With reference to the Genaral safety rules, the efficiency of the battery must be devolved upon qualified
personnel. The Builder is not responsible for damages occurred to objects or persons if caused from negligence
of personnel that ignore the rules of the present Manual.
ATTENTION: The battery is supplie CHARGED an so able to supply important currents even if new.
Put NEVER in short circuit the battery poles + an -.
Furthermore, the safety rules calculates the following fun amental points :
• It’s forbidde remove the battery shell.
• It’s forbidde i hibit the safety rules that the builder i stalled o the battery.
• Duri g the clea i g of the battery it’s compulsory the i terruptio of all the e ergies
co ected to it.
• It’s compulsory the use of a battery charger properly stu ie for ENERGA batteries.
• The failure of the respect of the i structio s for use, the service effected from NOT
AUTHORIZED perso el , declares the warra ty NO MORE VALID.
Li-io batteries disposal
The batteries signed with the recycling symbol must be treated from a separate
collection of rubbish centre recognized from the recycling Agency.
The batteries must not be mixed togheter with domestic and industrial rubbish.
Use protective glasses in order to work with battery.
Not open or dismantle the battery.
Grant always a safety and strong installation. Handle with care during the transport.
Battery terminals are always under tension. Not place near metallic objects and not wear metallic
objects like clocks, bracelets etc..
Do not use free flames or other ignition sources. isk of Explosion and Fire.
In case of fire, it’s necessary to use a dust class D fire-extinguisher.
Do not use water or CO2 fire-extinguisher
EXPLOSION O FI E DANGE . Do not charge over 14,5 Volt. Evoid short circuits, use
insulating tools.
In normal conditions the contact with chemical compounds is impossibile. If the box of the
battery is damaged do not touch the exposed parts.
In case of contact with chemical compounds, rinse immediately with deep water.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1.
PRELIMINARY PROCEEDINGS
After the unpacking, check the battery in order to exclude possible mechanical damages. Don’t use the battery if
damaged. If you are not sure, pls. contact your supplier.
Verify the correct polarity of the whole plant that you will connect. The polarity is indicated on the connector of
the battery through the following symbols :
+
positive -
negative
3.2.
PLACE OF INSTALLATION
Set the battery far from possible heat sources. Pls. look at the specifications contained in the chapter
“ TECHNICAL DATA “ in order to find the allowed working temperature.
In case of installation on vehicles , the battery case must be suitably protected from water splashes , sunbeams
and errant objects. Block the battery in a safe way, using, if necessary , some spongy material in order to fill the
box.
3.3.
CONNECTION
Use the cables for the appropriate section power connection. We advice to connect before the first negative
pole and then the positive one.
IF NOT P ESENT, PUT A FUSE WITH AN APP OP IATE VALUE BETWEEN THE BATTE Y AND THE PLANT.
IT’S NOT ALLOWED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE SCREWS PRESENT ON BATTERY POLES WITH OTHER SCREWS OF
DIFFERENT LENGHT.
3.4.
BATTERY CHARGER
Like all the Litio technology batteries, ENE GA batteries must be charged with suitable battery chargers
properly tested in the max current and max tension of end-charge.
The battery charger must work in a “ CONSTANT CU ENT” regime that must not exceed the max allowed
recharge current ( look at the chapter TECHNICAL DATA max charge current ), until the reaching of the “end-
charge” tension ( look at the chapter TECHNICAL DATA max en -charge tension ) and go on with a “
CONSTANT CU ENT” regime until the natural zeroing of the supplied current.
Moreover, in order to gain a longer life for battery we advice to charge it with a current not over the capacity
declared from the battery ( for example on the model 13-5° the capacity is 5 A/h and so you need to charge it
with not more than 5 Ampere ).
4. MAINTENANCE
The only maintenance needed from battery is the visual control of the connections on poles that
haven’t to be slow or oxidized.
4.1.
MAINTENANCE e/o PRESERVATION
For vehicle stop period
over than 1 week
, being however a little absorption of current from junction box,
anti-theft device etc.. , you need to maintain the battery charged, using the appropriate maintainers ( look at the
chapter BATTERY CHARGERS ) because the
little
Litio batteries, damaged seriously themselves in case of
excessive discharge ( tension lower than 8 Volt ).
