6.2 USING THE ADAPTER CHARGING CABLE

The adapter charging cable with pole callipers (Position F in
the overview) is used if you wish to connect the charger in
the classic way to the poles of the battery. The adapter char-
ging cable with eyes (Position E in the overview) is designed
to remain fi rmly attached to a battery which is diffi cult to
access. The charger can be conveniently connected using
the adapter.

6.3 PREPARATION

Clean the battery poles to remove dust and corrosion
residue.
Only for open batteries: Remove the plugs of the battery
cells. Check the liquid level in the cells, consult the operating
instructions of your battery for more information. Replenish
only suffi cient distilled water to ensure that the minimum
fi lling level is achieved. The liquid will expand during the
charging process and the battery may overfl ow. Leave
the cells of the battery open until the end of the charging
process.
In the event of closed and maintenance-free batteries,
please follow the instructions of the battery manufacturer
to the letter.

6.4 CONNECTING THE BATTERY CHARGER

6.4.1 CONNECTING THE ADAPTER CHARGING CABLE

WITH POLE CALLIPERS

CAUTION
Make sure that the charger is not connected to
the power socket and that the adapter charging
cable is not connected to the battery charger.
Always connect the red plus cable (+) to the positive pole
of the battery fi rst. Subsequently, connect the black minus
cable (-) to the negative pole of the battery. If you charge
the battery in situ, connect the black negative cable (-) to
the car body (exposed part), far away from the battery, the
carburettor and fuel lines. Always maintain this sequence.
6.4.2 CONNECTING THE ADAPTER CHARGING CABLE

WITH EYES

CAUTION
Make sure that the charger is not connected to
the power socket and that the adapter charging
cable is not connected to the battery charger.
Attach the eye of the red plus cable to the plus connection
cable of your vehicle battery, e.g. the screws of the pole ter-
minal. Attach the eye of the black minus cable to the earth
connection cable (minus cable) of your battery. Lay the ca-
ble so that it is free from bends and tensions. It may not be
attached in the vicinity of hot or rotating parts of the motor.
The connection plug may not get wet.
