Operation; Connecting The Charger - Eufab 16612 Bedienungsanleitung

Never cover the charger as this may lead to overheating which may damage the
unit. When using the unit, do not place it on an insulating surface such as
polystyrene, as this may lead to a build-up of heat.
When a battery is fixed in a vehicle, make sure the vehicle is out of action and
in a protected stationary state! Switch off the ignition and bring the vehicle to a
parked position, with the parking brake applied.
When disconnecting the mains cable from the socket, always take hold of the
cable by the mains plug.
Only take hold of the battery clips (positive and negative terminals) by the
insulated sleeves!
Do not place the charger close to fire, nor expose it to heat or continuous high
temperatures of over +40 °C.

6. Operation

Connecting the charger

Always connect the black negative cable (-) of the charger first. Then connect
the red positive cable (+). Finally plug the mains plug into the mains socket. The
battery charger automatically recognises the type of battery connected (6 V or
12 V battery).
If the battery clips are incorrectly attached (cross-poled), the corresponding
display lights up immediately (7).
Charging starts as soon as you have connected the battery charger to a battery.
If a 6 V battery is connected, there is only one charging mode.
If a 12 V battery is connected, the MODE button can be used to switch between
the programs motorbike, car and frost. At the start of the charging process, the
set maximum rate of charge will be shown for two seconds, then the actual rate
of charge will be shown continuously. In addition, you can also read off the
battery's charge level from the battery's bar graphic.
The unit adjusts the rate of charge according to the charge level of the battery in
order to achieve an optimum charge for the battery. The indicated maximum
rate of charge is only applied during the main charging phase. Shortly before full
charging capacity is reached, the rate of charge is reduced. In this way the
battery is charged in an optimum fashion gradually and up to its full capacity.
The battery symbol in the display shows the current charging level of the
battery, the blocked-in fields indicating the proportion already charged, the
empty fields the proportion remaining to be charged.
