Introduction
Dear Customer!
Your MEC MCC-40 charger is a state-of-the-art product. The MCC-40 is ideal for quick charging and the safe
storage
of your motorcycle starter battery over the winter.
The MCC-40 is dust- and water-resistant in accordance with protection class IP65 and has an installed temperature
sensor that charges your battery based on the ambient conditions. Five charging programmes for different types of
batteries are stored in the charger and can be selected at the click of a button. When plugged in, the MCC-40 checks
the charge status every 7 days and recharges the battery if necessary. This makes the MCC-40 ideal for the safe
storage of your motorcycle starter battery over the winter.
The charger has a safety and EMC certificate and meets all the applicable national and European requirements. The
relevant conformity documentation is available from the manufacturer. Please carefully read through the operating
instructions and pay attention to these instructions before first using your MEC MCC-40 motorcycle battery charger.

Operating instructions

Safety information
• Please read the operating instructions prior to initial use and store well for future reference.
• The MCC-40 battery charger is designed for 12V lead-based batteries and 12V lithium-iron-phosphate
(LiFePO4) batteries. The charger must not be used for other batteries.
• Only use the pole terminal adapter supplied by MEC when directly connecting the charger to the battery pole
terminals. Please pay attention to the polarity of the terminals.
• Before using the battery charger, use the vehicle documents to confirm the polarity, ground connection,
maintenance information and the battery type in your vehicle. The polarity on your vehicle must match the in-
formation on the charger. The battery type must match the selected recharging program.
• Make sure that the power supply connection complies with the national directives for electrical connections.
• Before initial start-up, check whether the mains voltage indicated on the name plate matches the available
supply
voltage. The mains supply must be protected with max. 16A.
• WARNING: Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
• WARNING: Never recharge a frozen starter battery.
• Check all cables and connections for damage before start-up. Defective or damaged cables may only be re-
paired or replaced by MEC or specialist workshops commissioned by MEC.
• Ensure that the cables are never jammed or mechanically damaged.
• Do not open the charger.
• WARNING: Explosive gases may be generated while charging! Ensure that there is adequate ventilation while
charging and prevent the formation of sparks and other sources of
ignition near the battery.
• Do not position the charger above or on top of the starter battery.
• Make sure that the charger is not covered while charging.
• WARNING: Battery acid is corrosive and may cause property damage and personal injury. In the event of di-
rect
contact with skin or eyes, immediately rinse with plenty of clean water and contact a doctor.
• Please always wear appropriate work clothes, protective gloves and safety glasses when working with lead-
based batteries.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or in-
struction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall
not
play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
• The charger may only be stored and used out of the reach of children or unauthorised individuals.
• Keep the charger out of direct sunlight.
• During charging the battery must be placed in a well ventilated area.
• MEC is not liable for any personal injury and/or property damage as a result of improper or incorrect use.

Connection / start-up
The MEC MCC-40 battery charger is designed for 12V lead-based or 12V lithium (LiFePO4) starter batteries.
The battery charger is delivered with "Universal" charging profile. This profile allows all conventional lead-based and
lithium-iron-phosphate starter batteries to be safely recharged. To ensure the optimal recharging of the starter battery, a
special charging profile can be selected for WET, GEL, AGM and lithium (LiFePO4), which is saved when the power is
disconnected.
Start-up
1. Match the polarity on the vehicle to the polarity on the charger using the vehicle documents.
a. Polarity on the 12mm DIN-ISO 4165 charging plug:
b. Pole terminal adapter:
c. If the charging socket polarity does not match the charging plug polarity on the battery charger, the pole
terminal adapter must be used to recharge the starter battery directly.
2. Check the battery type using the vehicle documents or the manufacturer information on the battery.
a. If the battery type cannot be clearly identified, please use the "Universal" charging program.
3. Connect the power cable (AC) to the mains socket.
4. Select the battery type.
5. Connect the charging plug to the motorcycle, or connect the pole terminals to the battery, paying attention to the
polarity.
6. Recharging starts and ends automatically.
7. If the battery charger remains connected to the mains as well as to motorcycle/battery, the charge status will be
checked after 7 days (168 hours) and the recharging will commence automatically if required.
