• The charger is designed for charging 12V or 24V lead-acid batteries.
Do not use the charger for any other purpose.
• Check the charger cables prior to use. Ensure that no cracks have
occurred in the cables or in the bend protection. A charger with damaged
cables must not be used. A damaged cable must be replaced.
• Never charge a damaged battery.
• Never charge a frozen battery.
• Never place the charger on top of the battery when charging.
• Always provide for proper ventilation during charging.
• Avoid covering the charger.
• A battery being charged could emit explosive gasses. Prevent sparks
close to the battery. When batteries are reaching the end of their lifecycle
internal sparks may occur.
• All batteries fail sooner or later. A battery that fails during charging
is normally taken care of by the chargers advanced control, but some
rare errors in the battery could still exist. Don’t leave any battery during
charging unattended for a longer period of time.
• Ensure that the cabling does not jam or comes into contact with hot
surfaces or sharp edges.
• Battery acid is corrosive. Rinse immediately with water if acid comes
into contact with skin or eyes, seek immediate medical advice.
• Always check that the charger has switched to STEP 7 before leaving
the charger unattended and connected for long periods. If the charger has
not switched to STEP 7 within 55 hours, this is an indication of an error.
Manually disconnect the charger.
• Batteries consume water during use and charging. For batteries
where water can be added, the water level should be checked regularly.
If the water level is low add distilled water.
• This appliance is not designed for use by young children or people
who cannot read or understand the manual unless they are under the
supervision of a responsible person to ensure that they can use the battery
charger safely. Store and use the battery charger out of the reach of
children, and ensure that children cannot play with the charger.
• Connection to the mains supply must be in accordance with the
national regulations for electrical installations.
• The charger must only be connected to an earthed socket outlet.
• The charger is designed for indoor use. Do not expose to rain or snow.

*) Back current drain is the current that drains the battery if the charger is not connected
to the mains. CTEK chargers has a very low back current.
**) The quality of the charging voltage and charging current is very important.
A high current ripple heats up the battery which has an aging effect on the positive
electrode. High voltage ripple could harm other equipment that is connected to the
battery. CTEK battery chargers produce very clean voltage and current with low ripple.
