Charging program for frost
Special charging program for 12 V batteries of 14 Ah to 120 Ah capacity for
temperatures below 0 °C. Effective charging using a higher charging voltage
and high rate of charge. Indicated by a snowflake symbol.
Battery charge retention mode
As soon as the battery is fully charged, the battery charger automatically
switches over to charge retention mode. This is appropriately shown in the
display by the full battery symbol.
Reactivation charging mode
If the charge measured in the battery is between 7.3 and 10.5 volt, this is a
critical range since with a voltage at the bottom end of this range it is not clear
whether the battery is a fully-charged 6 V battery (which can register a voltage
of 7.3 V) or a deep-discharged 12 V battery. If you try to start charging a
battery, a pause of 1.5 minutes is initiated, after which the unit performs another
check measurement.
If after the 1.5 minutes, the voltage registers between 7.5 and 10.5 volts, the
battery is recognised as a 12 V battery and the charging process commences
with a gentle impulse charge in motorbike mode, to reactivate the battery.
Disconnecting the charger
Caution:
first of all, remove the mains plug from the socket, and observe the
sequence of disconnection. In this way you avoid the generation of sparks. As
charging the battery can produce highly explosive gas, this is extremely
important for your own safety.
Disconnect the charger from the power supply.
Next, remove the black clip connection (negative) from the battery. Now remove
the battery clip from the positive battery terminal (red clip).
7. Maintenance
Provided it is used only for its intended purpose, the unit is maintenance free.
Clean the unit with care, using a dry cloth.
If either casing or cable displays signs of damage, disconnect it immediately
from the power supply and contact the manufacturer or your supplier.
