Operating manual Cruise 2.0
• Serial and parallel configured batteries must always have the same
charge condition. That is why you must use only the same type of
batteries in configurations (same capacity, same age, same
manufacturer, same charge condition) and fully charge each battery
separately in your charger before you connect it up. Differences in the
charge condition can lead to extremely high compensatory currents or
overloads that overload the cables and connectors or the battery itself.
In extreme cases, this can cause fires and injuries.
• The cable cross-section for battery configurations must be at least
25 mm
2
. We recommend a cable cross-section of 5 mm
2
.
• Make sure the battery poles are clean and corrosion-free.
• To fix them to the battery poles, tighten the screws on the terminals
securely.
