compartment.
To avoid creating sparks, make sure that the clamps cannot
get detached from the battery terminals when the battery is
being charged.
Never let the cable clamps touch each other.
It is strictly forbidden to reverse polarity when you connect
the clamps to the battery.
Make sure that the plug is unplugged from the
socket before connecting or disconnecting the
cable clamps.
Provide adequate ventilation during charging
Always wear safety goggles closed at the sides, acid-proof
safety gloves, and acid-proof clothing
Never use the battery charger with damaged cables or
whenever the charger has been subjected to impact or
damaged.
Never dismantle the battery charger: take it to an authorized
service centre.
Supply cable must be replaced by qualified people.
Never position the battery charger on flammable surfaces.
Never place the battery charger and its cables in the water
or on wet surfaces.
Position the battery charger with adequate ventilation; never
cover it with other objects or close it inside containers or
closed shelves.
Connection of battery charger
Before starting the battery charger, make sure that the
battery voltage selected is the right one. Incorrect battery
voltage can damage objects and injure people.
To protect the electronic components on the vehicle,
carefully read the instructions by the car manufacturer
and the battery manufacturer before charging a battery
or using the Quick start procedure.
¾ Connect red charging clamp to positive (+) battery terminal and
black charging clamp (-) to negative battery terminal.
¾ If the battery is installed on a motor vehicle, first connect
the clamp to the battery terminal that is not connected to
the bodywork. Afterwards, connect the second clamp to the
bodywork at a point far from both the battery and the petrol
pipes.
¾ Plug the plug into the socket to begin charging.
¾ To break off charging disconnect first the mains supply,
then remove charging clamp from car body or negative
terminal (-) and charging clamp from positive terminal (+)
Charging a battery
The battery charger is equipped with a charge stop and
automatic restore. It can be left connected to the battery for
long periods of time without the risk of damaging it.
L
The charging current absorbed by a battery recharging
depends on the state of the battery itself. For models
with charge settings, select the charging current
nearest to 10% of the capacity of the battery for
charging. (ex. I=4 Amps. for a battery of 40 Amp/h.).
Make sure that the battery capacity (Ah) is not less than
that indicated on the battery charger (C-Min)
950500-09 10/09/14
¾ The green led [A] indicates whether the battery charger is
powered by the mains: led on, correct power.
L
If the overload cutout is tripped the light will go out
¾ The red led [B] indicates that the battery charger is in
connection with poles inverted (+ -). Correct the connection
to start charging.
¾ The yellow led [C]indicates that battery voltage is under
the optimal level and therefore the battery charger has
started charging.
¾ The green led [D] indicates that charging is complete and
that the battery charger is checking voltage.
L
The battery charger is electronic and sparks are not
generated when the clamps are rubbed together. This
method cannot be used to check equipment operations.
Safety fuse that protects against short circuits and
reverse polarity.**
This fuse interrupts the electric circuit every time there is
surcharge caused by a short circuit at the clamps or the
battery cells, or by reverse polarity at the battery terminals (+;
-).
Always make sure that the polarity is correct so as not to
injure people or damage things.
Disconnect the battery charger from the mains before
replacing fuses.
L
The appliance is equipped with a thermostatic cut-out with
automatic reset which is tripped in case of thermal overload
to protect the device against any overheating.
** These functions may not be included in some models.
