Battery charging
Connect the battery to the charger using Pole Clamp method [described above]. Connect
the Battery Charger to the mains power outlet and switch on to enter the Standby mode –
display light 6 illuminates. Only the battery voltage will be indicated in the LCD display 9
and the segments of the condition bar display 8 will be empty.
Note: If the voltage is below 3.8V [for 6 Volt series], 7.5V [12 Volt series] or above 15V, the
battery charger will remain in the Standby mode. The display will briefly shows the error
message "Err".
Commence battery charging
6V Batteries: If the voltage range of the battery is measured between 3.8V ~ 7.3V, only
program1 can be selected.
12V Batteries: If the voltage range is between 7.5V ~ 10.5V, the charger will perform a
controlled test for approximately 90 seconds to determine the battery condition. The LCD
display 7 & 9 will flash alternately indicating the battery voltage during the controlled test.
If the battery is deemed defective, the charger will remain in the Standby mode.
If the battery tests OK, the battery charger will commence charging in Program 2 [14.4V with
0.8A]. Charging starts with a pulse charge step for revitalizing. Once 10.5V are reached, the
appliance switches to the next charge steps. The charge display 7 flashes and the condition
bar display 8 will indicate the charge state.
Program selection
NOTES: Depending on the selected Program, the characteristic charge curve is monitored
for voltage, time and temperature. Included are the diagnostics testing, bulk charge mode
and maintenance mode [Refer to Figure C].
