System set-up

Connecting to the power supply
DANGER
Risk of death by electric shock!
►
Connect the product only to a grounded power supply.
►
Carry out a visual inspection before connecting the product to the
mains power:
– Check the mains power cord for any damage.
– Check the charger for any damage (e.g. bent, short-circuited con-
tacts of the charging bays).
►
Do not use the product if it is damaged, defective or dirty.
►
Set aside the product if it is damaged.
►
Clean product if dirty, see Validated reprocessing procedure.
►
Plug the mains power cord into the device connector 7.
►
Plug in the mains plug at the mains power socket.
After being connected to the mains power, the charger performs a self-
test. During this time the "Power On" 3 indicator and the
indicator fields for charging bays 2 must be illuminated on the front
panel of the device.
►
Carry out a visual inspection of the "Power On" indicator 3 and the
indicator fields for charging bays 1.
The indicator fields for the charging bays 2 go out and only
the "Power On" 3 indicator remains lit.
The charger is ready.
Note
In case of any deviation from the sequence described above, see Trouble-
shooting list

Note
The Acculan 4 Charger GA320 does not have a power ON/OFF switch. The
all-pole disconnection of the product from the main power supply is only
guaranteed when the power cord/mains connection line is unplugged.
►
Unplug the power cord from the mains power socket.

Safe operation

WARNING
Risk of injury and material damage due to inappropriate use of bat-
teries!
►
Only insert batteries that are indicated in the Intended Use.
►
Insert batteries in their correct position.
WARNING
Risk of injury and material damage due to damaged batteries!
►
Check batteries for any damage before charging.
►
Do not use or recharge damaged batteries.
WARNING
Total battery failure can occur by leaving the batteries in the charger
while disconnected from the power supply!
►
Always leave charger connected to the power supply. Indicator
lamp for readiness must illuminate.
►
Always remove batteries from the charger when it is disconnected
from the power supply.
CAUTION
Loss of capacity/performance due to prolonged storage of discharged
batteries!
►
After a successfully completed charging process, leave the battery
in the operational charger (trickle charging).
►
As excessive battery temperatures will prolong the charging time, allow
batteries to cool down prior to charging.
►
To remove the battery, if necessary use a cloth as the batteries become
heated during the charging process.
Charge battery GA346, GA666 and GA676
►
Insert the battery into the charging bay with the contacts pointing
downwards, so that the marking on the battery 10 corresponds with
the marking on the charging bay 11, see Fig. A.
The "Charging progress indicator" is illuminated in green.
The charging process starts automatically.
Indicator fields for charging bays
"Charging progress" indicator
The "Charging progress" indicator is illuminated in
green as soon as a battery is inserted into the corre-
sponding charging bay. It indicates the charging status
of the battery. At full illumination, the charging process
is complete and the battery can be removed from the
charging bay.
"Action request" indicator
The "Action request" indicator is illuminated in orange
when a charging process cannot be properly carried out.
The "Charging progress" indicator extinguishes simulta-
neously.
Possible causes: bad contacts or excessive battery tem-
perature during charging, see Troubleshooting list.
"Battery replacement recommended" indicator
The "Battery change recommended" indicator is illumi-
nated in orange in addition to the "Charging progress"
indicator when the charging process is complete. The
corresponding battery has failed the automatic battery
check. This battery can nevertheless still be used. How-
ever, it must be taken into account that an intraopera-
tive battery change may be necessary due to the
reduced performance.
