Installation and safety instructions

Battery charger BC1 has been designed to provide safety and reliable. It is necessary to observe the following precautions in order to avoid
damage to persons and to the battery charger:
Read the installation instructions contained in this Manual carefully. For further information put the Manual in a proper place.
•
Fix the battery charger to a stable surface through the appropriate holes inserted on the fixing flanges. In case of installation on a
•
vehicle it is advisable to use antivibration supports.
Preferably the charger should be installed in the vertical position with the fan facing up. The horizontal installation is allowed. Never
•
install in the vertical position with the fan facing down.
Ensure all ventilation ports are not obstructed, to avoid the overheating. Do not put the battery charger near heat sources. Make sure
•
that free space around the battery charger is sufficient to provide adequate ventilation and an easy access to cables sockets.
Protect the battery charger from ingress of water. Do not pour liquids and foreign objects inside the case.
•
Verify that the available supply voltage corresponds to the voltage that is stated on the battery charger name plate.
•
For safety and electromagnetic compatibility, the battery charger has a 3-prong plug as a safety feature, and it will only fit into an
•
earthed outlet. If you can not plug it in, chances are you have an older, non-earthed outlet; contact an electrician to have the outlet
replaced. Do not use an adapter to defeat the earthing.
To avoid damaging the power cord, do not put anything on it or place it where it will be walked on. If the cord becomes damaged or
•
frayed, replace it immediately.
If you are using an extension cord or power strip, make sure that the total of the amperes required by all the equipment on the
•
extension is less than the extension's rating.
Disconnect the mains supply before connecting or disconnecting the links to the battery.
•
To recharge Lead Acid batteries: WARNING: Explosive Gas – Avoid flames and sparks. The battery must be positioned in a correctly
•
cooled place.
Do not use to charge batteries installed on board of thermal engine cars.
•
Avoid recharging of non-rechargeable batteries.
•
Verify that the nominal voltage of the battery to be re-charged corresponds to the voltage stated on the battery charger name plate.
•
Verify that the selected charging curve is suitable for the type of battery to be re-charged. In case of doubt, consult Your retailer. ZIVAN
•
S.r.l. will not accept any responsibility in case of mistaken choice of the charging curve that may cause irreversible damage to the
battery.
In order to avoid voltage drop, thereby assuring 100% charge at the battery, the output cables must be as short as possible, and the
•
diameter must be adequate for the output current.
Do not try to service the battery charger yourself. Opening the cover may expose you to shocks or other hazards.
•
If the battery charger does not work correctly or if it has been damaged, unplugged it immediately from the supply socket and from the
•
battery socket and contact a retailer.
