•
Your battery is therefore not suitable for use with electric outboards
or other applications with a continuous load of over 10A.
•
It is not possible to connect two batteries together in parallel for
higher capacity or in series for higher voltage
•
Long-term use in high temperatures (> 40 ° C) has a negative
influence on service life. When exposed to high temperatures the
battery will shut itself down until a normal operating temperature is
reached.
Guidelines for use
Discharging
Fully discharging your battery is not harmful. The battery is protected by
an advanced integrated BMS (battery management system). Charge the
battery as soon as possible after a full discharge; due to low self-
discharge (~ 2% per month) voltage may drop below critical levels and
damage the battery irreversibly.
Charging
Only use the battery charger that came with your package! You can top-
up or partly charge your battery whenever you so desire. The battery
cannot be charged at temperatures of 0°C and lower.
Battery charger
Before you connect the power cord to an outlet, first connect the charger
to the battery by connecting the red (+) and black (-) clamp connectors to
the battery terminals. Disconnect the power cord before disconnecting the
charger. The charge status is indicated through the LED’s on the charger.
Read the sticker warnings the charger and follow the instructions!
BMS and safety
The BMS protects your battery and contributes towards a long service
life. Functions of the BMS are protection against deep discharge,
overcharge, too high or too low temperatures and high currents. When
certain safety thresholds are exceeded the battery will shutdown as a
precaution, and will turn itself on when the battery operates within
specification. If this does not happen automatically you need to
disconnect your fish finder or other equipment in order to reset the
battery. After a few minutes you can reconnect your equipment.
Warranty
Your battery has a standard 2 year warranty from date of purchase. The
other components in the package have a warranty of 1 year. Refer to our
