Operation
Before use
♦ Before connecting the charger, the operating
instructions must be observed.
♦ Furthermore, the instructions of the vehicle man-
ufacturer regarding a permanently connected
vehicle battery must be observed. Secure the
vehicle, switch off the ignition.

Connecting
♦ Before starting the charging or trickle charging
procedure on a permanently installed battery in
a vehicle, fi rst disconnect the negative terminal
connecting cable (black) of the vehicle from the
negative terminal of the battery. The negative
terminal of the battery is usually connected to
the vehicle’s coachwork.
♦ Connect the positive pole clamp (red) of the
charger to the positive pole of the battery.
♦ Connect the negative pole clamp (black) to the
negative pole of the battery.
♦ Connect the mains cable of the charger to
the mains socket.
♦ The battery voltage display shows the cur-
rent battery voltage.
♦ Should the connection of the clamps be
swapped, the LED „reverse connection“
lights up.
Disconnect
♦ Disconnect the appliance from the mains supply.
♦ Remove the negative pole clamp (black) from
the negative pole of the battery.
♦ Remove the positive pole clamp (red) from
the positive pole of the battery.
Measuring STANDBY /
Battery voltage
After connection to the grid, the appliance is on
STANDBY. The standby display lights up. When
the clamps are connected, the battery voltage is
shown in the LCD (voltage display ). The segments
of the condition display are empty.
If the voltage is below 3.8 V or above 15 V, the
battery will not be charged. The display briefl y
shows the error message „Err“.
The appliance goes on standby.
6 V battery:
If the voltage range of the battery is measured
as between 3.7–7.3 V, only program 1 can be
selected.
12 V batteries:
If a battery is recognised in the critical voltage
range of between 7.3–10.5 V, the appliance
checks whether a fully charged 6 V battery, or a
discharged 12 V battery is present. After pressing
the program selection button to select a program,
the appliance carries out a control measurement
for about 90 sec.
The display shows:
If after about 90 sec. between 7.3–7.5 V are
detected, the 12 V battery is defective.
The appliance goes on standby.
Revitalising
If after about 90 sec. between 7.5–10.5 V are
detected, a 12 V battery is present.
Charging starts with a pulse charge for revitalis-
ing. The voltage display fl ashes. Once 10.5 V
are reached, the appliance switches to the other
charge steps.
Revitalising is the same for all the 12 V charge
programmes.
