Translation of the original instructions
1. Connect the clamps : Red clamp to the battery's (+) and black clamp to the battery's (-).
2. Connect the charger to the mains on a 230 V socket. An indicator
switches on that matches the latest saved data.
3. Select the battery voltage (6, 12, 24 V) according to the recommendations
features on the battery or according to the battery coupling (series or parallel cf
p.44).
Risk of explosion or acid projections if the wrong voltage
is selected (24V for a 12V battery).
4. Select the battery capacity. The Batium automatically determines the char-
ging current.
5. The charge starts automatically. The display indicates the battery's state of charge. (indicators

Voltage regulation (duration : 2h).
Step 3 :
Charge ends (Floating charge).
In the event of a power cut, the BATIUM saves the state of charge (except in « SOS Recovery » mode),
and resumes the charge using the latest settings.
6. When the battery is charged, disconnect the power supply
7. Disconnect the clamps or the battery connectors.
FORCED CHARGE
If the battery is deeply discharged (very low voltage <2 V), the charge doesnt not start automatically. The charge

cannot be recovered (<0.5 V (± 0.3)).
« SOS RECOVERY » (BATIUM 15/12 AND 15/24)
When connecting the battery, the SOS Recovery indicator
scharge over a long period, with a start in sulfation.
The « SOS Recovery » mode uses a specific curve to repair the battery over a 24 to 48 hours cycle.
To activate this feature, follow these steps :
1. Disconnect the battery from the vehicle. (OVERVOLTAGE DANGER)
2. Connect the Batium to the battery.
3. Connect the Batium to the mains.
4. Choose the charging voltage.

PROTECTIONS
The Batiums are protected against short-circuits, polarity reversals and vehicle start (they maintain a constant charge
even when the vehicle is started). It has an anti-spark feature which prevents sparks whilst connecting the Gysflash to
the battery. The Batium will not deliver current if there is no battery detected (no voltage in the clamps).
