zIntroduction
Congratulations! You have purchased one of our high-quality products. Please familiarise
yourself with the product before using it for the first time. Read the following original
operating and safety instructions carefully. This product must be set up or used only by
people who have been trained to do so.
zIntended use
The Ultimate Speed ULG 17 A1 is a car battery charger with pulse maintenance charge (chip software),
used for charging and maintenance charging and suitable for the following 6V or 12V lead batteries
(batteries) with electrolyte solution, AGM batteries, lead-acid batteries, deep cycle (e.g. boat batteries)
or gel batteries:
 For car and motorcycle batteries with 12 V / 6 V and 8–250 Ah capacity
You can also regenerate discharged batteries (depending on the battery type). The car battery charger has
a safety circuit against sparking and overheating. Keep these instructions in a safe place. Ensure you hand
over all documentation when passing the product on to anyone else. Any use that differs to the intended
use as stated above is prohibited and potentially dangerous. Damage or injury caused by misuse or disre-
garding the above warning is not covered by the warranty or any liability on the part of the manufacturer.
The device is not intended for commercial use. Commercial use will void the guarantee.

* = Return current means the current that the car battery charger consumes from the battery when no
mains current is connected.
Changes to technical and visual aspects of the product may be made as part of future developments
without notice. Accordingly, no warranty is offered for the physical dimensions, information and speci-
fications in these operating instructions. The operating instructions cannot therefore be used as the basis
for asserting a legal claim.
PLEASE NOTE: The maximum load current essentially depends on the internal resistance of the
connected battery. This internal resistance is determined by the following factors: ages, capacity and
type of connected battery.
zSafety instructions
KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN!
 DANGER! Avoid danger to life and danger of injury from
improper use!

8GB
 CAUTION! Do not operate the device with a damaged cable,
mains cable or mains plug. Damaged mains cables pose danger
to life from electric shock.
 In case of damage, the mains cable must only be repaired by
authorized and trained specialists! Contact the service point of
your country if you need any repairs!
 RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Ensure that the vehicle is not in
operation if the battery is installed firmly in the vehicle! Switch off the
ignition and put the vehicle into the parking position, with the parking
brake engaged (e.g. car) or the rope attached (e.g. boat)!
 RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Disconnect the car battery
charger from the mains before removing the connection terminals.
 First connect the connection terminal that is not connected to the
car body.
 Connect the other connection terminal to the car body away from
the battery and the petrol line.
 Connect the car battery charger to the supply grid only after doing
this.
 Disconnect the car battery charger from the supply grid after
charging.
 Only then disconnect the connection terminal from the car body.
Then disconnect the connection terminal from the battery.
 RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Only touch the pole
connection cables (“–” and “+”) in the insulated area!
 RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Conduct the connection to
the battery and the socket of the mains grid completely protected
from moisture!
 RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Perform installation, servicing
and maintenance of the car battery charger only when the mains
current is not connected!
 RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! First disconnect the
negative pole connection cable (black) of the car battery charger
from the negative pole of the battery upon completing the charging
and trickle charging process, if the battery is continually connected
in the vehicle.

GB 9
 Do not leave any toddlers or children unsupervised around the
car battery charger!
 Children cannot assess possible dangers in use of electrical
devices. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the device.
 This device may be used by children aged 8 years and older,
and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities,
or a lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised or
have been instructed in how to use the device safely and understand
the dangers that may arise when using it. Do not allow children to
play with the device. Cleaning and day-to-day maintenance must not
be performed by children without supervision.
 EXPLOSION HAZARD! Protect yourself from highly
explosive oxyhydrogen reactions! Gaseous hydrogen can escape
during charging or maintenance charging of the battery. Oxyhydro-
gen is a potentially explosive mix of gaseous hydrogen and oxygen.
The oxyhydrogen reaction occurs on contact with open fire (flames,
smouldering or sparks)! Perform charging and maintenance charg-
ing in a weather-protected space that is ventilated well. Ensure that
there are no naked flames (flames, embers or sparks) during charg-
ing or maintenance charging!
 EXPLOSION AND FIRE HAZARDS! Ensure that explosive
or flammable substances, such as petrol or solvents cannot be
ignited when you are using the car battery charger!
 EXPLOSIVE GASES! Avoid flames and sparks!
 Ensure sufficient ventilation when charging.
 Put the battery onto a well-ventilated surface when charging.
Otherwise, the device can be damaged.
 EXPLOSION HAZARD! Ensure that the positive pole
connection cable has no contact with a fuel line (e.g. petrol line)!
 DANGER OF CAUSTIC BURNS! Protect your eyes and skin
from caustic burns from the acid (sulphuric acid) when it comes
into contact with the battery!
 Use: acid-resistant safety goggles, clothing and gloves! If your eyes
or skin have come into contract with the sulphuric acid, flush the
affected body region with plenty of clear, running water and seek
medical advice at once!

10 GB
 Avoid electrical short circuits when connecting the car battery
charger to the battery. Connect the negative pole connection
cable only to the negative pole of the battery or the car body.
Connect the positive pole connection cable only to the positive
pole of the battery!
 Before connecting to the mains, verify the mains power has the
required 230 V~ 50 Hz, neutral lead, a 16 A fuse and an ELCB
switch (earth leakage circuit breaker)! Otherwise, the device can
be damaged.
 Do not use the car battery charger near any fires, heat and long-
term temperatures above 50°C! For higher temperatures, the output
power of the car battery charger will drop automatically.
 Only use the car battery charger with the original parts it was
delivered with!
 Do not cover the car battery charger with any objects!
Otherwise, the device can be damaged.
 Protect the electrical contact surfaces of the battery from short circuit!
 Only use the car battery charger for the charging and maintenance
charging of undamaged 6V/12V lead batteries (with electrolyte
solution or gel)! Otherwise, property damage may be the conse-
quence.
 Do not use the car battery charger for the charging and
maintenance charging of non-rechargeable batteries.
Otherwise, property damage may be the consequence.
 Do not use the car battery charger for the charging and
maintenance charging of damaged or frozen batteries!
Otherwise, property damage may be the consequence.

nance of your battery prior to connecting the car battery charger!
Otherwise, there is a danger of injury and/or the risk of damage
to the device.
 Before connecting the car battery charger to a battery that is
continually connected to the vehicle, learn about compliance with
the electrical safety and maintenance in the original operating
instructions of the vehicle! Otherwise, there is a danger of injury
and/or the risk of property damage.
 Disconnect the car battery charger from the mains current when it
is not is use, to protect the environment as well! Note that power is
consumed in standby operation as well.
 Always pay attention and be aware of what you are doing.
Proceed reasonably and do not put the car battery charger into
