1 INSTALLATION
The charger must be placed in a well ventilated position to allow air fl ow to cool the
charger for greater charging effi ciency. The charger is best placed on top of the air fi lter
if charging the battery in the vehicle. If that is not possible then fi nd a convenient safe
place where the charger is secure and not likely to fall down.
NOTE
: Never place the charger on top of the battery.
Leave the vent caps closed as modern automotive batteries have a gas recombination
design built into the cap to allow the retention of the gassed electrolyte and its return to
the battery cell. All vent caps also have a venting system to allow excessive gasses to
escape. Coin screwed cap designs also have a “manifold” venting system, which works
in the same way as a screwed vent cap.
1.1 Connections
Ensure the connections are tight and sound. Then connect the 240VAC three pin plug
to the power point and switch on the power. Then switch on the Smart Battery Charger
power switch (located on the rear panel).
Once turned ON, the charger will pause momentarily, then light up all the indicators in a
sequence so you can see that they are all functional. The cooling fan will also be run up
and tested during this sequence.
