Charging - VOLTCRAFT eN5 Bedienungsanleitung

9. CHARGING

• Connect the banana plugs of the charging cable (7) to the two sockets (4) of the charger.
Always ensure correct polarity (red = plus/+ and black = minus/-).
• Then connect the rechargeable battery to be charged with the charging cable.
Caution, important!
Always connect the charging cable to the charger first. Only then connect the
rechargeable battery to the charging cable! At reverse order, the two balance plugs
can get into contact with each other and short-circuit the rechargeable battery;
there is a danger of explosion!
• Use the charging current slider to set the required charging current (1 A, 2 A, 4 A or 5 A).
Attention!
If the maximum permissible charging current for the rechargeable battery is
exceeded, there is a danger of destroying the rechargeable battery. There also is a
danger of fire and explosion! For more notes on the max. charging current, see the
data sheets of the rechargeable battery.
Please observe that the charging output is max. 50 W. A charging current of 5 A is only
reached up to a charging voltage of approx. 10 V. If a higher charging voltage is nee-
ded, the charging current will reduce automatically according to the maximum output.
Do not adjust the charging current slider during charging. This would interrupt charging.
In this case, the rechargeable battery must be disconnected from the charging cable
and connected again after a short break.
• Connect the mains cable to the mains socket (2) and plug the mains plug into a mains
socket.
• The LED display (5) first flashes green several times to display readiness for charging. If the
rechargeable battery is connected correctly, charging will start automatically and the LED will
briefly remain lit red. After completion of charging, the LED will be lit green.
• Disconnect the rechargeable battery from the charging cable after terminating charging. The
LED flashes green to signal readiness for charging. Now another rechargeable battery can
be connected to the charging cable and be charged.
• If you do not want to charge another rechargeable battery, pull the mains plug from the
mains socket.
