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 damages. 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, fi rst park the vehicle safely, put on the parking brake and switch off the ignition. Cut the battery (positive terminal) off from the on-board network of your vehicle. To do this, consult the manual for your vehicle, or ask your specialist workshop.
  • Disconnect the battery from your vehicle‘s electrical system. Refer to the manual of your vehicle or ask your specialist workshop.
  • For vehicles with a start/stop system, please observe the specifi cations 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.

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.

  • Disconnect the battery from your vehicle‘s electrical system. Refer to the manual of your vehicle or ask your specialist workshop.
  • If you charge the battery while it is installed, there is a risk of damaging the vehicle electronics or the battery charger. battery charger could be damaged.

CONNECTING THE BATTERY CHARGER

  • CAUTION
    Make sure that the charger is not connected to the power socket. Always fi rst 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 bat-tery. 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 inselect the desired charging programme 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 mains 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 2˝is 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 pro-gramme for your needs.

  • The charging programmes appear in the following order and may be selected by pressing the MODE button:

    • Motorbike 6 V Motorbike 6 V winter
    • Motorbike 12 V Motorbike 12 V winter
    • Car 12 V Car 12 V winter
  • At the beginning of the charging process, if necessary, e.g. in the case of Sulphate batteries, an attempt is made to regenerate the connected battery with the help of short pulsating current surges. This revitalization 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.

ERROR MESSAGES

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 mains 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 fi ll 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 damages to the cables and device. Store the device in a clean and dry place.

NOTES REGARDING ENVIRONMENTAL  PROTECTION

  • The packaging is made up of environmentally friendly materials which 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. Contact your community or town administration for information regarding the disposal of electrics.
