CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP 1 - Connecting the battery charger to your battery
•
Simply push the round charger plug into the battery charge socket of your
wheelchair or scooter, ensuring the pins are not stressed and lined up straight and
correctly.
STEP 2 - Connect the battery charger to AC mains (220-240Vac) power and turn ON
•
Switch the battery charger ON and the charger will automatically start.
(Note: If the Fault Indicator LED illuminates or flashes Red, please check your
connections and refer to the LED status indicator table on page 6.)
THE CHARGING PROCESS:
1) Soft Start Charging - Orange Charging LED Flashing
Gently charges the battery using a reduced charge output until the battery voltages
reaches 23V. If the battery voltage doesn’t reach 23V within 4 hours, the safety timer
protection will stop the unit from charging and the Red Fault LED will start flashing.
2) Bulk Charging - Orange Charging LED ON
Uses the maximum charge output (8A) until the battery voltage reaches 29.0V.
If the battery voltage doesn’t reach 29.0V within 16 hours, the safety timer protection
will stop the unit from charging and the Red Fault LED will start flashing.
3) Absorption Charging - Orange Charging LED ON
Uses a constant voltage while reducing the charging output current to ensure the
battery receives a full charge without overcharging the battery.
4) Float Mode - Full / Float Green LED ON
This stage allows you to keep the charger connected 24/7 to ensure your battery is
well maintained and kept 100% fully charged. Float mode will maintain the battery at
a constant 27.4V.
Note: Check electrolyte levels if possible after charging as they may need topping up with distilled
water. (This does not apply to sealed maintenance free batteries)
