Solution
Ensure that the input voltage is
between 185Vac and 265Vac,
and that the frequency matches
the setting.
Set the charging current at
between 0.1 and 0.2x battery
capacity.
Check the battery terminals.
Adjust the absorption voltage to
the correct value.
Adjust the float voltage to the
correct value.
Inverter is damaged.
Adjust the absorption voltage to
the correct value.
Adjust the float voltage to the
correct value.
Replace the battery.
Reduce the charging current or
use a battery with a higher
capacity.
Connect a temperature sensor.
- Allow battery to cool down
- Place battery in a cool
environment
- Check for shorted cells
Unplug battery temperature
sensor from the Multi.
Reset the Multi by switching it off,
then wait for 4 seconds and
switch it on again.
If the Multi now charges normally,
the battery temperature sensor is
faulty and needs to be replaced.
