Safety notices / Operation
EXPLOSION HAZARD! Ensure
the positive terminal connection cable
does not come into contact with fuel
lines (e.g. petrol pipe)!
DANGER OF CHEMICAL BURNS! Protect
your eyes and skin against corrosion from acids
(sulphuric acid) when coming into contact with
the battery!
Use acid-proof goggles, clothing and gloves! If
eyes or skin has come into contact with sulphuric
acid, rinse the affected body region off with a
plenty of clean water and consult a doctor str aight
away!
Avoid electric short-circuits when connecting the
car charger to the battery. Only connect the neg-
ative terminal connection cable to the negative
battery terminal or the car body. Only connect
the positive terminal connection cable to the
positive battery terminal!
Before connecting to the mains, verify the mains
power has the required 230 V∼ 50 Hz, neutral
lead, a 16 A fuse and an ELCB switch (earth
leakage circuit breaker)! Ignoring this advice
may damage the device.
Do not place the charger close to fire, heat and
prolonged temperatures over 50 °C! The output
power of the car charger automatically drops
In higher temperatures.
Ensure no fuel lines, electric cables, hydraulic-,
water pipes are damaged by the screws whilst
assembling the charger! Otherwise there is a
risk of death or injuries!
Only use the car charger with the included orig-
inal parts!
Do not cover the car charger with objects! Ignor-
ing this advice may damage the device.
Protect the surfaces of the battery‘s electrical
contacts from short circuiting!
Only use the car charger for charging and main-
tenance charging undamaged 6 V- / 12 V lead-
acid batteries (with electrolyte solution or gel)!
Otherwise material damage could occur.
Do not use the car charger for charging or trickle
charging non-rechargeable batteries. Otherwise
material damage could occur.
D not use the car charger to charge or trickle
charge a damaged or frozen battery! Otherwise
material damage could occur.
Before connecting the charger, refer to the bat-
tery‘s original operating instructions for battery
maintenance information! Otherwise there is a
risk of injury and / or damaging the device.
Before connecting the charger to a battery per-
manently connected to a vehicle, refer to the
vehicle‘s operating instructions for information
about maintaining electrical safety and mainte-
nance! Otherwise there is a risk of injury and /
or property damage.
Also disconnect the car charger from the mains
when not in use for environmental reasons! Re-
member standby operation also consumes elec-
tricity.
Always be alert and always be careful what you
do. Always proceed with caution and do not
operate the car charger when unfocused or feel
unwell.
Operation
Remove the mains plug from the mains socket before
performing any work on the car charger.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
DANGER OF DAMAGE TO PROPERTY!
RISK OF INJURY!
Product properties
This device is designed to charge a variety of SLA
batteries (sealed lead-acid batteries) primarily used
in cars, motorcycles and some other vehicles. These
can be e.g. WET- (with liquid electrolyte), GEL- (with
gelified electrolyte) or AGM batteries (with electrolyte
absorbent glass mat). The special design of the device
(also referred to as “three-level charging strategy“)
allows the battery to be charged to nearly 100 % of
its capacity. The charger can further be connected
to the battery for extended periods to keep it in op-
timal condition.
Connecting
Before charging and trickle charging a battery
permanently connected to the vehicle, first dis-
