Danger of explosion and fire! 

Make

sure that explosive and flammable
substances e.g. petrol or solvents can
be ignited when using the charging
station!

Danger of chemical burns! 

Protect your

eyes and skin against chemical burns
caused by acid (sulphuric acid) upon
contact with the battery! Do not look
directly at the connected battery and
use the following: acid-resistant safety
glasses, protective clothing and gloves!
If your eyes or skin come into contact
with sulphuric acid, rinse the affected
part of the body with plenty of clear
running water and seek immediate
medical assistance!

Protect yourself from an electric
shock!

When connecting the charging

station, use a screwdriver and a span-
ner with an insulated handle!

• Only use the charging station for

charging and discharging undamaged
12 V lead batteries 
(with electrolyte solution or gel)!

• Do not use the charging station for

charging or trickle-charging batteries
without recharging properties.

• Do not use the charging station for

charging or trickle-charging a dama-
ged or frozen battery!

• In case of permanently installed bat-

teries, make sure that the vehicle is
not in use and is in a secure, stationa-
ry position! Switch off the ignition
and select a parking position, apply
the parking brake (e.g. cars)or a 
retaining rope (e.g. boats)! 

• When connecting the charging station

to the battery, avoid short-circuiting.
Connect the minus pole connecting
cable only to the minus pole of the
battery or to the car body. Connect
the plus pole connecting cable only 
to the plus pole of the battery!

• Before connecting to the mains, make

sure that the mains current is equip-
ped with standard 230 V ~ 50 Hz, PEN
conductor, a 16 A fuse and a residual-
current circuit-breaker! 

• Only touch the power cord 

in the

insulated area at the power plug
upon contact with the socket outlet
with earthing contact!

• Only touch the pole connecting cables  

("–" und "+") in the insulated area!

• Only connect to the battery and the

socket outlet with earthing contact 
of the mains if it is fully protected
against moisture! 

• Only carry out the assembly, mainte-

nance and servicing of the charging
station when it is disconnected from
the power supply!

• Do not position the charging station

near a fire or subject it to heat or to
long-term temperatures exceeding
50° C! The output capacity of your
charging station is automatically
reduces at high temperatures.

• Do not damage any leads or con-

nections for fuel, electricity, brake
systems, hydraulics, water or tele-
communications when attaching 
the charging station with bolts!
Otherwise there will be a danger 
to life and limbs!

• Make sure that the plus pole connec-

ting cable has no contact with the
fuel line (e.g. petrol line)!
