Safety instructions

To protect you from electrical shocks, injury or burns
the following basic safety principles must be observed
when using electrical devices. Please read and follow these
instructions before using the device.
Installation
Ensure that the devices are positioned safely and cannot fall
down or over. Always position the cables to ensure they do
not pose a tripping hazard. Do not expose electrical devices to
rain. Do not operate electrical devices in damp or wet environ-
ments. Do not operate electrical devices close to flammable
liquids or gases.
Protection against electrical shocks
Only operate devices with undamaged casings and cables.
Ensure the cables are installed safely. Do not pull on the
cables.
The solar module generates power when light is cast on it.
The full voltage is also available even if there is little light. The
open circuit voltage may be twice as high. Do not touch any
live parts. Cover solar modules with e.g. cardboard, before
mounting and installing.
Use
This device has not been designed for use by people (includ-
ing children) who have restricted physical, sensory or mental
abilities or a lack of experience and/or knowledge, unless they
are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or have
received instructions from that person as to how the device is
to be used.
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with
the device.
Do not use electrical devices for purposes other than those
stated by the manufacturer. The ventilation slits in the housing
must be free and may not be covered by luggage, towels or
clothing etc.
Caution:
Batteries may generate explosive gases during charging and
operation. Keep away from flames and ignition sources. En-
sure there is sufficient ventilation in the battery chamber.
Repairs
Do not repair or modify the device. Please contact your dealer
or the Truma Service (see service manual or www.truma.com).
Accessories
Only use accessories and additional devices that are supplied
or recommended by the manufacturer.

Intended use

The solar automatic charger only serves to charge 12 V (24 V)
lead accumulators comprising 6 (12) single cells (e.g. car bat-
tery) with a capacity of 50 – 100 Ah (SDC 10) or 50 – 200 Ah
(SDC 20). The device was developed for connection to solar
modules. Only use suitable modules e.g. Truma SM 65, SM 100
or SM 150. Observe the maximum voltage and power draw
values. The preferred application fields for the automatic
charger are batteries with gel, AGM or liquid electrolyte.
The device is designed for installation inside.
