Lithium Outputs 1 And - GRAUPNER SJ MULTILADER 9E Instructions D'utilisation

gas-tight cells have proved excellent for modelling purposes. They are mechanically robust and can
be used in any attitude. However, they should never be charged at a rate higher than 1C. They should
never be discharged lower as 1.2V per cell.
Lead-Acid batteries with a capacity of 0.5-20Ah.The characteristics of lead-acid batteries are very
different from those of NiCd or NiMh packs. Lead-Acid batteries can only deliver low currents relative
to their capacity. They should not be charged at a rate higher than 1/10C.
The outstanding feature of Lithium batteries is their much higher capacity compared to other battery
types. However, this important advantage is offset by the need to adopt different handling strategies:
they must be charged and discharged using specific methods, otherwise they will be damaged, and
can be dangerous. The directions in these instructions must be observed at all times when handling
these batteries - see also point 11).
Operation Instruction for the OUTPUTS 3 - 9 (NiCd/NiMH only)
1. Please read right through these instructions before you use the charger for the first time.
2. Connect the charger to an easily accessible 110-240V AC mains socket near to the charger. The
power LED (RED) should now light up to indicate that charger is ready for use.
3. Connect the discharged battery pack to the charger using the matching charge port.
Please select the correct charge port according to the above table and take great care of the polarity.
4. When the red (orange) LED turns to green, or the calculated charge time has elapsed, this indicates
that the battery is fully charged.
5. Disconnect the battery (batteries) first and next switch off the charger and disconnect from the main
socket.
6. If you do not want to charge other batteries, turn off the charger and disconnect it from the power
supply.
Caution
1. Do not leave the battery running unsupervised.
2. Be sure to select the correct charge current and use the matching charge port.
3. The batteries must be disconnected first, before the charger is disconnected from the main socket.
4. If you connect the charger to the mains socket, but the power LED or charging LED does not light
up, the possible causes of the problem are as follows:
- No mains voltage present at the mains socket, or mains socket defective.
- Charger defective.
- Short-circuit at one of the charge outputs.
- Battery deep-discharged. In this case it is usually sufficient to leave the pack connected to the
charger for a few minutes until the voltage has risen slightly.
- Battery or individual cells defective.
5. Do not disassemble charger. This may result in electric shock.
6. Remove the batteries and unplug the charger when not in use.
OUTPUT 1 and 2 are only suitable for charging LiFePO
Lithium-Polymer and Lithium-Manganese batteries with a voltage of 3.7 V / cell. Do not connect other
types of batteries!

technical information.
The fundamental rule is that Lithium-based batteries may ONLY be charged using special chargers,
