7. TAKING THE CHARGER INTO OPERATION
• The charger can now be connected.
• First of all you should plug the mains plug into the wall socket.
• The charger enters the 'STAND-BY'-condition after flashing a combination of LEDs.
Both LEDs (yellow and green) are lighting.
• Subsequently you can connect the battery and charging will start automatically. Only the
yellow LED is now lighting. At deep discharged batteries, first the battery is charged with
a small current (precharge). After that the battery is charged with the nominal current
(main charge). At last the battery is charged with a declining current (post charge). The
magnitude of these currents depends on the adjusted battery type.
• When the yellow LED is switched off and the green LED on, the battery is full and can
now be disconnected. If the battery is not disconnected then the battery is kept in
optimal full state by a very low current.
• When the battery is disconnected, it is allowed to let the mains plug in the wall socket.
The yellow and green LEDs will light.
