Translation of the original instructions
Testing the battery
Before peforming a charge, it is possible to test the battery level. Connect the red clamp connector on «12V» or «24V»
depending on the voltage indicated on the battery. The display indicates the battery's state of health. It alternates
between the actual voltage and the state of charge percentage. A 6V battery is at a 100% capacity if its voltage is
superior to 6,4V. It is at 0% if its voltage is inferior to 5,9V. A 12V battery is at a 100% capacity if its voltage is superior
to 12.8V. It is at 0% if its voltage is inferior to 11.8V. A 24V battery is at a 100% capacity if its voltage is superior to
25.6V. It is at 0% if its voltage is inferior to 23.6V.
Charge
Once the charger is connected to the battery while following the recommended procedure (see chapter. connection
and disconnection), plug the red clamp's connector on the voltage : «12V» or «24V». Select the charge speed (p.4,
n°12) with respect to the battery capacity (see table below), choose the battery type (n°11) then briefly press the
START/STOP button (n°8). To stop the charge at any time, press the START/STOP button.
Risk of explosion or acid projections if the wrong voltage is selected (24V for a 12V battery).
By default the appliance is configured to charging level «3» and battery type: «Universal».

Three indicators show that the battery is charging :
- The charge LED (n°7).
- The display : It alternates between the battery voltage and the percentage of charge (an evolution of both values
should be noticed).
- The voltage and percentage LEDs (n°4 and 5). They remain on and alternate at the same time as the display.
The charge progression is shown in percentage (%).

Automatic restart (Can be used only when charging)
In the event of a power cut :
- During a normal charge, the DIAG-STARTIUM switches off. When it switches back on, it does not resume the
charge. It must be manually resumed.
- During a charge with the «Automatic restart» feature on, the DIAG- STARTIUM switches off. When it switches
backon, it automatically resumes the charge.
To use the «Automatic restart» mode :
- Connect the charger according to the instructions,
- Choose the charging speed and the battery type with respect to its characteristics,
- Then keep the START/STOP button pressed (> 5 seconds).
An indicator helps to check if the charge is indeed in «Automatic restart» mode :
- The voltage and percentage LEDs (n°4 and 5). They do not stay on but will blink.
In this mode, Press the (8) button to stop the charge.
A power supply cut will not stop the charge from resuming.
DIAG + function (12V only)
On a stationary vehicle the device supplies up to 60A to enable the operation and testing high-energy
consumers: engine fan, window regulator, electronic suspension, etc... By supplying a steady voltage.
This voltage can be adjusted from 12V to 15V by 0.1V steps with key 1.
