cable to the bodywork at a point away from
the battery and the petrol pipe.
•
After the battery has been connected to the
charger, you can connect the charger to a
socket (see Technical Data). You can now
change the charging settings (see section
5.2.2).
•
Important! Charging may create dangerous
explosive gas and therefore you should avoid
spark formation and naked flames whilst the
battery is charging. There is a risk of ex-
plosion! It is essential that you ventilate the
rooms well.
•
When "FUL" appears in the LCD display (and
all increments Fig. 2/Item H), charging has
been completed. The charger holds the bat-
tery at 95% – 100% available battery capacity
using pulsed charging. If the charger shows
this after just a few minutes, this indicates that
the battery capacity is low. The battery needs
replacing.
Calculating the charging time (Fig. 3)
The charging time depends on the charge status
of the battery. If the battery is fully discharged,
the approximate charging time up to approx. 80%
charged can be calculated using the following
formula:
Battery capacity in Ah
Charging time/h =
Amp. (charging current)
•
The charging current should amount to at
least 1/10th of the rated capacity in amps and
should not exceed half of the rated capacity
in amps.
•
The charging times will be longer at low ambi-
ent temperatures.
5.5 Fault indicator in the display (Fig. 2/Item
K)
In the following cases the display will indicate an
error "Err":
•
If the terminal clamps are connected to the
battery terminals with the wrong polarity. The
protection against swapped poles ensures
that the battery and charger do not get da-
maged. Remove the charger from the battery
and start the charging process from the be-
ginning again. Caution! Protection against
swapped poles is not provided in the FORCE
and SUPPLY program.
•
If there is a short-circuit between the two ter-
minal clamps (the metal parts of the clamps
GB
come into contact with each other). The pro-
tection against short-circuits ensures that the
battery and charger do not get damaged.
5.6 Finishing charging the battery
•
Pull the plug out of the socket.
•
First disconnect the black charging cable
from the bodywork.
•
Then release the red charging cable from the
positive pole on the battery.
•
Important! In case of positive earthing, first
disconnect the red charging cable from the
bodywork and then the black charging cable
from the battery.
Important! If the mains plug is pulled out but the
charger cables are still connected to the battery,
the charger will draw off a small amount of elec-
tricity from the battery. We therefore recommend
that you always completely remove the charger
from the battery when not in use.
6. Overload cut-out
The charger has electronic protection against
overloading, short-circuits and swapped poles
when the 12 V STD, 12 V AGM, 12 V Winter, 12
and 12 V LFP charging programs are used. One
or more fi ne fuses are also fi tted. If the fuse suf-
fers a defect it must be replaced by a new fuse
with the same amp value. If necessary, please
contact our customer service center.
