All batteries have a limited service life that de-
pends on how the battery is maintained, among
other things. Below 10.5 V a vehicle battery (lead
battery) is regarded as exhaustively discharged
and may suff er irreversible damage if stored for
a long period. The charger is unable to charge
batteries that are damaged or defective (e.g. cell
short circuit).
The equipment must not be used for charging li-
thium iron phosphate rechargeable batteries (e.g.
LiFePO4) or other lithium rechargeable batteries.
The equipment is designed for mobile use only
and not for installation in caravans, mobile homes
or similar vehicles. Do not expose the charger to
rain or snow.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescri-
bed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a
case of misuse. The user / operator and not the
manufacturer will be liable for any damage or inju-
ries of any kind caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been de-
signed for use in commercial, trade or industrial
applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.

5. Operation
Before you connect the equipment to the power
supply make sure that the data on the specifi ca-
tions label are identical to the supply voltage.
Hazard! Do not charge any frozen batteries.
Please also refer to the instructions in the
owner's manuals for the car, radio, navigation
system, etc.
About automatic charging (STD, AGM, Winter
charging programs only)
The charger is a microprocessor controlled au-
tomatic charger, i.e. it is suitable in particular for
charging maintenance-free batteries and for the
long-term charging and maintenance-charging of
batteries which are not in constant use, e.g. for
classic cars, recreational vehicles, lawn tractors
and the like. The integrated microprocessor ena-
bles charging in several steps. The fi nal charging
step, maintenance charging, maintains the bat-
tery capacity at 95 – 100 % and therefore keeps
the battery fully charged at all times. The charging
operation does not need to be monitored. How-
ever, do not leave the battery unattended if you
charge it over an extended period of time, so that
you can disconnect it from the mains power sup-
ply in the event of a fault in the charger.
