Replacing The Batteries - V2 ECO-LOGIC Manual Del Usuario

NOTIFICATIONS
The battery charge status is displayed by means of LEDs located
on the front of the box.
Checking must be performed with the gate resting.
The yellow LED flashes to indicate the batteries are charging; if
the LED is fixed, it means the charge current is very low, or there is
very little sun or the batteries are already fully charged.
The green LED flashes to indicate the batteries are charged.
The rate of flashing increases as the charge level decreases.
The red LED flashes when the batteries have lost their charge.
The red LED remains on if the charge level is dangerously low.
m
PLEASE NOTE: Never allow the battery to discharge
to the point where the red LED remains on, since this risks
irreparable damage to the battery.
RECHARGING THE BATTERIES FROM
THE MAINS SUPPLY
In the case of prolonged absence of charging from the sun,
the batteries may be recharged using the mains power
supply (accessory code 172802). This operation may also be
recommended prior to installation in order to be certain of
maximum battery life.
Disconnect both connectors and optionally remove the fixing bolt
and remove the module from the bracket.
Move the accumulator unit close to a power socket in a protected
environment.
m
PLEASE NOTE: The mains charger is not built to
operate outdoors.
Connect the power supply to the grey connector; insert the plug
into a power socket: the yellow LED starts to flash.
When the LED remains on, charging is complete and the unit may
be disconnected.
m
PLEASE NOTE: both before and after charging,
when the accumulator unit is inactive, do not connect
anything to the grey terminal; this way, the batteries
remain disconnected and there is no unnecessary power
consumption.

REPLACING THE BATTERIES

m
PLEASE NOTE: the batteries should only be replaced by
qualified technical staff
Replacement of the accumulators becomes necessary when
battery life is significantly reduced due to ageing.
In any case, it is recommended they should be replaced after five
years of use.
m
PLEASE NOTE: always replace both batteries with new
batteries of the same model (12 V – 18 Ah). NEVER mix new and
old batteries at the same time.
m
PLEASE NOTE: accumulators contain lead and other
pollutants; certain electronic components may contain pollutants:
do not dispose of them with normal waste, but use the methods
prescribed in local regulations.
To replace the batteries, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect both connectors
2. Open the casing by unscrewing the 4 screws under the handles
3. Disconnect the batteries by unscrewing the screws on the
terminals
4. Remove the old batteries and insert new ones in the same
positions
5. Reconnect the cables, ensuring the polarities are correct, and
tighten the screws properly
6. Close the casing and reconnect the grey and black connectors
