SETUP
Automatic charging (STD, AGM, Winter charging programs only)
The battery charger is a microprocessor controlled automatic charger, it is suitable
in particular for charging maintenance-free batteries and for the long-term
charging and maintenance charging of batteries which are not in constant use,
e.g. for classic cars, recreational vehicles, lawn tractors and alike. The integrated
microprocessor enables charging in several steps. The final charging step,
maintenance charging, maintains the battery capacity at 95–100% and therefore
keeps the battery fully charged at all times. The charging operation does not need
to be monitored. However, do not leave the battery unattended if you charge it
over an extended period of time, so that you can disconnect it from the mains
power supply in the event of a fault in the charger.
The battery charger is designed for mobile use only and not for installation in
caravans, mobile homes or similar vehicles. The battery charger cannot be used as
a buffer power supply, e.g. while changing a battery. Do not expose the charger to
rain or snow.
If the 12V starter battery is weak, the jump start process can be assisted by the
jump start function. The jump start function cannot be used if the starter battery
is discharged (indicated by Lo) or faulty (indicated by “BAt”) or there is no starter
battery.
All batteries have a limited service life that depends on how the battery is
maintained, among other things. Below 10.5V a vehicle battery (lead battery) is
regarded as exhaustively discharged and may suffer irreversible damage if stored
for a long period. The charger is unable to charge batteries that are damaged or
defective (e.g. cell short circuit).
WARNING! Read and understand the warnings before setup and
charging.
WARNING! Do not use for charging lithium ion phosphate rechargeable
batteries (e.g. LiFeP04) or other lithium rechargeable batteries.
WARNING! Not for recharging non-rechargeable batteries.
