Operation
connect the battery‘s negative terminal connec-
tion cable (black) from the negative battery ter-
minal. The negative battery terminal is typically
connected to the car body.
Then disconnect the vehicle‘s positive terminal
connection cable (red) from the positive battery
terminal.
Only then connect the battery charger‘s “+“
crocodile clamp (red)
7 to the “+“ battery
terminal.
Connect the “-“ crocodile clamp (black) 6 to
the “–“ battery terminal. Plug the car charger‘s
mains cable
9 into the mains socket.
Note: If the connector clamps are correctly connect-
ed, the display will show the voltage and “connect-
ed“ will light up. If the poles are reversed, the display
will read 0.0 and “connected“ will not light up.
Disconnecting
Disconnect the device from the mains.
Remove the “–“ crocodile clamp (black) 6 from
the “–“ battery terminal.
Remove the “+“ crocodile clamp (red) 7 from
the “+“ battery terminal.
Reconnect the vehicle‘s positive connection cable
to the positive battery terminal.
Reconnect the vehicle‘s negative connection cable
to the negative battery terminal.
Selecting the charging mode
You can charge a variety of batteries at different
ambient temperatures using different charging modes.
Compared to conventional car chargers, this device
features a special function for reusing a drained bat-
tery / rechargeable battery. You can recharge a
completely drained battery / rechargeable battery.
The safe charging process protects against faulty con-
nection and short-circuits. The integrated electronics
do not switch the car charger on immediately after
being connected, but only after selecting a charging
mode.
If the connector clamps connected to the battery
and the device is connected to power, the digital
display
10 will read “Connected“. After selecting a
charging mode, the display will read “Charging“.
Once charging is complete, the display will read
“Charged“.
A continuously lit display with the battery not yet fully
charged indicate a fault.
In this event, verify the connection clamps 6 ,
7 are correctly connected to the battery and
the correct battery type is selected. If the display
is still continuously lit, the battery may be de-
fective.
Digital Display button 1 : Use to switch be-
tween the digital display of voltage and charging
progress in percent (Battery %). Use this button to
switch between the following displays:
– Battery %: indicates the charging progress for
the connected battery in percent.
– Voltage: indicates the voltage of the connected
battery.
– Alternator %: output power in percent
battery Type button 2 : Use this button to set
the battery type to be charged. You can choose from
battery types. The battery type must absolutely be
correctly selected before starting the charging pro-
cess:
– 12 V Regular: these batteries (lead-acid batteries)
are typically used in cars, lorries and motorcycles.
They have vent caps and are often labelled
“low-maintenance“ or “maintenance-free“. This
battery type is designed to quickly transfer ener-
gy (e.g. starting an engine). “Regular“ batteries
should not be used for “Deep Cycle“ applica-
tions.
– 12 V Deep Cycle: These batteries are commonly
also labelled “Deep Cycle“ or “Marine“. This
type of battery is typically larger than other
battery types. It delivers less short-term energy
but transmit energy longer. These batteries with-
stand numerous discharge cycles.
– 12 V AGM / Gel: The AGM battery type is typi-
cally a good Deep Cycle battery. They provide
