARDING ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
The packaging comprises environmentally friendly materials that may be disposed of via your local recycling points. Do not put electrical devices into the household waste. Electronic and electrical devices must be collected separately and sent for environmentally friendly recycling.
