be sprayed or come into contact with the acid, rinse
the relative parts immediately under clean running
water. Continue to rinse the area until the physician
arrives.
- During the charge the battery produces explosive
gases, avoid the formation of flames and sparkes.
DO NOT SMOKE.
- Position the batteries to be charged in a well-
ventilated place.
- Protect the eyes. Always wear protective goggles
when using acid lead accumulators.
- Always wear suitable clothing. Never wear baggy
clothing or jewellery that can get caught up in
moving parts. During all operations, electrically
insulated protection clothing and non-slip boots
must be worn at all times. Persons with long hair
must tie it back and wear a hair net.

- Substitute the mains cable only with an original one.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
- Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries
which are not rechargeable.
- Make sure the available power supply voltage
corresponds to that shown on the battery charger
rating plate.
- To prevent damaging the vehicle electronics,
scrupulously respect the warnings given by the
producer of the vehicle or the batteries used.
- This battery charger has components such as
switches and relays which can cause arcs or sparks.
Therefore when using it in a garage or in a similar
place set the battery charger in a suitable case.
- Repair or maintenance of the inside of the battery
charger can be executed only by skilled technicians.
- WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER
SUPPLY CABLE FROM THE MAINS BEFORE
CARRYING OUT ANY SIMPLE MAINTENANCE
OPERATION ON THE BATTERY CHARGER.
- The battery charger is protected from indirect
contact by an earth wire as indicated for class I
equipment. Make sure the power outlet is protected
by an earth connection.
- In models without this element, connect plugs
of appropriate capacity, not below the fuse value
indicated on the rating plate.
- Class A device:
This battery charger complies with the requirements
of the technical standard for products to be used
in industrial environments and for professional
purposes. No compliance with the electromagnetic
compatibility in domestic use buildings is guaranteed
and those connected directly to a low voltage power
supply network that furnishes buildings designated to
domestic use.
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Battery charger indicated for charging WET, EFB, GEL,
AGM + (Ca) lead batteries and Li lithium batteries used by
motorised vehicles (petrol and diesel) and electric vehicles:
automobiles, motor vehicles, motorcycles, boats, etc. It is
possible to charge 12V and 24V batteries; there is also a
12V (no 24V) starter aid mode (for vehicles with petrol and
diesel engines only).
Rechargeable accumulators according to the output
voltage available: 12V / 6 cells; 24V / 12 cells.
3. INSTALLATION
3.1 BATTERY CHARGER POSITION
When running, position the battery charger in a stable
position and make sure the air flow through the openings
which guarantee required ventilation is not blocked.
3.2 CONNECTION TO THE MAINS
- The battery charger must only be connected to a power
supply system with neutral conductor connected to
earth.
- Check that the mains voltage is the same as the battery
charger voltage indicated on the rating plate.
- The power line must have a protection system, such as
fuses or circuit breakers, that can support the maximum
apparatus absorption.
- Use the relative power cable when connecting to the
mains.
- Any power cable extensions must be of suitable section
size, never lower than that of the supplied power cable.
- It is always compulsory to connect the device to the
grounding system, using the yellow-green wire in the
power cable identified with the label ( ), whilst the other
two wires must be connected to the phase and neutral
conductors on the mains power supply.
4. OPERATING DURING CHARGING
N.B.: Before charging, make sure the capacity (Ah)
of the battery to be charged is not lower than that
indicated on the battery charger rating plate (Cmin).
Follow the instructions scrupulously in the order given
