WARNING: BEFORE USING THE BATTERY CHARGER READ
THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL CAREFULLY.
1. GENERAL SAFETY RULES FOR THE USE
- Avoid contact with battery acid. Should an operator be
sprayed or come into contact with the acid, rinse the
relative parts immediately under clean running water.
Continue to rinse the area until the physician arrives.
- During the charge the battery produces explosive gases,
avoid the formation of flames and sparkes. DO NOT
SMOKE.
- Position the batteries to be charged in a well-ventilated
place.
- Protect the eyes. Always wear protective goggles when
using acid lead accumulators.
- Always wear suitable clothing. Never wear baggy
clothing or jewellery that can get caught up in moving
parts. During all operations, electrically insulated
protection clothing and non-slip boots must be worn
at all times. Persons with long hair must tie it back and
wear a hair net.
- Inexperience and untrained people should be properly
instructed before using the appliance.
- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8
years and above and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way
and understand the hazards involved.
- Children shall not play with the appliance.
- Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by
children without supervision.
- Use the battery charger only indoors and make sure that
you start it in airy places. DO NOT SET IN THE RAIN OR
SNOW.
- Disconnect the mains cable before connecting to or
disconnecting the charging cables from the battery.
- Do not connect or disconnect the clamps to or from the
battery with the battery charger operating.
- Never use the battery charger inside the car or in the
bonnet.
- Substitute the mains cable only with an original one.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
- Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries which
are not rechargeable.
- Make sure the available power supply voltage
corresponds to that shown on the battery charger rating
plate.
- To
prevent
damaging
scrupulously respect the warnings given by the
producer of the vehicle or the batteries used.
- This battery charger has components such as switches
the
vehicle
electronics,
and relays which can cause arcs or sparks. Therefore
when using it in a garage or in a similar place set the
battery charger in a suitable case.
- Repair or maintenance of the inside of the battery
charger can be executed only by skilled technicians.
- WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY
CABLE FROM THE MAINS BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY
SIMPLE MAINTENANCE OPERATION ON THE BATTERY
CHARGER.
- The battery charger is protected from indirect contact
by an earth wire as indicated for class I equipment.
Make sure the power outlet is protected by an earth
connection.
- In models without this element, connect plugs of
appropriate capacity, not below the fuse value indicated
on the rating plate.
- Class A device:
This battery charger complies with the requirements
of the technical standard for products to be used in
industrial environments and for professional purposes.
No compliance with the electromagnetic compatibility in
domestic use buildings is guaranteed and those connected
directly to a low voltage power supply network that
furnishes buildings designated to domestic use.
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Battery charger indicated for charging lead (WET, GEL, AGM,
PbCa) and Lithium batteries, used by motorised vehicles
(petrol and diesel) and electric vehicles: automobiles, motor
vehicles, motorcycles, boats, etc.
It is possible to recharge 12V and 24V batteries. Also indicated
for charging rechargeable accumulators based on the output
voltage available: 12V and 24V.
3. INSTALLATION
3.1 BATTERY CHARGER POSITION
When running, position the battery charger in a stable position
and make sure the air flow through the openings which
guarantee required ventilation is not blocked.
3.2 CONNECTION TO THE MAINS
- The battery charger must only be connected to a power
supply system with neutral conductor connected to earth.
- Check that the mains voltage is the same as the battery
charger voltage indicated on the rating plate.
- The power line must have a protection system, such as
fuses or circuit breakers, that can support the maximum
apparatus absorption.
- Use the relative power cable when connecting to the mains.
- Any power cable extensions must be of suitable section size,
never lower than that of the supplied power cable.
- It is always compulsory to connect the device to the
grounding system, using the yellow-green wire in the power
cable identified with the label ( ), whilst the other two wires
must be connected to the phase and neutral conductors on
the mains power supply.
4. OPERATING DURING CHARGING
N.B.: Before charging, make sure the capacity (Ah) of the
battery to be charged is not lower than that indicated
on the battery charger rating plate (Cmin). Follow the
instructions scrupulously in the order given below.
4.1 BATTERY PREPARATION
If the battery to be charged is the WET type, the procedure is
as follows:
- Remove the battery caps (if present), so that the gas
produced during charging can exit. Make sure the level of
electrolyte covers the battery plates; if they are not covered,
add distilled water until they are submerged by 5-10 mm.
