WARNING: DANGER!
Connect the mounting socket (Fig. A-1) to the starter's
12V or 24V power supply, checking the voltage
required for the vehicle to be started, and only after
being absolutely certain that the clamps have been
connected to the battery polarities correctly.
- Connect the mounting socket following the instructions
above.
- Turn the ignition switch or key of the vehicle or boat to
ON. Wait about one minute. Turn the vehicle ignition
switch or key to the start position for no more than 5÷6
seconds. If the vehicle or boat does not start, wait at
least 3 minutes before trying again.
Warning: Do not allow the black and red
clamps to come into contact with each other
or to touch a common conductor.
- Whilst the engine is running, disconnect the mounting
socket from the starter and the clamps from the vehicle
in the exact order seen below:
1. the mounting socket.
2. the black (negative) clamp.
3. the red (positive) clamp.
- Return the clamps to their housing on the starter.
It is highly recommended to recharge the starter as
soon as possible!
Using the starter as a 12 V power supply unit by
means of the cigar-lighter type socket (Fig. A-4).
WARNING! 12V OUTPUT ONLY!
In case of overload the re-settable safety
switch will trip. To restore operation, remove
the cause of overload and press the button shown
in Fig.A-6.
- Take the cover off the cigar-lighter type socket (Fig.
A-4).
- Insert the cigar-lighter plug of the device to be powered
into the socket (Fig. A-4).
Recharging using a 230V AC power supply
Important! To protect the battery and lengthen
its working life, charge it for 12 hours before
using it for the first time, then after every time
it is used and, in any case, at least every 3 months.
It is possible to recharge the unit using the 230V AC
power adapter supplied. We recommend keeping the
battery fully charged at all times. A low charge level could
shorten the life of the battery. Bear in mind that the time
needed to recharge the battery depends on the number
of times it has been used. It is possible to check whether
the battery level is low by pressing the red button (Fig.
A-5):
The voltmeter (Fig. A-3) will indicate the battery charge
level. The green area of the voltmeter indicates that the
battery is charged.
Recharging:
WARNING: Use the supplied power supply
adapter only and exclusively to charge the
starter.
1-
To start with, insert the power supply adaptor plug
(Fig. B-1) into a 230V AC socket.
Then insert the relative output plug (Fig. B-2) into the
charger socket (Fig. A-2).
2- Leave the starter to recharger for about 8 hours.
Press the red button to check the recharge level (Fig.
A-5).
The voltmeter (Fig. A-3) will indicate the battery
charge level.
N.B.:
The starter has a device for monitoring the charge
status of the batteries, therefore the power supply can
be connected for as long as desired; when charging is
complete it is reset automatically, depending on the
charge status of the batteries.
Pb
DISPOSING OF THE BATTERY
When the starter battery is completely run down it should
be taken to a re-cycling depot. In some countries this is
mandatory. Contact the local special refuse authority for
information on recycling.
WARNING: Do not burn the battery to dispose of it.
This could cause an explosion. Before disposing of the
battery, apply insulating tape to the bare terminals to
prevent shorting. Do not expose the battery to intense
heat or fire as this could cause an explosion.
