6 Technical description
6.1 Function
A fuse protects the device from damage if the polarity is reversed. For the
type and rating of the fuse in your device, see chapter “Technical data” on
page 52.
eCaution
The device's fuse may only be replaced by qualified personnel who
are familiar with the risks involved and the relevant regulations.
INote
You can use a temperature sensor (accessory) to protect the bat-
tery from damage from extreme outdoor temperatures. The tem-
perature sensor is attached to the battery and connected to the
IU0U automatic charger. It protects the battery by adjusting the
charging voltage to the temperature of the battery (see chapter
“Charging characteristics” on page 47).
