Operation
(BATTERY %). Use this button to switch
between the following displays:
Battery %: shows the charging progress
of the connected battery in percent.
Voltage: shows the voltage of the
connected battery.
Alternator % check: Output power of the
alternator in percent.
Battery type button
2
:
Use this button
to set the battery type to be charged. You
can choose between different battery types.
The battery type must be correctly set before
starting the charging process:
12 V – regular: These batteries (lead-acid
batteries) are usually used in cars, trucks
and motorcycles. They have venting caps
and are often marked as “low-mainte-
nance” or “no maintenance”. This battery
type is meant for transferring energy
quickly (e.g. starting an engine).
“Regular” batteries should not be
used for “Deep – Cycle” applications.
12 V Deep Cycle: These batteries are
usually also marked as “Deep – Cycle”
or “Marine”. Batteries of this type are
usually larger than other battery types.
This supplies less short-term energy,
but a longer-term energy transmission.
These batteries can withstand a large
number of discharge cycles.
12 V – AGM/gel: The AGM battery
types are usually good deep – cycle bat-
teries. They have the best “service life”
when they are recharged before they
have been discharged by more than
50 %. At complete discharge they can
withstand about 300 charge cycles.
The battery type GEL is similar to the
battery type AGM. The voltage during
recharging is lower than in other lead-
acid batteries. If you use the wrong car
battery charger for a gel battery,
a reduced output or shorter service life
can be expected.
6 V – regular: Choose this mode for
commercial rechargeable 6-V batteries.
Note:
If you connect a 12 V car battery
to a car battery charger and the car battery
charger automatically detects it as a 6 V
battery, it can be assumed that this 12 V car
battery is faulty and needs to be replaced.
Charge-start button
3
:
Use this button
to switch between the following options and
start the charging process:
Fast Charge:
fast charging
Normal charge:
normal charging
(normal speed)
Start:
briefly supplies 75 Ampere to
bridge batteries with a weak charge
or flat 12 V batteries for the purpose
of starting the engine
Note:
In the Fast Charge mode the charger
automatically switches to maintenance
charging after a successful charging process
(the “Charged” LED lights up in green in the
digital display
6
), provided the car battery
charger remains connect to the battery and
mains current.
Attention:
Mode can only be terminated
by pulling the mains plug
7
or by
repeatedly pressing the charge start button
3
(repeated pressing until no mode is
displayed).
Note:
If the “Charged” LED in the digital
display
6
lights up in green, the battery
is sufficiently charged and a repeated fast
or normal charging process is no longer
permitted.
