is displayed to indicate whether or not the battery has been recovered on the basis of voltage or current absorption. This mode
has 6 charging steps, as described below:
STEP 1: Analysis 1. If the battery output is more than 3V, the unit proceeds with the next step. Outputs below 3V will
cause the device to revert to stand-by.
STEP 2: Pre-charge. The charge starts at a constant current, until the battery voltage reaches 13V.
STEP 3: Deep cycle charging. The battery charges until the set limit value is reached.
STEP 4: Constant voltage. Keeps the battery at the charging end voltage.
STEP 5: Buffer. The voltage falls to the maintenance level and the charging cycle is completed. The green FULL LED will
turn
on.
STEP 6: Pulsed current cycle. Pulsed battery maintenance cycle (over long periods).
ATTENTION: Because of the high voltage reached during this charging cycle, the battery recovery process must be
performed with the battery disconnected from the vehicle. Recovery with the battery connected to the vehicle may result in
damage to the vehicle’s electronics.

6.5.3.
Saving Settings
The battery charger saves the settings made on the front control panel. In the event of an accidental power loss or voluntary power off,
when the charger is restarted, it will restart with the latest saved settings. With the battery charger set to the
FLASH
mode, the work
cycle will resume automatically when the power supply is restored. Whereas in the
CHARGE
mode, the screen will display
the message
ER01
, and the
START/STOP
key will have to be pressed, to resume the normal charge cycle.
6.5.4.
Battery Analysis
The analysis stages within the operating modes may terminate with the signalling of some errors.
Damaged Battery: the
‘’Fault’’
LED switches on and the
‘’Start / Stop’’
LED switches off, and the charger enters Standy-by
mode. The display shows the message
‘’Errx’’
where ‘x’ is the number corresponding to the cause of the error (see Table 1).
Single two second audible warning.
Polarity reversal: the
‘’Reverse’’
LED switches on, and the display shows the message ‘’Err7’’ with a two second audible
warning.
