6.3. Connecting the charger to the battery
ATTENTION!
Risk of electric shock!
There is a risk of electric shock from live parts.
Before assembly and maintenance work and before
cleaning the device, always unplug it from the mains
power supply!
Always unplug the device before removing or at-
taching the connection clamps to the terminals on
the battery.
NOTE
Before disconnecting a car or motor bike battery, first consult the vehi-
cle's instruction manual on the potential consequences of disconnecting
the battery.
If the battery that you wish to charge is connected in the
vehicle, first disconnect the vehicle's negative terminal
connection cable (black) from the battery's negative ter-
minal before the charging or trickle charging process. The
battery's negative terminal is usually connected to the
vehicle's bodywork.
Then disconnect the vehicle's positive terminal connec-
tion cable (red) from the battery's positive terminal.
Then attach the charger's positive terminal clamp (red) to
the battery's positive terminal and then the negative terminal clamp (black) to
the battery's negative terminal.
Connect the battery charger's mains cable to a mains socket.
6.4. Select charging mode
Select a charging mode depending on the battery type and ambient temperature.
You can also recharge a completely discharged battery ("regeneration").
The charger's electronics do not start the charging process directly after connect-
ing the battery but only after a charging mode has been selected. This avoids sparks
that often occur during the connection process.
To select a charging mode, press the MODE button several times. The symbol of
the respective mode will be shown on the display.
