Initial Operation; Program Select - VOLTCRAFT UCT 100-6 Bedienungsanleitung

9. INITIAL OPERATION

The charger must be used with an AC source of 100V to 240V.
Never use the charger with another voltage as this will destroy the charger and
invalidate the warranty/guarantee!
1. Connect the AC power cord to the power socket.
2. Plug the circular connectors into the appropriate round sockets in the charger, while taking care of
the correct polarity. Make sure the connectors do not come into contact.
3. Switch on the charger by pressing the power switch.
4. The charger emits a brief audio signal and the LCD is illuminated. The charger now displays the
main menu.

PROGRAM SELECT

Please read the following points before connecting/charging the battery:
• If you have not done so already, please read chapter 5 and 6 completely and
ensure that you have understood the information there.
• Do you know all of the information about your battery that you need to know?
Unknown or unlabelled batteries for which you do not know the necessary
values must not be connected/charged!
• Have you selected the correct charging program for the type of battery you are
using? Selecting the wrong settings will damage the charger and the battery
and present a risk of fire and explosion!
• Have you selected the appropriate charge current?
• Have you selected the correct voltage (e.g. for multiple-cell LiPo batteries)?
A dual-cell LiPo battery can, under certain circumstances, be connected in
parallel (3.7V) or in series (7.4V).
• Are all connector cables and plugs undamaged, do the plugs stay firmly in the
sockets? Worn-out plugs and damaged cables should be replaced.
• When connecting a battery to the charge, always connect the charging cable
to the charger first, then the battery to the charger/charging cable. When
disconnecting, do so in reverse order to the above. Failure to do so presents
the danger of a short circuit (e.g. from the two 4mm circular connectors on the
charging cable).
• Only charge one battery or battery pack at a time.
• If you wish to charge battery packs that you have manufactured yourself, the
cells must be identical in their construction (same type, same capacity, same
manufacturer). The cells must also be charged to the same level (LiPo batteries
can be balanced out using the balancer, this is, however, not possible with
other battery packs such as NiMH or NiCd).
