The battery need not be disconnected from the
vehicle electrical system during charging.
i
If the voltage of the 24 V battery is less than 17 V,
each of the two series-connected 12 V batteries must
be charged separately. Below 17 V, the BAT 690 only
detects a 12 V battery and charging would therefore
also only be performed for a 12 V battery.
1. Connect the BAT 690 to the mains voltage system
via the power supply cable.
2. Connect the red charging clip to the battery
positive terminal (+).
3. Connect the black charging clip to the battery
negative terminal (–).
4. Switch on the BAT 690 by way of the on/off switch
(fig. 1, item 1).
The red LED (fig. 1, item 7) lights up.
The battery voltage is displayed (for four seconds)
then the "Mode" menu appears.

For exhausted batteries, the BAT 690 initially
employs gentle charging. The charging current
level is governed by the battery capacity setting.

In the case of cyclical battery operation
(wheelchairs, sweepers,...), at least every 3rd
charging process should take the form of full
charging to maintain the battery capacity as long as
possible.
