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 first. 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.

6.5 CHARGING THE BATTERY

Connect the adapter charging cable to the battery charger.
Now connect the mains connection cable (Position 5 in
the overview) of the battery charger to the power socket.
Now, the green „OPERATION" control lamp (Position 2 in the
overview) lights up. The background illumination of the
display (Position 1 in the overview) is activated. In the
display, the battery voltage (Position 18 in the overview)
and the symbol for the operating display (Position 19 in the
overview) are shown.
CAUTION
If the red control lamp „ERROR" (Position 4 in
the overview) lights up, and the error message
„Er 1" flashes on the display, the charging cables
have been connected incorrectly. Remove the
pole callipers/eyes from the battery poles and
connect them correctly.

6.5.1 SELECTING THE CHARGING PROGRAMME

To start the charging process, press the selection switch
for the charging programme (Position 3 in the overview)
until the charging programme you want is set. If no charging
programme is set, the charging process will not start. The
most recently set charging programme is saved and can
simply be started by pressing the selection switch once the
next time you use the charger. The charging programmes
are switched in the following order (see also Figure 3 in the
overview):
1. 6 V mode
2. 6 V winter mode
3. 12 V motorbike mode
4. 12 V motorbike winter mode
5. 12 V car mode
6. 12 V car winter mode
After starting the charging process, the charging program-
me can no longer be modified. If you wish to use a program-
me that differs from the one set, pull the plug of the charger
and disconnect the battery from the charger (see section
6.6). Wait about 10 seconds until the display goes dark and
then proceed according to section 6.5.1 and set the correct
charging programme.
Depending on the charging state of the battery, the device
adapts the charging current in order to best charge the
connected battery. The specified maximum charging cur-
rent is only used during the main charging phase. Shortly
before the full charging capacity is achieved, the device
switches to a lower charging current. This ensures that the
battery is gently and optimally charged to full capacity.
The animated battery symbol (Position 17 in the overview)
as shown in the display indicates that the battery is being
charged.
