grounded connection from the battery first.
Also, ensure that all other consumers in the
vehicle are turned off.
J
Ensure sufficient ventilation to allow the
distribution of poisonous vapours or gases.
J
Ensure that the battery poles are clean. If
the battery has a removable ventilation cap,
fill up every battery cell with distilled water
up to the level recommended by the manu-
facturer. Do not overfill the cells.
J
If the battery has no caps, refer to the
manufacturers recommendations regarding
charging and charging speed.
Connecting the battery

Battery recognition
The charger now starts to determine the voltage
of the battery. This process may take a few min-
utes. Display during the process shows according
image (see Illustration C).
After the battery size was determined, the display
shows the voltage of the connected battery, 6 V,
12 V, 24 V (see Illustration D). The charging
display shows the charging in process.
charging process
After confirmation of the battery voltage, the
charger starts to charge the battery. The display
HaZarD oF
shows „CH" for several seconds (see Illustration E).
The charger then shows the percentage of
charge (see Illustration E).
Slow charge
When the battery is charged to 90 %, the charg-
er switches to SLOW CHARGE mode with a lower
voltage to fill up the remaining capacity of the
battery.
This is displayed on the operating panel with „SL"
together with the charging status bar lighting
up to the top and bottom (see Illustration F).
Security / Operation

with N or -).
Ensure that both charging or pole clamps
have good contact with the corresponding
connecting poles.
Connect the power plug
quate alternative current socket.
Starting the charging process
C onnect the clamps to the battery with the
correct polarity.
