USING THE CHARGER FOR THE FIRST TIME

Connect the charger to a 12 V lead-acid battery, or use the "kettle" lead supplied to connect
the unit to a mains socket. It is essential to maintain correct polarity.
Assuming that no battery is connected, the screen now displays "Power Peak® C8 EQ-BID
180W V1.0", followed by "NO BATTERY".

CONNECTING THE BATTERY

Important !!! Before you connect a battery to the charger it is essential to check the
set parameters. Incorrect settings can result in damage to the battery, which could even
explode or ignite. To avoid short-circuits between the banana plugs, always connect the
charge lead to the charger first, and only then to the battery. Reverse the procedure when
disconnecting the battery. Always maintain correct polarity!
Voltage sensor socket (Lithium battery):
The voltage sensor lead attached to the lithium battery must be connected to the approp-
riate socket on the charger, with the black wire at the end marked with an arrow; the arrow
indicates the Earth (negative) terminal. Always maintain correct polarity! If you wish to
make up your own battery connections or voltage sensor leads, you must take great care
to assemble them with correct polarity! When charging Lithium cells the voltage sensor lead
should always be plugged in - unless you are charging a single cell.
When configuring the BID chip or key it is important to check that the battery para-
meters are set correctly (risk of ruining the battery). If the battery is fitted with a
voltage sensor lead, for safety reasons this should always be plugged in.
