5. Preparation
Always check the condition of the cables and clamps before using the
battery charger. Do not use when damage is noticed!
• Disconnect the battery from the vehicle before charging. To do this, first remove the negative pole
connection, and then proceed with the positive pole connection.
• When applicable (non-sealed battery), check the level of the battery acid. When necessary, add
distilled water.
• Clean the poles with a steel brush or sandpaper.
• Make sure the battery charger is not connected to the mains.
• Connect the positive clamp of the battery charger (red) with the positive pole (+) of the battery.
Make sure the clamp is secured tight.
• Connect the negative clamp of the battery charger (black) with the negative pole (-) of the
battery. Make sure the clamp is secured tight.
6. Operation
• The status of the charging process is indicated by 3 LEDs on the front of the unit. Refer to the
illustration on page 2 of this manual.
• When the battery charger is correctly connected to the battery, the red LED [A] lights up.
Otherwise, check the polarity of the connections and the fuse [D].
• When the battery has filler caps, unscrew them before charging.
• To start charging the battery, connect the battery charger to the mains. Make sure the correct
mains voltage is supplied (see technical specifications below).
• The red LED [A] will remain on during the entire charging procedure.
• The yellow LED [B] indicates that the battery charger is connected to the mains and the charging
procedure is ongoing.
• If the yellow LED [B] does not light up, check the condition of the mains socket and the mains.
• When the yellow LED [B] turns off during charging, the circuit was interrupted by the internal
transformer overload protection system. Disconnect the charger from the mains and allow it to cool
down/stabilize for about 10 minutes before re-connecting to the mains. If after several hours the
charger still doesn't indicate that the battery is being charged, a short-circuited element might be
present inside the battery. The battery must be replaced.
• The charging procedure is finished when the green LED [C] lights up. Note that the intensity of the
green LED [C] gradually builds up.
• The battery charger doesn't stop automatically. When the green LED [C] shines bright, disconnect
the charger from the mains.
• Disconnect the battery from the charger, starting with the clamp on the negative pole (black) and
than proceed with the clamp on the positive pole (red).
• When necessary, replace the fuse [D] in the front of the charger by a fuse with the same
specifications. Make sure no battery is connected to the charger and the charger is disconnected
from the mains when replacing the fuse. Use a small screwdriver as a lever to release the fuse from
its socket. Insert the new fuse. Avoid the use of excessive force!
