Battery analysis and fault signals:

Chargers are capable of checking the battery status prior to and during charging and indicating any connec-
tion faults between the charger and the battery to be charged. The following indications can appear in the 
event of faults during charging:

Display message 

Cause

Solution

Terminals are not connected 
correctly to the battery.  Possible 
reverse polarity.

Connect the terminals correctly and 
restart charging (see “Charger use”).

Battery voltage too high (attempt to 
charge a 24 V battery).

Check battery voltage range.

Battery charge capacity too high.

Use a charger with a greater charge 
capacity.

Battery is incapable of retaining a 
good charge level. 

Battery may be faulty. 

Heavily discharged battery is not 
rechargeable.

Battery may be faulty. 

Battery voltage too weak, not 
rechargeable. Charging of batteries 
under 0.8 V is impossible.

Battery may be faulty. 

Cable disconnected or short 
circuited.

Connect the terminals correctly and 
restart charging (see “Charger use”)

Complete short circuit on battery.

Battery may be faulty.
