Translation of the original instructions
• Switch on the product by selecting "I"
• After one minute of charge adjust the charging current using the control knob.
• A normal charging current (duration 8 to 10h) is about 1/10 of the battery capacity (Ah). Beyond this value, the char-
ger provides a high current that should only be used for a short-term charge.
• The product can charge the battery in automatic mode (electrical control) or manual which requires supervision by the
user (the electronics of the vehicle are not protected). In automatic mode, the electronics of the vehicle are protected
supervision of the charge is not required. This is t he optimum charge (
Charge of several batteries simultaneously
Several batteries can be charged simultaneously by connecting them in parallel (the + terminals connected to the red
clamp and the – terminals connected to the black clamp). These batteries or grouped batteries must be of the same
voltage (12V or 24V). The charging current must be 10% of the sum of the capacities of the batteries.
Example : 1 x 55Ah battery + 1 x 100Ah battery need a charging current of : (55+100)/10 = 16.5 A
Charging in series is not recommended.
USE IN STARTING MODE (START)
Prior precautions
• Do not disconnect the battery from the vehicle. If the battery is disconnected it can lead to information being lost and
possible failure in starting the vehicle.
Connecting and disconnecting
• Switch off the product by selecting position "0".
• Connect the clamps: red to + terminal, black to – battery terminal. Select the correct voltage 12 or 24 V for the battery.
NEVER disconnect the battery from the vehicle
• Switch on the product by selecting "I"
• Proceed to pre-charge (if necessary) for a few minutes with a current of about 1/5th of the battery's capacity.
• Sit behind the steering wheel in order to activate the remote control switch and the ignition at the same time.
• A 5 second period is usually enough to start. Repeat the operation if needed.
• When the engine's motor starts, release the remote control switch and switch the device off - position « O ».
• Disconnect the clamps from the battery.
• In « Electronic Control » position, Gystart protects the on-board electronics and avoids overvoltage

PROTECTIONS
This machine has been designed with maximum of protection:
- The charge clamps are fully isolated
- Protected against polarity reversals short circuits.
A double fuse (Ref. 054547) ensures the protection.
Fuse replacement can be done manually.
- Protection against transformer overloads or start-attempts in the charge position is ensured by a circuit breaker on the
front panel of the machine. If it trips, manual reactivation is needed.
- Thermal protection : your machine is protected by a thermostat (cooling takes approx 1/4h). A red indicator illuminates
in case of overheating.
