CHARGING PROCEDURE
Please note that the charger has maximum output power of 30 W.
The maximum charge current of 4A can therefore only be achieved
with smaller cells ( NiMH 4-5s or 2S Li... ).
With batteries with a greater number of cells the charge current
reduces accordingly, therefore the set charging current (3A, 4A)
cannot be reached and is lower as a result.
1. Connect the charger using the power cable included in the
scope of supply.
2. Select the correct charging cable depending on the type of
battery, and connect it to the charger. Ensure that the polarity is
correct when doing this! (RED/BLACK)
3. Connect this to a normal commercial 100-240 V socket.
4. Connect the battery to the charger
NiMH charging procedure:

Lithium charging procedure:
- Select battery type Li.... (Long press of button)
- Select charging current
- Connect battery (Important!! With lithium .. batteries always
also use the balancer connection)
- Charge status display: (Battery type "LPo"/"LFE"/"LiH"- charge
current display individual cells No1...No4 – charge status of
individual cell in percent)
5. The charging procedure now starts.
6. The charger has an automatic shut-off and a charge control
indicator for each output.
Status LEDs:
Red LED: Battery is charging
Blue LED: Battery is fully charged (charger switches to trickle
