Please Read Carefully Before Using The Device
This system is intended to be used only with 6V & 12V Lead Acid Batteries, Gel, Maintenance Free, AGM
and 12.8V 4-cells LiFePO4. This charger is suitable to charge:
• 6 V batteries with a capacity of 1.2 - 26 Ah
• 12 V batteries with a capacity of 1.2 - 26 Ah
• 12.8V 4-cells LiFePO4 Lithium batteries with a capacity of 2 - 15 Ah
Preparing The Battery
It is recommended to disconnect the battery from the car if possible. This will avoid possible damage to
the alternator, your car´s electronic system and damage to the bodywork from possible spillage. If you
remove the battery from the vehicle, always remove the grounded terminal from the battery at first. To
avoid sparks, make sure all accessories of the vehicle are turned off. A marine (boat) battery must be
removed and charged on shore. (To charge on-board requires special devices designed for marine use).
Follow your battery manufacturer´s precautions and preparatory measures, such as removing or not
removing cell caps while charging. Make sure the charging rate is not over your battery manufacturer´s
suggestion.
For permanently sealed batteries, it is not necessary to carry out the following checks. Don´t try to
open a sealed or maintenance-free battery.
Firstly remove the caps from each cell and check that the level of the liquid is sufficient in each cell. If it
is below the recommended level, top up with de-ionized or distilled water.
ATTENTION: Under no circumstances should tap water be used. The cell caps should not
be replaced until charging is complete. This allows any gases formed during charging to
escape. It is inevitable that some minor escape of acid will occur during charging.
Connecting The Charging Cables
Connect the clamps to the battery in the following order:
OPERATION
1. Connect the positive charging lead (RED) to the positive
terminal post of the battery (marked +).
2. Connect the negative charging lead (BLACK) to the negative
post of the battery (marked -) or to the Chassis of the car. Please
do not connect to fuel lineso or carburettor which are not
supposed to be connected.
It is important to ensure that all connections are making good
contact with their respective terminal posts.
3. Now you can connect the charger to the mains supply and
start charging by selecting the proper charging mode as
explained below.
