PO4) batteries;
reprogramming and self-diagnosis.
The electronic battery charger must not be
used for the following operations:
use on batteries other than 12V
use outside the technical specifications
contained in the TECHNICAL DATA table;
use in humid or wet environments, or in
bad weather;
use for any applications other than
stated ones.
WORK AREA SAFETY
Do not operate the battery charger in
environments containing potentially
explosive atmospheres or inflammable
materials, because sparks may be gene-
rated, which can ignite the due or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away
from your workplace while operating the
battery charger.
Distractions from other people can cause
you to lose control over the battery char-
ger during use.
Do not inhale any harmful gases that may
be released by the battery of the motor
vehicle while working on the engine.
During connection operations, keep your
face away from the motor vehicle batte-
ry. The battery contains corrosive liquid;
in the event of accidental contact with
your skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
water and seek medical advice.
Do not drop any metal tools on the mo-
tor vehicle battery: it may short-circuit.
Use the battery charger in a dry area,
avoiding humidity.
Battery charger safety
Before use, check that the battery charger
has not been damaged, and that there are
no uncovered cables or worn parts.
Do not use the battery charger when
damaged, to avoid the risk of electric
shocks; do not try to open or modify it.
Connect the power supply cable of the
battery charger to the mains socket, ma-
king sure that the mains voltage matches
the voltage stated on the power supply
device. (See TECHNICAL DATA table)
After use, do not leave the battery char-
ger connected to the mains socket for a
long time.
Do not damage the electronic circuit of
the battery charger.
Personnel safety
Stay alert; watch what you are doing. Do
not use the battery charger while tired
ir under influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medications.
Always use the following personal pro-
tective equipment:
safety shoes;
eye protection;
protective gloves against physical agents
Use the battery charger in well-aired, dry
rooms.
Never allow the clips of the clamps
(positive-red and negative-black) to touch
together.
Check that the cables of the battery
charger are kept away from fans, moving
parts and the fuel pipe.
Do not wear loose clothing, jewellery or
metal objects when working on the motor
vehicle.
Before replacing the battery charger,
make sure that it has cooled to room
temperature.
Battery charger use and care
Do not put any objects into any slots or
openings on the surface of the battery
charger.
Do not use the battery charger if the case,
the clamps, the cables or the power sup-
ply cable have been damaged, if it gives
off unusual smells or too much heat.
Do not modify the battery charger. This
can reduce the effectiveness of safety
measures and increase operator risk.
Have the battery charger repaired only
through a trained repair person and only
using original replacement parts.
Before carrying out any operations, turn
off the lights of the motor vehicle and cut
out any running accessories.
Always check that the voltage of the
battery charger matches the voltage of
the motor vehicle’s system, to prevent
explosions, damage to the motor vehic-
le, the battery charger and people.
Always connect the output lead with
red clamp (+) to the positive post of the
battery, and the output lead with black
clamp (-) to the motor vehicle’s chassis.
Never reverse polarity; reversed polari-
ty can cause explosions or damage to
the motor vehicle, the battery charger
and people.
